Evaluate the forums (why not?)

[Good Dreams]

I think it would be a good idea to evaluate the forums, as there are many people who are here for months and years. Either in Chit Chat or not. For those who have just arrived, I think they will find your opinion(s) usefull.
At least, I believe that by being here, something in us changes, no? With me it did anyway and I'm glad.
So, tell us (if you want)...

• How were you when you first arrived into these forums
• How are you now
• How much the forums contribute for your evolution as a programmer or/and as a person

I arrived at the forums from a search on Yahoo! I'm now addicted as you can see (left). These forums are great, at first I only used them to exploit the knowledge here, but then I started posting on the Chit Chat forum and realised there was much more here than a bunch of ppl who could help me out. These forums are a fantastic source for programming, without them I wouldn't know half the stuff I know now, they are also much easier for finding how to do API stuff thatn other sites.

When I arrived here after being a regular att programmers heaven (and ive seen a few people around here that are were regualars there too), I was mainly in the VB section helping people out...but slowly i have moved into the chit chat...where I live (check my location)

[Reminisce]When my grandad gave me Werther's Original for the first time I remember thinking I must be some very special...Sorry, wrong subject

• I knew nothing, i didn't even have VB . This place had only been going a couple of months, I can't remember how I found it, but the likes of Aaron Young, Serge, Yonatan were tru kings at the time.
• Now I lead my very own *exclusive* club (rumble with HB's club, tonight 9pm. Bring paint)
• What I have learned cannot be comprehended by humans (like the size of the universe)
