thats hwy i want to try and find out who was here first.

since the original way seems not to be working, lets change the rules. could anyone that joined before the ‘cut off’ date please try and remeber when they joined.

i think i joined in december 1999.

I really don’ t remember, but I to have been here a long time, I think somewhere in the summer of 1999 but it might have been earlier then thar.
