How long have you been here

Recommended Posts

I came over in the great Thehuddle.com purge when they started to charge for access and never went back.  25 years. I have been posting here for around half my total life and most of my adult life.  Who has been here the longest that still posts?

Today is my 25th anniversary here…  Eesh…

Thehuddle has a great message board until they went pay…  I wonder whose idea that was, DMD or WW…

A lot of tech has changed in the last 25 years and I keep thinking that one day I will go to log on and Mikes hamsters will be dead. Site error. 404.

Lurked on the Main Bored starting 1998 or 99, whenever I started playing FF.

Joined in August of 2001 but stayed on the Main Bored until...

... Fall of 2004, when a lot of election talk was spilling over there and Mike said for the 892714389th time, "take it to the Geek Bored!"

So I thought, hmm, maybe I should check that out.

I instantly got into a slap fight with TorridJoe about the election, had my Barney moment

and have been here ever since.  :cheers:

My first year of Fantasy Football my brother was running the league.  We had the draft on a Saturday afternoon but I could only stick around for the first three rounds.  I told my brother that I had to leave and put my picks on AUTODRAFT.  My brother was so p1ssed off that I left the draft that he took me off auto draft and picked a kicker for me every round.  When I got home I had 9 kickers on my team!!!!  🤬

 

I had to go to the waiver wire and get my team.  

 

The funny thing is that I WON the league that year.  

 

KARMA!

Joined in 2000 as Snookslayer to ask some ff question. Lost my password, so I made a new account.... if I'd known I'd be here this long I would've looked harder for my password, or at least thought up something better than my stupid dog's name.

I remember logging on Sep 11, 2001... there were lots of threads on the mange board:  "US under attack!", "Thousands dying", etc.... then an occasional "if they still play this week, should I start McNair?"  :huh:

Came over from The Huddle about 8 months after you did and for the same reason. I was a regular on this forum (and along with Torrid Joe, one of the few liberals) until about 2007 when the anti-Muslim rhetoric and homophobic slurs became excesive IMO, so I immigrated (legally) to FBGs where I stayed until, I guess. about 3-4 years ago when the PSF ended, prompting me to return here. 😁

23 years.  Was fun for a while then a few of us left when it became unbearable thanks to posters like Recliner Pilot and Edjr.  Left for good after the Latin Pimp hack.  Came back a few years ago after the Sanctuary imploded.

Left for good <> Came back a few years ago

Considering all your bannings you're clearly not wanted. Maybe try again?

22 years as of February 28. Came over in 2003 after/during the Curly Bored jihad. 

I did leave for a long time, still trying to figure out why I came back.

Maybe you should start a thread on that. Who knows, it might even last longer than the one yesterday.

20 years in the spring sometime.  

I remember signing up junior year of HS in the school library.  I wanted to make a couple arguments over on the mange.  Figured it was a one off sign up and post.

I was at the Huddle until it imploded. Went to FBG first, that site was in its first year, but theHuddle diaspora was unwelcome and treated horribly. I came over over to help JetDoc set up an Interboard League team here and stayed. FFToday was much closer to what theHuddle had been than FBG ever was.

I was gonna say, all you have to do is hover over someone's name to get the answer.

Unless they're a real old timer or have had multiple aliases, I guess.

I remember the curly board jihad. Funny times. I think that is how we got Peenie also.

Lurked for 1 year in 2000. My first fantasy season.

Signed up 2001 as Silverado. My second season playing, and just stuck to the main board that year. (Quit frankly. This place scared me).

Computer crashed. (Maybe pron). Got a new one, but like everyone else's stories. Lost my password. So signed up again as Kopy in 2002.

This place is like the family I never wanted. Nor would ever tell anyone about.

I tried to explain this place to someone once and they looked at me like I just walked off the face of the sun. Never again.
