RIP join date

I like this new system/forum. I miss my old join date though. Not sure why it’s showing August of 2014. It was originally 1999. reminiscent tear

Summer 2014 is when the forums were moved over. Most people with those dates were members of the old forums system.

Ahhh, memories. Back when life was simpler and Photoshop made me want to punch a hole in my screen. Oh wait. It still does that.

But it’s great to see how long some people have been around Sitepoint. I have only been a regular since 2007 and it’s kind of cool to meet an ‘oldster’ like @sparkie. Too bad we don’t have some type of “Remember when…” thread. How many charter members are still active?

28th July 1999, apparently.

We weren’t able to import the join dates along with other data from vBulletin - and it’s probably the thing which has been complained about the most since the move.

It’s okay, you can say fossil. I don’t mind :slight_smile:

IS there anyone still here from back then?

And I didn’t join until 2011, so a real newcomer.

@DaveMaxwell is the only one I know for sure. He joined in November 1999.

Not sure when I joined. I’m sure I still have a reply to a post of mine in 2008 somewhere…

25th July 2002, according to my crystal ball…

I think I joined in 2004… or was it 2006? I don’t remember but I’ve been a member for at least a decade.

Before that actually. Mine was one of the ones that got nuked when SP moved from whatever it was prior to vB (ubi/ultra/something)

Photoshop battles? Rap Battles?

I just checked my join date - it’s 30 August 2014. Not bad going to have risen from newbie to a forum moderator in such a short space of time. All that stuff I must have missed though.

I think I’ve been here since 2007. Can’t remember. I guess I could take @technobear’s crystal ball and look it up lol
