Did you only register in 2007?

**** you spam a lot.



In fact, add up my 11k from this account and 10k from my old one.. and I still wouldn't beat you!

It's not spam 40% of it is helpful advice

60% is sarcastic smartarsedness butwho counts that

The main problem that we encounter is the current state of the forum databases. Without detailing all of the problems, for they vary between different databases, the only realistic method of correcting these wide-ranging problems is to delete all databases and start again

That was it, the database was basically knackered. Registration had been disabled for a while and it had got to the stage that it took minutes to do any maintenance on the forums, even something as simple as deleting a post took over a minute.

It feels like I've been here forever but I'm an absolute whipper-snapper compared to some of you.

You don't realise how much the posting population changes over time until you go back and read some of the older threads. In the age of mattheman and platinum87, there is nobody to keep ibot's legacy of the worlds biggest troll alive

I lurked here on and off for years, how about this for an order from 2001:

I was here before the nuke, I bought an Iwill slocket 2 from here in 2000 for my P3 500 and joined the forums almost straight after.

The nuke was the best thing to happen here.

Saw the back of some rather unpleasant people, no I say that, that didnt happen till a while after did it?

In the great falling out.

I have some 2002 screenshots, one of the forum and a couple of the old skool store.

I'll post them up when I get home. They are on a very old CD-R

When I joined almost everyone had the Thunderbird/Duron Bundle, a couple of years after that everyone had a xp-barton with a NF7-S with a herc 9800pro (Deal of the week )

 

[Banny]

I have been here since the beginning, was on 3dfiles before that.

Been here since early 2003, cant even remember how I found the site, probalby google.

I check the site every day but I wont post unless necessary, a lot of people post too much crap to increase a post count.

 

[Jonners]

Hmmm 2002, where has all that time gone?

[semi-pro waster]

2004 here and paradoxically it seems like a very long time yet like barely any time has passed at all, here's to the next five years.

I was around although with a different name and not very active back when the forum had guns for avatars lol! Never see it mentioned in these kind of threads though so i think its an unspoken rule not to talk about it or something, anyway how long ago was that?
