Who's been using the forum for ten years or more?

[Robert Poste's Child]

Realised it's just over ten years since I first joined the forum, originally under a different name. Many of the most frequent posters back then have moved away or moved on, and it made me wonder who's still here.

Louisa, Dulwich Fox, ruffers, Sue, Loz. Who else?

Me, next month it'll be my 11th EDF birthday !!

[Robert Poste's Child]

Excellent!

Just spotted a recent post from wee quinnie.

I'm fighting off a summer cold at the moment and very bored (is it obvious?).

[BrandNewGuy]

I'll be 10 in October. Horrified to see that I've been responsible for 2,505 posts. What a lot of verbiage!

Not all of those users have been registered on here for 10 years.

Almost 12 years for me!

Sorry Dulwich Fox - I always think of you as one of the long-serving forumites but looks like I was jumping the gun there.

I joined 11/07/2010.

I mistakenly thought that EDF was a bit like Twitter. and just typed 'Just Testing' to see if it was working.

The thread was bombarded with abuse. and cries of Troll. ???

After nearly 8 years, Nothing has changed. :)

Baptism by fire! But you survived and you've probably outlived most of the people involved. Good for you.

4 December 2006 !!!! Blimey !!!!

I only came across the forum by chance when I googled a local issue to find out the background.

It's been (mostly) very useful for many things - thanks admin and mods!

November 2007 for me and boy things have changed!

[redjam]

Snap, kristymac1 - we joined at virtually the same time! I'd been lurking on it a while before we made the decision to move to ED though. I'm such a fan of the forum - it's helped me out so many times (not to mention making sure I'm always up on local gossip).

And Red Devil.

[Burbage]

My campaign to enlighten the neighbours began just over 10 years and two months ago, since when it seems I've squandered 504 pearls of wisdom.

The only thing that's noticeably changed is that I now feel paranoid in the Co-op.

[Earl Aelfheah]

Apparently I joined on 26/09/2007. Over 5,000 posts. I'm wasting my life.

[Robert Poste's Child]

Yes, but only half as much as Red Devil and (pro rata) Dulwich Fox.

[BrandNewGuy]

Oh good. My 2,500+ posts don't seem quite so logorrheic now.

You can catch them up if you average 50 posts a day between now and October.
