Im talking about join dates people, although my post count isnt very high as for two years I couldn't log onto novaload (still to this day an unknown reason). I may have lost some post count during novaload / png site updates etc back in the day.
But anywho, I noticed my join date on my profile, I joined in July 2002 :eek: Almost 7 years!
So go on, post up your 'Join Dates' lets see who's been a member the longest...
:thumb:
EDIT: Post up you actual date so its clear i.e. JULY 2002. Then we wont have to read you profile to see when you joined. Makes life easier :)

PNG has been around for years. I've been on here since April 2003, lurked for a year or so before actually registering. Posted a little, disappeared, came back in Dec 03 to sell my Nova and didn't really leave lol
The tech refresh years ago did reset a load of join dates to unix birthday, but just looked on the memberlist and that appears to have been fixed...? [edit] no it hasn't lol

Hence unix birthday comment :p
Nova tek, possibly, although I believe some old posts were either moved to archive or simply lost in the tech refresh when the forum software was changed. That explains the "Anonymous" user as well as the reset join dates (if unix - almost all web servers run unix, windows is crap as a server tbh - doesn't recognise a date it usually just sticks in its birthday).
Ive been a member of png since it was around the first time (1993/1994)when you use to send an envelope with a cheque for your membership.
The days before the internet were so slow lol.
I can remeber going from swindon to courtney's (norfolk) to buy a second hand 1.3 sr engine after blowing mine up and that was the only place that had one.
i did come back with a few stickers so was a bit chuffed.
Ive also beem mates with Mark Watts since i was about 18/19 so nearly 15 years now and still speak to him every other week.
I found a couple of old user names of mine when looking through the member list of post i put up in may 03 asking for help, I was slightly less computer literate back then don't even think I had my own email address lol

the luton bit wasn't the problem, it was the idiots trying to work out how to wheelspin all the way to the pub, and then try to drown the noise with the music (HA!). the coordinator bloke & myself just blasted past them all & got to the pub first, then got the bonnets open & did some looking & talking, the rest opened their hatches & had a sound off.....

You've been here 2 days longer than me - you joined the 24th, I joined the 26th lol
What happened to Rach anyway?
[edit] That was marty than embedded a song? I can remember a thread with some music embedded in it... wasn't that aimed at CP? Found a mouse in his Nova...?
