About a year and a half posting. But, I talk a lot and like to post sillies. {#emotions_dlg.laugh} I think I read for a couple of years before I started.

I've been reading a lot too, always a little wary of posting my opinions. But, I've gotten more confident and have been doing a few posts when I thought my response would be helpful.

I don't know who the oldest poster is. I think Topaz Gem was here when it was Shop Talk.

Correct, I've been here since Day 1. I think Lion is another poster who was here during the ShopTalk days. I'm trying to remember how I found out about these forums. Possibly the hosts mentioned it on air and I investigated. When ShopTalk first started, they also had a live chat as did HSN, but it didn't catch on like the forums did. Anyway, I have enjoyed my time here even with all the drama, LOL. Wink

Hi, Topaz.

I think Magenta has been around for a long time too.

I know what you mean. I think some of that drama kept me away from posting sometimes. But, overall I enjoy it.

Since it was Shop Talk, sometime in the 1990's.

I think it was around 2004.....even though my registration date says 2006....it changed during an ""update"" here.

You can't always go by the number of posts. Some people stop participating for a while and then come back.

I wasn't here when it was Shop Talk, but soon afterward. I know I was using a "Prodigy" email address at the time and not sure how long they have been defunct and I think I had a "Compaq" computer that I got from QVC. It has been so long ago and I really don't pay attention that much about it.
