I actually don't think that is accurate with that username being the first ever created account. Unless the join date of "June 22nd 2009" is wrong. VGChartz was created in 2006. Though, I don't know the exact date off the top of my head. @ioi is the creator of the site and his account was created on November 27th 2006.

I like speculating too much, so here's my guess, as a software developer: Initially users didn't need a creation time attached to them - or that first user was created directly in the database, so it was initially missing creation time because of that. Later, it was decided that every user must have a creation time, and users without a creation time were assigned one arbitrarily.

The creation time part I'm less sure about, but I'd be really surprised if the numbers weren't IDs that are increased sequentially - you'd have to go out of your way to have the user with ID 1 be created after so many more users are created with larger IDs.

@VGChartzAdmin being ID 1 does make sense as the first created account.
