I have not seen a post from you an a very long time. I guess you moderate forums that I don't read. Glad to see you are still in the saddle.

Congrats on an amazing forum! I've been here most of those years! I got a little slow on posting once school picked up, but I always come here for the latest on the know.

Thanks guys. And no, its not (wasnt) our site's birthday, but instead, our forums' birthday. We actually did run our site for almost two years before launching the current forum section. Which, looking to the past, was a very good decision to do, although, could've been done straight from the beginning :-) Our site will celebrate its 12th birthday in June :-)

Hey Mez!
Yeah it's been awhile but things should finally be slowing down enough soon for me to be a bit more active here.
Glad to see you are still around!

Likewise, there are not many old timers left. I am not all that active but I hit AD a few times a week.

Thanks for that bit of history. I never realized I joined shortly after the forums started. Until now I thought I came on 2 yrs after the start.
Thanks for changing the forum formats so rarely.

congrats :D
I am proud to say I have been here for most of the time that afterdawn has been up. I have been here for 7 years and always read the news here every week but im still just a junior member :(
The average woman would rather have beauty than brains, because the average man can see better than he can think.

I don't know how AD classifies people. I'm a 56 yer old Junior.
Even though I was one of the people (two hundred of us)who started the first website in the US (Stanford U), Junior is ok with me. ;)

It's all down to post count, sadly. AD Addict is 2500 posts, I believe.

ddp that must be a near record. I know a few that go through those stages quickly but not that quickly. Me, it has almost taken 10 yrs of regular activity to get there.
