Juju, can you help me remember? I think it was the fall of 2001 that I joined, but I'm not sure?

When did Rosie O'Donnell go off the air? Was that 2001, or 2002? I just found that e-mail to Gail and it was dated 7-02-01, but I was using the Amber name then.. hmmmmmm. Maybe I didn't change until summer of 02 then..I dunno. All I know is I haven't been to bed yet, so what does that tell ya...loooopy..hehe.

ETA: ok, it was 2002.. so I changed to MGA that summer.

Whenever GameI started is when I joined. Someone came over to Jokers and posted saying that there was a BB Game starting and posted a link.

I originally joined toward the end of BB1, but than re-registered at the beginning of BB2, because I had lost my password and my e-mail had changed so I couldn't get it back. Speaking of e-mail addresses, I better check what e-mail I have listed here to make sure it is correct before any changes.

MODERATOR? Yoo Hoo! What was the date Neil started this board? I read this thread but could have missed that. And what were the topics at hand if BB had not yet started. Survivor I?

I want to change my username to Tonks. Can I do that now?

I think I joined in July 2002.

I lurked since July of 2000. I remember because I was stuck on the sofa recouping from knee surgery. It was BB1 and TVCH was on a different server. The live feeds hooked me and really helped me spend my time in recovery.

When did I post as Schoolmarm? Well, Fruitbat, Juju, Wink, and Digigirl were doing a trivia game after BB1, and I was DYING to play, so I broke down and got a user name. Was this in Dec. 2000 or Jan 2001? Can't remember whether this was before or after Game 1, but I read all of The Game threads. :)

Wow, I can't remember what I did yesterday....but thanks for the dates...must have been July of 2000 if that was the first BB date. I may have had a different user name as well.

When I first joined, I was Cheesehead or Cheeseball or something like that. I think I only posted maybe 3 or 4 times, then I forgot about being here and ended up re-registering later.

I know for sure I was during BB1... I had dial-up at the time and very slow at that and I remember trying to watch the FREE feeds. I remember wanting to transcribe in the LFPs but it was such horrible quality that it wasn't worth even trying to watch. So I read. Obsessively. :)

Now, BB1 was July to September I'm guessing. Yep, I'm going with August 2000 as my "start date". That just amazes me. Time flys, eh?

Wow... has it really been since 2000??? I remember the old BBFC and the change to TVCH. I remember the CBS scandal! I remember it all. Although it wasn't until BB2 that I really started to get to KNOW everyone and find out what an incredible community this place is and not just a "message board".

Love you guys.. and can't wait to hear what the changes will be! I'm so excited!!!!!

Hopping up and down...

I'm a little nervous. I'm a lot nervous. There are a lot of board fomats that I don't much like. I'm so used to this one and so comfortable with this one and I know the codes for the clipart and for links and for pictures and how to get around and everything. I have my favorites all set up for my new message window. Oh God! What if the new message window is no more.

I.

It's the page that I have bookmarked. Will I still be able to get here with that bookmark, or do I neeed to bookmark the main page?

Is it going to be blue still? I like the blue. I thought that was a pretty classy upgrade with that fancy speckley marbley background we got that's so much easier on the eyes than the white was. A huge change? Scary.

Change makes me nervous. All day Tuesday. I'm tellin ya, I'm going to be a basketcase! I'll be bald! I'll pull all my hair out!

I first joined during the first season of BB when the feeds were free because I was home for summer vacation and helped with the live feed postings. I think I was MissKim or something similiar.

I stuck around through BB and the beginning of Game 1 and got bored (sorry) and while I checked in now and again, didn't return until BB2. By that time MissKim was inactive and I became Stormywhatever. It was Stormy that found chat and managed to stick around until after 9/11. Stormy got busy doing campaign work that fall and had no time for anything.

Reiki showed up sometime before BB3. Stormy was inactive and it wouldn't let me use that name to reapply, so I picked something different. Stormywhatever was too long to type all the time. Plus, I think there was another Stormy type around during BB2 and people got us confused. So Reiki was born. Ta-da!

That said, I'll take whatever date you give me. :) I'm just happy to be here and am excited about the new board.

THis thread reminds me of the saying (based on the book btw) "Who Moved My CHeese?" At school they are building a new building, we are in the oldest building in the district, it is wonderful, historical, leaky, moldy, too hot, filled with memories type building... so seeing all the forthcoming changes tends to draw sharp criticism (mainly because we are losing a LOT of space, as well as storage areas, too expensive to build dontcha know!!)

Thanks Niel et el, I'm looking forward to the new and improved board!!

I'm with half, that is exactly why I came online, and I googled to find a site that would tell me what was going on when the TV show wasnt on, Brit and Josh, how FUNNY!! I ended up here, kept leaving and coming, leaving and coming back... and I have gone thru 4 computer brains since then (they are all still sitting next to my computer 'desk'!!) so I probably do have my original email locked deep inside one of these computers... I remember emails from Gail, seems like I must've caused a problem trying to get back in in season 2, but I still sport the same name... I wasnt going to post, just read... lol!!

Reiki, don't you use the cookie thing so it remembers your username and password? It's sooo handy so you don't ever have to type it in. Whenever I do a wipe, I come back here right away and re-log in, then to my fish forum and to geocaching. The only three places where I always want to be logged in.

Reader, I think Brit and Josh were the reasons that I searched for BB sites too. This was my favorite. Obviously, eh?

Remember the drama about creating "Hot Topics" and the drama about changing the name of it to "News & Views"? LOL

Kaili, Stormywhatever was a frequent chatter. I had to type that name in every night to sign onto chat. And like I said there was another Stormy person here. I wanted something unique and original. So I took the first 3 letters from my last name REI and the first two letter from my first KI and became Reiki. Little did I know that far from being unique the name is same as a Japanese massage therapy technique and philosophy. But it's who I am on TVCH now.

Okay - apparently we were all interested in Britt & Josh because that's when I started coming here! This was my first, and remains my favourite, board to post on!

Hermi - I love the name Tonks, but you'll always be Hermione to me! :)

Ok I figured it out last night, I've been here since July 2001 and that's the date I'm sticking with.

You have, Mocha? Did you use a different name before? I always thought you were newer. Or did the years really go by that fast?

I've been here through 3 different apartments, 2 computers, 1 boyfriend, and many, many haircuts!

This is such a fun thread!

I remember doing a search for Big Brother during the first BB when we had the live feeds and loving this site. But after BB was over I promptly forgot about this site. Until BB2 started and then I had to do another search. I knew what I was looking for and zoomed right in on this site. I think I joined then but I lurked until late Sept of 2002 when I started posting and chatting. I just love the format of this place, so much easier to read than any other board I've visited, and I hope it doesn't change TOO much. I love TVCH and all the wonderful folks here! And mods, you make it so special!

For me it has been since July 2002. I didn't post right away but I have been here since then.

I joined right in the beginning too. I also remember when Neil was being threatened by CBS over the name..so would that make it July 2000 for me?? BTW I was Jasper then. I don't know how long I have been Jan? Does it matter? I would want the original date to be registered..it shouldn't matter under what name, should it?
