Been here a long, long time.. when the Q did changes it took almost all my posts and my original registration date. Gosh back then we had a chatroom and it was so much fun... I'd say it was back in the early 2000's?

I am here ten or eleven years.

Miss some of the old posters who do not post anymore, and of course the ones who passed on.

Lost all that start up info when everything got switched. Wonder if we can find that out somehow. Time flies and I'll bet it's longer than I think.

It will be 10 years for me this coming September. Hard to believe.....

I would like to add that the info on me is all wet...... I came on here in 2007, and know I have many many more posts than they show. Yes, the change over really messed some of us up.

I first posted February 2006?

I was here a while before that.

The Q took a lot of my post count away.

I spent countless mindless hours working for those numbers!

Kidding, I never cared about post count.

Ironically I came in and complained about something.

I say that only because when people do that now they get jumped on lol!

I don't remember what my first post was here, but I do remember being completely baffled by the immediate jumping all over me. It wasn't anything controversial or anything. I also remember thinking that everyone here was around my age -- haha. I had no idea that people my parents' age were on online forums.

I have absolutely no idea how long I've been on the boards. Just not something I track on, I guess.

96 or 97. I didn't post much because I was too busy with the kids.

Ha! I'm probably your grandparents age!

My grandparents are all gone.

They would be in their 80s today if they were still alive.

I've been here longer than the date on my avatar states.I can't recall the exact year.

My first post was on the old, World News and Views board. I asked a simple question, and people dove in from all, directions duking it out

I never saw the like. It was a rockum ,sockum forum. I made good friends there. Sometimes I agreed with them ,and sometimes not. It wasn't for the faint of heart. I miss it ,and most of the posters who are gone. Some passed away, and some moved on

Way longer, years longer than my date shows. Like Smoky, when I joined there was also a chat room.

Re: Next month....

Zhills — Mon, 19 Dec 2016 20:01:07 GMT

Joined because someone had asked for "1-2-3 Sugar Cookies" but couldn't find it once I joined. Did not come back for years.

Long enough to like the old format better!

Happy Anniversary, @Mellie32!

I have been here from 2004 or earlier. I do have a few recipes saved from here, and they are dated 2004, so I have been here at least that long.
