thanks, tishala! now, i did not see any of the first BB, so i am guessing i had emt911 as my name for the second BB, so that would have been 2001, right? because i do remember posting about will and nicole. tabbyking must have signed on in spring 2002, when i gave emt911 to my dd. i am going on the treadmill. this is giving me a headache. i still want to know what we are to do if we don't have a start date, though!

Spy, I for one am glad you did not get on BB2, because if you had you wouldn't have stuck around here.

I think I joined near the beginning of BB1. Can't remember what my other name was though. I think it was OhBrother or something like that. I was a MAJOR lurker until very recently. I remember eddiesleg too! <<shaking head and biting lip to keep from laughing>>....cut off from the action....tee hee!

I first came here by following a link someone had posted at a Yahoo Club message board for Survivor. That board had degenerated into complete chaos after weeks of technical glitches and an onslaught of rude and obnoxious posts. Then one day I spotted a message with the subject line (paraphrasing here) “Friendly place to discuss Survivor” and a link to here. “Friendly” sounded good to me so I clicked on over and what did I find? The Big Brother Fan Club - a show I hadn’t watched nor had any interest in watching. And so I left. Fast forward a little while and I hear that CBS hopes to spark interest in its upcoming BB2 by making it more like Survivor. I was baffled at what that meant and decided to see if there was any news about this online. After some fruitless searching, I remembered stumbling across the Big Brother Fan Club. Which is what brought me back here, for good this time. Oh, and I did watch BB2 - not because CBS made it more Survivor-like but because I enjoyed all the fun and witty posts here. I lurked until Survivor Africa and since then I’ve always posted as Calamity although I have had to re-register a couple times.

Could you lurk without joining? I started lurking during BB1 but didn't "come out" till BB3 so what would my date be????????

July, 2001. I found chat first and it took a few weeks for Tess and Lance to point me in the right direction. I was such a techie phobe that even though I went to the home page everytime I wanted to chat, I still had no clue what the board was, LOL.

Texannie, you can lurk without joining. The only exception to that is the member's area. You have to join to be able to get to that area.

I did the exact same thing Texannie so I guess my date is like June 2003.

What happened to the "In Memory of FlyOnTheWall" thread? Is it archived or gone? There were posts in there that had screen shots of the work in progress of the new board...(for those who have not seen it at all..) ETA: yeh, it's in the archives that have to be downloaded..

Ok..June, 2003 for me.

I am not sure. I think it was around April right before BB2. What year was that? I had sent in my tape to BB and wanted to find other that had as well. There was a nice long thread of others that were in the same situation and we analyzed the process to death.

Thanks for jogging my memory Tess! Actually, I can't believe I started your folder... I was quite challenged in doing anything but posting. I guess I lurked during BB1 and my first post was stupid and Moon let me have it... hahahaha!!

I began lurking at BBFC in August 2000 during BB1, but I'm pretty sure I didn't join/post until BB2 started.

Danzdol, that would have been April 2001 for you then. There were a bunch of people who joined right about then who auditioned for BB2 like you, Spy, Rogue and a few others. I remember sitting in chat night after night with Spy and Wargod and thanking heaven that Spy didn't get on the show with those nuts. Rg, I got bombarded from all sides at first after taking 8 months to get up my courage but apparently that didn't slow me down. Thanks again for my folder.

Here's a shot at gathering the information for her - this is based on scanning the archives and finding the earliest post by each person - hopefully these are 'close' to accurate. This list is from everyone who has posted in this thread so far (I think, forgive me if I've missed someone please!)

Thanks Dra. Rosie's date is probably correct but I was Grannie before that and I believe the correct date would be November.

Yeah,that's probably right on mine too. I lurked for a good six months or so before I started posting.

Thanks Dra! Sounds reasonable, if BB2 started in July, it probably did take until Aug 3 for me to find my way here. I'm sure I lurked a few days before I actually got brave enough to post for the first time though.

Rosie, I would think that since everyone knows you who you were before, the mods would be able to adjust your start date.

You're amazing Dra!! Thank you for taking your time to do this.
