I was lurking since 99'. Hell, I guess I still lurk since I only have 500 and some posts since 01'! Actually it seems like I remember at least two major upgrades to the board. I remember losing some of my postcount with one of them.

I was around on the old board as well. I think I found the site when I was looking for some used parts. Pretty sure it was in the winter of 98-99. You didn't have to register. You just posted your name and a topic or a reply. Then it went to a version where you had to register and then to the way you see it today.

I was member #54 and Charter Member #55.

The original board was very out of hand. I remember a guy named Mikey that claimed to have a 42 Fountain with triple 900SC's. He was always bragging about kicking everyones azz at LOTO!

01-22-2001 was the final time I registered, my name used to have a space in it, but a board upgrade required the space drop.
I was here before that after following the Sun Coast Llama wars from the Donzi Registry.
