Of course some people lurked for a long time before registering.

I lurked during the run up to the original WITP release but even so I can't match 20 years. I am used to being one of the old timers at work...here I am but a baby duck.

There are a surprising number (at least a dozen or so...) of people who registered in the first half of 2000 and are still active (ie have posted sometime this year). [X(]

Incredibly dedicated mob aren't we... [:'(]

Cheers,

Do the numbers at the bottom mean that there have been 343 red cards?

Unfortunately it has not been completely smooth sailing over the last two decades. A couple of strong opinions have attracted the attention of the moderators but thankfully very rarely. [:(]

The number of bans has probably been inflated bu a few spammers that somehow managed to sneak into here of all places!!! [X(]

The 'Genuine Fake Passports' thread was classic, we had fun with that one for weeks!! [:D] [:D] [:D]

I have not fired a rifle since I was in high school - we had a rifle team - pretty sure those are non-existent today, at least where I grew up - Massachusetts. I feel the itch from time to time to go shooting (paper). but the wife will hear nothing of it, even though I think 80% of my neighbors are armed. But she has had the good fortune not to have met our resident bear up close and personal. I'm just happy the 500-600 pound bear is afraid of my 20 pound mutt......


edited to add % to 80.
