How long have you been here?

December 14, 2003 appears to be first post

so uh, 11.5 years or so, jeez

My first post -- Nov 27, 2002 -- was apparently about the B-52s.

june 2001, had lurked previously having clicked a link to the "simon reynolds is a gobshite" thread from rockcritics.com

11 years

how many here remember the greenspun days or 'turn back you poxy fule' (which I never understood the nostalgia for as it was bloody annoying)

it'll be 10 years this December, wow

I was here for the poxy fule era, and maybe greenspun? was that when there was a w3hrd.ilx or whatever, two separate URLs?

Just over 11 years, apparently, between this and my prior login. Christ.

greenspun.com felt like an artifact from an ancient internet even then. i still use old.css tho

I've always bee here

Jan 19, 2004 under another name

october 2001, maybe slightly before, def greenspun at the start. first post i find was jan. 2002.

i've had three usernames i think
this year is my 10th anniversary of posting but i lurked for a few months before that

For me it'll be 8 years come September.

If I include lurking than just over 8 years as of now.

Too long/not long enough

First post was 8/30/2000. But then I stopped and didn't really start again until the later half of 2001.

oct 19, 2002

too long! i don't really have too much fun here anymore, but i guess i can't stay away. sorry! i would stay away if i could. i'll try harder, i promise.

I enjoy yr rambling fwiw

never enough scott

i still use old.css tho

The first thing I remember seeing on ILX was Momus's penis, so whenever that was.

12 years, that's almost a third of my life! Though I still sometimes feel like a newbie, the whole Greenspun era is a myth to me. I remember poxy fule though, and the days of anonymous posting. Remember what a furor there was when some folks dared to suggest posting on ILX should be allowed for registered users only? Such simpler times!

Ive been reading/posting since 2003-2004 but I cant prove it =\

nevermind lol

book recommendations

i think my first ever post was 2005 but I may have had other logins I've forgotten. Started posting more in 2007.
This is not me btw: Have you done anything that should have gotten you murdered?

i switched over to old.css earlier today and i can't believe the suffocating waves of nostalgia coming off this monitor. also, the eyestrain.

loooooool

I think I posted some terrible shit under my actual name starting in 05 that I wish I could erase or Googleproof. I started with this dn in 07.

I have posted nearly 12000 posts of hot fire since then tho 🌋🔥🔥🔥

3500 posts but I still feel like a newbie

acoleuthic awwww

A little over 11 years. Though I'm quiet these days I used to talk a lot a lot. Then I got *jobs* and other stuff, incl a baby. It's just by weird luck that I didn't get into ilx earlier! But one day on a bus in London in the early spring, ken c. told me about this, the other Internet tendency. I think everyone was just sheltering me from it before. Haha no.

3500 posts but I still feel like a newbie

This is my 3214th since January of 2005 and I feel the same.

Another member of the 3000 club here: 3165 since 2003.

14 years, not far off half my life!

14 years, more like a third of mine

First post May 24, 2001. 15,512 messages later here I am.

3,838 messages since 2009.

March 13, 2001. So over 14 years. I'm having trouble comprehending that.

apparently I've posted 17,831 messages, but I think that must be since around 2007 or something as I changed my account details some time ago.

April 19, 2007. 8 years.

About 1/5 of my life.

Early 2004. I've apparently made 9,262 posts, which seems a bit unlikely.

here since late 2010, made 650 odd posts

First post 3rd December, 2000
