Who is the 1st Member of This site?

[tygrus2000]

Just out interest, who has been a registered member of this site the longest and still has an active account, moderators and creators of the site notwithstanding.

Tygrus

[twodogs]

Probably someone who posted when the forum looked like this... (Aug 2000)

I think all the votes are in- the winner, by TKO is (drumroll) Baldrick!(applause)

Where did you did that screenshot up?

[tygrus2000]

I can vaguely remember that site outline but there was still 136 registered members of the site almost 3 years ago according to that screenshot. Thats pretty good but things sure have come a long way.

[tygrus2000]

I was wondering about just normal members here trying to learn from scratch, not the moderators.

Vitualis might be close, he joined on the 1st october 2000.

First look of this site in May 1999

https://www.videohelp.com/old/may1999.htm

By June of 1999 it progressed to this:

By aug. 1999 it was really rocking:

May 2000 - the site started to look almost like today in a way

https://www.videohelp.com/old/may2000.htm

couple of revamps throughout 2000 and early 2001

https://www.videohelp.com/old/august2000.htm



current look (with some further modifications) came about in sept through dec 2001

[tygrus2000]

hmmm, I thought Vitualis is a moderator or was one at some time before.

I've never seen the 1999 site format before, but it still looks good in my opinion.

Wow, SatStorm has been here a long time- No 15 no less!

[Craig Tucker]

More like no 7. The first 8 entries have an error where they have no joined date. I remember Baldrick saying this glitch may have happened when he changed forums.

[pacmania_2001]

Member #700 (or #692 if you dont count the first 8 )

[tgpo]

It seems like as for still active members that SatStorm is the earliest next to Baldrick.

[tenders]

there should be some kind of time limit(say6months),whereby the user should have to make at least 1 post,or their membership gets deleted and they have to sign up again. this way the guys way down at the bottom gets to move up

[tgpo]

Actually most forums do that. I'm not sure why we don't here.

it would clean up nicely

[SLK001]

I thought that we at one time lost all membership information - about the time the board had to shut down for a while.

I would be interested to see who has the most posts per day if thats possible....it'd be cool to see who the most active user is.

Writing that guide was fun. I'm thinking about doing a whole series.

I think that BJ_M is one of the most active posters. I think that he has one of the highest post per day rates.

[tygrus2000]

Is 61,000 members in 3 years a good amount for a site like this?

How does that compare to similar learning/info. forums?

[BJ_M]

Tommyknocker and housepig i think are the highest per day - for people on the board more than 1 month

not really, but the image does not appear for me would be interested to see it tho

[tgpo]

It didn't load for me either. I didn't start poking around here until late 2001/early 2002. So the site looked then pretty close to how it looks now.
