Thanks again Dra! I looked under the "other" handle I used to use (Lady Jane) and I was posting in 2001! :) However, the "teach" handle didn't come in until 2003. Thanks again for such a massive undertaking! (are you a researcher by profession?)

Hi Dra! Thanks for doing that but I (Zelda then) posted much sooner than November 4, 2000. I know this because I was one of the dreaded BB Angels and posted like a mad person during BB1:) Maybe the older software will tell. I joined the first or second week (I believe) of the board. I will try to find the e-mail.

August 1st 2001, there sure were a lot of us that joined that summer. I don't even remember which BB it was, I actually joined for Survivor so I am assuming that is when the second one was about to start. I thought I was around longer than that because I quit smoking over 2 years ago and I thought I was here quite a while before I quit.

Thanks Dra for the chart, I really have no idea when I joined so it must have been then.

I remember the first thread I started "Dong Dong No more Pagong!" I remember how excited I was that people were posting in it. Isn't it funny the little things that make our heart sing! LOL

I also remember TKSoard!

I have been walking down memory lane, too. And I found this and thought it was worth sharing with all.

Wow that is so cool Granny. Sometimes I feel like such a chatterbox here. And I didn't even make a list. Yay!!!

According to Doc I started in 2002. Guess I was lurking longer than I thought.

Please notice that Gail is the one that did those charts. I just found them in the archives. Just looking at all the names reminds me of some great people that are here at this board.

I forgot about Watcher...where did she/he go? I remember reading his live feeds along with Fly's

Also haven't seen Gail in a long time

Draheid..Could you check when I started? I lurked for a while when BB first started and I don't think I actually joined in til BB2 or BB3.
Thanks!

This board has always been the easiest to navigate and read and the people are great too!

Thanks Draheid! :) I guessed right- I said summer 2001 was when I got brave enough to register and post not just lurk and sure enough- Aug. 13, 2001!! Awesome!

Reading Gail's charts brings back lots of memories. Sniff, sniff.... I still miss Car54! And I loved the Snee Party folder! :)

For anyone interested, I've just updated the list - I realized I had missed a couple of archives so I spent the day rebuilding one last time. That's it folks, it is as close to accurate as I can possibly make it and I'm sure it's still not 100%.

Member's Earliest? Posting Date

Enjoy.

The very early discussion board was hosted by Echelon Forums and is not available to us. It's gone in the dust of time. Some of the posts were captured and posted within our second discussion board, but I've looked and it and it seems it was only the Big Brother FANMAIL area and the DAILY UPDATES area.

I don't believe there are very many, if any, names listed there that still exist, except for maybe Enbwife (my other half).

Thank you Draheid for all your hard work.

Ummm...Dra? I'm still not listed. I don't want to be a pest....

Not1worry, you are listed -
NOT1WORRYJuly 30, 2002


I'm not sure if this is the exact date, but that's the earliest post I was able to find in the archives I have.

Thanks Dra!!!

I see you found my earliest post. Whoohoo! TVCH was my very first and only message board. It only took me a few weeks of Lurking to post!:)

Thanks for that listing Dra ... it's amazing to see all the people who have gone from the board, never to come back... and a bit sad as well.

I see the infamous 'Devildoll' is there on your list! How I remember her .....

I know I posted under another name way way way back, and I'm positive this was me:
MICHELLE September 14, 2000

I left for a while, then came back as:
HALF_UNIT September 2, 2001

I left again, and came back as:
HALFUNIT July 9, 2002

... this time, I haven't left! :)

Dra, sometimes you just amaze me. Okay, you never FAIL to amaze me. I am also amazed that Merlin delurked a whole 12 days ahead of me. I would have said we were withing a couple days of each other.

How cool!! I see you actually did find some posts from OnceInAWhile/August 23, 2000. I remember just sucking it up and jumping in because I was so addicted to the live feeds, and there was a big gap in the early morning time frames. I was on dial-up and had crappy feeds, but I couldn't stand knowing that people didn't know what was going on and I HAD to report it..lol The next year I had to re-register and knew I'd be posting more, so I chose Amber/July 02,2001. (Not because of Amber on Survivor though..lol)

SO, will we get to use our other names start dates? I'm fine with MGA's date too, as that is when I really started posting more in other areas of the board, but it's also an "honor" to say I was around in the early days too..
