Hello!

yeah, you don’t know what you’ve got until you’ve lost it

When we first migrated to Teams at work a fair number of colleagues just couldn’t see the reply button, so would just respond to messages with new posts, and everything was in a random order as a result. Very strong this place in 2007 vibes for weeks until they worked it out.

What about @unicornporn / pickledoeuf
She was an early one, wasn’t she?

some of us tried really, really hard to make sure it was tho

feels just like families really; there are always cliques

Think I started coming on here a bit around 2008 but found the formatting of the threads and working out who was who without avatars mega stressful - just wanted a regular forum layout man.

Then a couple of years later I was clearly sufficiently bored to get over it and join in. Every so often when an old thread gets linked I’ll think “that was before my time” and then sure enough on of my shite posts will be there.

Makes it all the more impressive that you celebrated your 39th birthday last year.

I’ve been here 15 years or so, but I used to be called inside-outside.

I quit for a year or 2 when we moved to the new boards. I just couldn’t abide by the non-nested format. Ho boy did I love that nested format

Just looked it up, and the oldest email I can find is a report that I sent about a Mike Diver article in December 2007, so maybe it was then?

Was very much a lurker/occasional. Still am, tbf

Did not know this!
