Yes, you're a BNF. But by the old-school definition of 'well-known and respected for contributions to fandom', not by the newer one of 'much-hated person with too much clout'. In B7 fandom, I would have to list at least Diane Gies, you, Annie and Leah as BNFs. But B7 fandom is fairly small and close-knit, so there are lots of MNFs, and the BNFs, MNFs, and LNFs all rub shoulders and share a certain kind of egalitarianism.
