I just had an interesting question I thought I’d ask you. What was your BBB 1st post? How have you grown since then? Did you use more “chat room” language then, and more….English language now? sorry to pick on some of you, but I just looked at some of the Veterans and see how they started, I tried to pick the funniest:
NOTE: It’s hard to tell what the first post was on some, so I tried to find the closest one
mine: https://bigblueball.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=12021
spike: https://bigblueball.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=11395
Oreo: https://bigblueball.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=2859
ys8er2323: https://bigblueball.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=6559
Crazy Penguin: https://bigblueball.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=10392I just picked some random names there, I’ll take the link off if you don’t like it there.
What I did was went to https://bigblueball.com/forums/members.asp
then I searched for the name, clicked on it, clicked “find all non-archived posts by member”. Then I find whatever post was updated longest ago, this doesnt always find the oldest one, though, but it’s pretty close.November 3, 2004 at 3:50 am #103754TigerbladeParticipantas far as I can tell, this might be my first one…. I dont remember though…
i’d imagine the mods or Jeff have access to that kind of information though

Wow, look how bad my grammer and spelling in my first post was :D:
Quote:quote:I dont suggest it, but you can make another sn and go on to that. [fragmented sentence = With a aim cloner or something.] I find its easy to jsut make urself a new sn and send your buddy list to it than asking your friends. sometimes they are asked not to tell u that uve been blocked.November 3, 2004 at 3:56 am #103744Jeff HesterKeymasterHere is the oldest post still in the database:
AIM 4.3 for Windows, dated 14 March, 2001. The key is the TOPIC_ID. I checked the database and TOPIC_ID=4 is the earliest topic still around. I don’t remember what 1, 2 and 3 were about, but they’re not around anymore.
November 3, 2004 at 4:08 am #103755RabidKittenParticipantI actually believe my firsts were in the non-existant Intro forum, but after that, it’s really funny because my next oldest is from 9-9-2003 in a forum I haven’t even visited once since then, Bots and Agents. Heheh, around that time everyone was talking about MSN room bots ,(which is funny wince Sir Sauciness just posted something about them again recently) so I went and posted a huge long thread about the basics of a bot, what I found worked the best and yadda yadda yadda. Jeff responded, but after that, I went poof for a while so I never got back to him on that… *flashes Jeff a grin* Heh sorry ’bout leaving you hanging, fellah.
But yeah…whoo…a forum I don’t even go through anymore…how crazy. That’s…pretty drastic! *blank stare* d-d-dear gods…did…did I use an EMOTE!?!?
Quote:quote:you know…we’re dorks ๐I did. *blank stare* …I need to go take a shower.
November 3, 2004 at 4:19 am #103745detn8rParticipantI couldn’t find my first post, but I can help you out with some threads/posts that I made. Some of the moderators find these quite humorous… heh

Yup, that was the one. When I first joined this forum(and this was the first forum I ever joined), I only hung out in the MSN messenger forum, but then I discovered that there were more forums. I was like you, detn8r :D… hmm, I didn’t use capatalization too much.
November 3, 2004 at 5:40 am #103752ladie_vennomMemberMy first helpful post was https://bigblueball.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=3358

But wow…look at how we’ve all grown and become so proper…This, too, was/is my first forum. You can obviously tell. And, now, after 465 posts, I’m starting to feel right at home here with you guys. ๐
(I knew a topic like this would eventually start…)
