Like HRH, I am cybernetically unabled and technologically maladjusted. I still don't know what the "Print-Screen SysRq" tab on my keyboard means and I am afraid to touch it in case my computer shuts down permanently and the police come busting through my door. I, too, await Tuesday with a grim sense of foreboding. And I joined early in the fall of 2000 just because.

I have no idea when I signed up. I know I was here during the BB1 season, don't remember the name I used, but I do recall using some stupid name because the name I really wanted (Hosewater--wonder what became of him/her?) was already taken. Then I accidently let my account expire during the off season (despite sneaking back checking for updates...guess you need to post as well) and signed up for a second time picking my current name borrowed from my online game playing persona, and nearly created more confusion ( Sorry Lance. )but in the process I became a year round poster thus preserving my identity here for better or worse, hehe. The rest is history. I'm not too worried about it, but it is surprising how fast so much time has flown by. This is by far the most compassionate and fun place I've ever seen on the net, and am proud to be accepted as a member.

I remember the name Hosewater too. (but didn't know the person who had it) No confusion with me Cross.

I remember the OLD days when you could only post a few posts and then had to start a new thread for LFPs or it would mess everything up. Ryn and Jana were doing most of the LFPs at that time. Neal has done a great job.

I am going to change the title of this thread to say "When did you join TVCH?" and move the initial "countdown" posts to a new countdown thread for TheOwl

It's also amazing at how long I've been around, too. I've been Yankee-in-CA since the beginning -- at the beginning of Big Brother 1. This thread is bringing back a lot of memories about old names, friends who have moved on, and friends who, like me, are still hanging around!

I joined in the summer of 2002. Fly started my members folder. I still remember my sparkling welcome from her! I was a lurker since BB1 though. It took me a while to join. This thread is bringing back lots of great memories.

well, i first joined as emt911...then, when my daughter wanted to play some of the reality games, i added tabbyking through my husband's email address. i forgot that i was originally emt911 until i saw the email addresses i signed up under. this is still not going to be easy, remembering when emt911 started. tabbyking would have been a year later, i think, when BB rolled around again. this is getting harder, not easier. now, when i signed up, if it had said, "REMBEMBER THIS DATE! PUT IT WITH YOUR IMPORTANT PAPERS BECAUSE YOU WILL NEED IT SOMEDAY", i might have jotted the info down somewhere

Well, heck, I joined during the first summer of BB, and didn't post till almost the end of BB. And I distinctly remember that my first post (which was intended to be a joke) got a rather strongly condemning response from our own dear Ocean Islands. I was so mortified I didn't post again until long after BB1 was over. PS - love ya, OI!

I got here in April of 2001 (I want to say the 23rd) after applying for BB2 and looking for other people who were waiting for any possible callbacks.

I joined sometime in 2001, I am thinking it was around August or so, I had been at Jokers and a yahoo site for BB, and must have seen a link to here at one of those. It is only recently that I figured out how to use the new message feature, and got a folder, so hopefully it will be similar!!!!

I first came here towards the end of Big Brother 2. I think I first started posting during Chiara's snap snap vowel thing on Big Brother 3--don't remember the exact date; I think I used msnapsnap for my name and then changed to marej.

I've been here so long,I'm not sure when I got here. I think it was at the beginning of BB2,but could have been earlier.

Can't remember the nick I used then, but I came a few weeks into BB1. When the show was over I left again and got a notice that my account would be canceled since I didn't post. Came back for BB2, under my current nick, I think but not until after last season did I really join in on the conversations.

I was here as tisha90005 in BB1, about 2 weeks into the show...and I also remember Hosewater! I loved that [Hosewater] name, but I never knew what it meant. I always thought it was like a Bob and Doug MacKensie thing--you hoser. Never mind. I only became tishala about a year ago, when my tisha90029 (yeah, it's not too original: i changed it when I moved to Hollywood!) identity lapsed.

So is the general agreement that BB3 started in summer of 2002? I could have sworn I was here before then, but maybe not. I know DH left for Afghanistan in July 2002, so that might explain why I suddenly had hours to spend online. I think I must have come here before DH left, or I'm sure I would never have chosen this member name. I would have chosen something like StressedMama.

I was here real early on (I am guessing within a week or two from the beginning. I was watching the live feeds and wanted to talk to people about the show because no one I knew watched Big Brother and my family thought I was a total dork (They still think that, but oh well I'm used to it by now).

So I guess I'll officially claim July 2001 for me. Since that's when BB2 started. Anyone notice how the new board is going to start around the same day as dear Fly's birthday? Is that intended, or coincidence? Seems like she's here supervising the board change and all.

i do remember that there was a poster named eddiesleg (sp?) at the time i came on. does that narrow my dates down any?! i thought it was the funniest name out there! what happens if we don't have our original post dates? do we end up like eddie's leg? cut off from the action?
