Who's the earliest joined member?
 
Just browsing through old threads & realized I have been on this forum for nearly 19 years.
I Joined in 2001 after purchasing my 68 GTO & have been hooked every since.
Lots of info, lots of laughs, mixed in with a little venting from time to time.
I know there are active members that have been here for over 20 years now.

So who wins the longest membership award? :D

There’s a guy with a (Join Date: Jan 1970) on this forum. Winner!

Chris Casperson, CCass, 12/02/99, set-up & owns the board.
Anyone else remember Chris's early JavaScript(?) based PY Bulletin board?

Quick glance shows Jim Hand, join date 12/14/99.
Brian Baker, Dr Skip, Larry Navarro, Pontiac Dude, & David Holmberg as well as several others joined late Dec 1999. Am sure there are many who miss Jim's, David's, & Ken's contributions!

Great question. I've wondered about that myself. Does anyone hear from Holmberg anymore? And yes, I remember the old Javascript. And Rash.

I miss Jim Hands contributions. Thankfully got to listen to him speak at several events before he took a step back. Ken Keefer was a mountain of Pontiac and general performance knowledge.
I hate to ask what’s up with Holmberg?

mechanickeith 02-28-2020 11:43 PM

I joined in 02, Holmberg is still around. I talk to Cobra Bill every once in a while.

BOB VIDAN 02-28-2020 11:49 PM

12/23/99 here, gave myself an early Christmas present that keeps on giving.

Brian Baker 02-29-2020 05:24 AM

I began lurking on the old board around 1996 and joined by 1998. I naturally joined the new one when it came online in 1999 (?).

I chat with Bill weekly on FaceBook, as well as Holmberg, Keefer, Misus, the Zeeks, and Bob Dillon.

Pretty sure I joined in June of 1873.

Please ignore the erroneous date of 2012 at the upper left.

Simple Man 02-29-2020 07:27 AM

I remember the old bulletin board. And how it regularly went down the tubes.

You musta fought in the civil war! Which side?

Bob Dillon 02-29-2020 10:39 AM

I joined this new board the first day it was available (12/20/99?) and was posting here quite a few years before that.

einstein 02-29-2020 12:00 PM

I used to read the old board, but didn't join this one until mid 2001. Drifted away for a few years, and only had Bob, Holmberg and Baker on my FaceBerg. Last year I burned down my FaceBerg.

Longs 02-29-2020 12:18 PM

I've been on the board since June 2000, although not that much of a poster, as this is, according to the counter, my 138th post in 20 years.
