In two weeks, on 9/7/2009, Martin Liss will celebrate his 10 year anniversary of being a member of this site.
While there are member Ids that precede his join date, I believe he is the oldest (in terms of membership, not age) active member.
I realize this event is two weeks away, but I wanted to be the first to issue a congratulations message!!! http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-dance011.gif
10 years! That's like a decade or something. Congrats. :)
Your 10 years will be next year Psyrus!
I know but I am old and not as active. :cry:
You old bunch of farts. I just joined this site last week ;)
10 years. Thats amazing. It'll be 2015 before I can celebrate anything of the sort :(
Pre-congrats Martin! :thumb:
Then you are the biggest spammer around! :lol:Quote:

Congrats Marty. Now that's dedication!
(But Joacim has you beat. :D)
Decadeation?
Wow, I have a couple years yet to go.
It would be 2017 for me. I was a VBForums member back in 2005. I stopped posting for a while and my identity evaporated into thin air. I don't know exactly how long it is before nonuse causes your identity to disappear.
Mine will be in 2011! :DQuote:

I think that was around May that year.
Congrats Marty
My 10th year date is: Sep 18th, 2015
If you look on your own profile page, it shows the date you joined.
Where's the cake?
the cake is a lie!!!
Congratulations, Marty.
Keep up the good work. I have learned an awfully lot from you (and Hack, and the Fox, and Si, and RobDog, and LogoPhobic, and Ellis Dee, and Rhino, etc.) This is a great ship to ride on with a fabulous captain and crew.
I enjoy swabbing the deck and cleaning off a few barnacles from the hull now and then. ;)
Again thanks everyone, and especially you Hack for making me feel old:)
Congrats Marty
Misery loves company :DQuote:

Helping younger people, makes you feel younger (it works for me at least, and I'm going to need that soon enough:ehh:)Quote:

My join date was earlier than it appears, because my account needed to be re-created after the big crash. I think my original account was a year or so earlier.
I love the way you described it! :lol:Quote:

Hmmm... I actually posted my first answers back in '97, then they changed forum to vBulletin on January 1st, 1999 and you had to create a new account (which I did on January 2nd).
Joacim there can't be too many members that have an earlier join date than you. For all those posts I don't remember seeing you before. Perhaps you're not posting as much as you used to.
I told a woman the other day "I'm so old that I forgot how old I am." She says, "I'll tell you how old you are. Take off your clothes and lie down." I do it and she says, "You're sixty seven." I asked her, "How can you tell?" The woman says, "You told me yesterday."
With apologies to Henny Youngman
We must learn to hide it better, any old riff raff is getting in now :eek:Quote:
