How I tricked (some of) discord into thinking Golden was a FANDOM staff member

The begining
So me and p-dog reported Goldenglory4life to FANDOM for being underage. I know, I know, kind of a jerk move. But I emailed them a couple of days ago and got nothing back yet. So I decided to play a practical joke on chat in the hat discord chat.

The Prank
I kinda decided to do this prank out of the blue so I really didn't have much planned so all I did was say in chat in the hat I didn't get much response when I first said it as they were discussing fruits for an odd reason but eventually they noticed.

A quick context of chat in the hat
 * ChemicalChaos-Yoda
 * ComicRater-ComicRater
 * Henry Hudson-HenryHudson
 * ItsP-dog-P-dog
 * jaycub-me
 * Smirky-Spyroclub1
 * Swaykip-Swasimcool
 * Toxic Revival-GiantNate91
 * Williammn-GarfieldMN
 * ZachOWott-ZachOWott



I quickly realized that I needed a lot more than just my word to convince them. So I got to work on creating a fake screenshot. I pretended that I had to go eat dinner and I went offline. I needed to make a quick edit of a FANDOM email.

I am not the most experienced editor so I was having some trouble. I was also using a pretty bad editing thing which didn't help.

But I finally got it done after 15 minutes and I prayed that they wouldn't notice any of the faults.

While I was editing they kept asking for the screenshot and saying they doubted it was real so I had a tough situation on my hands.

I then posted the screenshot in chat in the hat and hoped for the best. At first it seemed like they totally believed me.

The fake email read:

"Hey there, 

'''We cannot terminate this user as he is a FANDOM staff member. We have a couple staff members posted at different wikis to see how the community is. This is one of our most serious projects as we go all out including using our staff members photos from there childhood and making fake personas.'''

As I was saying, at first it was going well. ComicRater did accuse me of photoshop but Yoda quickly shot that down saying I was too poor. I also said I had no editing experience.

Then, I realized I had made a grave mistake. I had used the wrong "there" in my email. And henry found it. I quickly backtracked saying he probably just made a grammar mistake. But Henry said in all his emails with Kirkburn he had never made a grammar mistake. Henry and ComicRater both didn't believe me but p-dog, and today still did. Then Zach came in and believed it, but I needed someone to help me so I DMed Zach telling him it was fake and I asked him to act like it looked super real. So he did that. GN eventually came on as well.

I was done by then. Everyone was pretty much leaning toward it was fake. So I finally admitted it, right as Yoda was about to post a page about it on the wiki.

So yeah. ComicRater was the one who thought it was fake the whole time. Props to him. It was a pretty crap edit so I'm surprised it lasted that long. I will add in more screenshots later.
