I was just curious. I know the site started many years ago. I myself joined 9/02 (my name changed- uses to be Sept20yay!). Is anyone still around who was a member then? Who is the furthest back member? I know a lot of people left and some people stopped posting and lurk, but just wondering...
I'll be here three years in January... funny thing is when I joined I was living at home and we had dial up internet service on an old computer so it took forever to post, so I hardly ever did. Once I got married and had DSL I definitely started posting more.

Re: Anyone on the site for many years now?
I think i found the site right before my wedding, like prob 8/02. My name got lost along the re-launch tho (it was catchL22, close!). Its fun to kill some lunchtime downtime, once in a blue moon i pop on to see what's going on....

I think I joined in March 02 under a different name but had Ron change it. I have fond memories of the stick thread and the may thread!

Re: Anyone on the site for many years now?
I remember that GTG in the Italian restaurant in Midtown. Niecey, I accosted you that day about your make up person. Your makeup was great at your wedding. There have been so many cool moments on this board.
What now, I remember a whole fiasco with your wedding. The board was in an uprising because RCC closed like the month before your wedding or something and never told you! Everyone was trying to help out! Frantically!
Oh and, remember that idiot videographer that went to jail and we helped to bust him like magnum PI. ... The good old days.
When I got here, you had brides helping brides, newleyweds and grooms helping grooms (never got used). No homes, parenting, 2003, 2004, 2005, all the other boards.... Those are all fairly new.

BTW my DH started the Grooms Helping Grooms (he begged for it) but b/c it was just him and Matt Hos at the time, they didn't use it and DH stopped posting. Every now and then you'll PunkRockGroom post something!

Re: Anyone on the site for many years now?
I discovered this site in 2001, and it looked a lot different than it does now! I lurked for two months before I actually posted, so I guess I've been 'on the site' since May of 2001. After I got married, I didn't log on for 2 years and then when my best friend got engaged, I introduced her to this site, and signed back on as Matron. Funny thing is that I posted like 30 posts under my old name (while I was getting married) and I have like a million now (as a MOH). I think I'm one of the 'oldest' people on here!

Can you believe there was still drama back then? Mark Kaufman used to be able to post on the brides forum. Actually I think there was only one forum at that time. The format is so different from back then.....
OMG, I remember that!!!!!
I totally remember this too!

Ambers mom, I didn't know you were the old Shamee???????????
OMG! :)
I have no idea how long I was here, but I am thinking the end of 2000. I remember Anna, MichelleW, Michele, Claud were all here before me!
