As a Mainpage member
Tap20 and cv were promoted to Mainpage members on March 16th, 2021 after asking for the role from InfraRaven. FP later stated that cv and tap were promoted as "trial members" to see how well they'd do, since both of them were relatively new to the site and Membership is usually reserved for older, more trusted users. FP also referred to them as "trial mods," since members have the ability to perform certain moderation functions on the Mainpage(Ex. protecting text, rapidly wiping areas).
Upon receiving their membership, cv and Tap20 immediately began editing the Center Console, adding a large amount of links to the member-only region until the following day, when it was reversed to its previous, uncluttered state.
From then on, Tap20 would become one of the most active members, frequently protecting text and art around Spawn.
Worlds
Tap20 was known for being one of the site's most prolific world creators. Many of his worlds were nominated as World of the Day.
A few of these pages were privated, however, after Tap20 took his leave from OWOT.

Creations
Other creations by Tap20.
Pika City
In 2020, Tap20 founded Pika City(or Pikacity) at Y:100 using mostly assets pasted from the same coordinate in Your World of Text.
Countless users have added to the city since then, making it one of the largest settlements in all of OWOT, and likely the site's most well-known community project.
And though it suffered multiple griefs throughout its lifespan, Pika City remains on the Frontpage to this day as Tap20's most prominent contribution to the community.

"it doesn't feel right that I didn't give Tap20 a proper goodbye ceremony for all the work he's done on OWOT over the years"
"I think it's best that Tap20 be left alone. that's probably what he wants."

"tap20 was probably one of THE owot users of all time. he was the soul of "good" owot. he meant a lot to so many users such as I, and when he left, OWOT's soul basically shrivelled up and died."
