    Who has been here the longest?

    I was just wandering, who has been here the longest? It seems there was a whole diffrent group of people when i first got here. Alot of drama happened and new people has filtered in. I am curious to see who is still here from the begining and if there is still people here from 2002 when i showed up.
    Never argue with an idiot. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

    Calling an illegal alien an undocumented immigrant is the same as calling a drug dealer an unlicensed pharmacist.

    There are still a number of us "old timers" lol around just most don't post as much as they are used to. I sure haven't been here the longest but I have put in my time.

    I think I was between #20 and #30 that signed up on the original board. I'm not sure if the guest book from back then is still up and running. I showed up along time ago, way before this 02 date from when the board changed to this style.
    I remember when we hit the 100 member point LOL, back at TF02 we had 13 people show and we were proud of that accomplishment!!
    The board keeps growing, lets keep it going!!

    MIK6, did the dates reset when we changed to this style? It seemed like i bought my first wheeler in 2000, that is when i discovered this site. I just thought i was confused.

    I looked on the Archives, in Dec 2002 i had a couple of post but they were after i had gotten my 200e running. So i am unsure if Dec 2002 is accurate

    I came in around 1998 - or 99 and the site was pretty busy then. Nothing like todays post counts - but unfortunately - the posts had much more relevance back then. Less silly banter and such. For the record - I don't really consider myself to be an "old timer" on the site - most of the guys I talk to on here were here and established when I popped my ugly head in

    Then back in 03 or so I almost got thrown out on my head for a stupid post I put up about a topic that I will not mention again on any ATV site. That is what has made me a stronger member than I was once before - learning a valuable lesson - and walking away with something I can pass on to other ATVers.

    ya barry_mann. that is the date billy and howdy set up this style. If i remember rite they kept all the registered names on hold till we resigned up, it let us keep our names. I'm sure they will chime in w/ an accurate account of how it happened. billy might have a screen shot from back then too. maybe a link to the guest book.

    I've been here (at the old board) since 1998 when I bought the 250SX.

    I knew very little about trikes at that time but I knew I liked them allot.....

    I can't remember my screen name back them but I don't think it was Dirtcrasher.

    I remember buying a 200X shock from Howdy back then and I hadn't heard of EBAY at the time so I was psyched....

    Well sure, back then when you typed in "atc" in the eBay seach you would get 6 pages of info, now there are (as of today) 60!

    I started with ebay and 3ww around late '98 I think. I don't rember how long it took me to sign up on the board as a full member. I guess it was a good thing the tranny broke on my dad's YTM, that got me started.

    Not sure exactly how long I'd been hangin around before I actually joined, but it was a long time ago. Back when the original board was on angelfire ( or maybe one before that ) Used to drop in to the chat room from time to time. Not sure why I waited so long to join.
