On GI, Residents are those who've decided to take part in the community, and therefore have joined us by registering a complimentary Petname (username) with us. We think of GI in very Familial terms, but Residency seems more accurate than "Family member", because that implies a connection that not everyone feels with everyone else.

Residents can be contrasted with Visitors in terms of what features and features and toys are available to them.
