Re: What year did you come to the .ORG
January '03 for me.
I agree with you, Dessa, '03 was a good time. It's a laugh going back to the 'Welcome. Newbies!' threads from that time and seeing some of what are now some of our best established members first posts.

Re: What year did you come to the .ORG
oh the good old days, i have a feeling the org has got very boring with all its new members, and all the good members of old have left.
funny thing though, people like crazed rabbit and Byzantine prince, i can't remember them.
i remember all the greats and many of the smalls.

Re: What year did you come to the .ORG
I started in 2000. Note the 2005...doh. Anyway, I was having lots of problems getting STW to run so I had to have Erado San's help. It worked...but then I lost my old account. So I started this one up.

Re: What year did you come to the .ORG
I joined in August 2000 as I recall, about a month or so after the release of STW. Very shortly after that, they had severe problems with the board and it was down for a few weeks (a month?). When it came back in its new incarnation, all the accounts were reinitialized with an October 2000 date. Well, at least that is how I remember it sonny.

I've been lurking on this forum for a long time, but I decided to post only in 2005.

Re: What year did you come to the .ORG
I seem to remember first encountering the org when I started playing STW online, at the end of 2000 - around Nov and Dec time. I only joined the forum however in April 2001, as the date under my name shall tell you.
It was all good and it is good to see you Shiro.
GARCIN: I "dreamt," you say. It was no dream. When I chose the hardest path, I made my choice deliberately. A man is what he wills himself to be.
INEZ: Prove it. Prove it was no dream. It's what one does, and nothing else, that shows the stuff one's made of.
GARCIN: I died too soon. I wasn't allowed time to - to do my deeds.
INEZ: One always dies too soon - or too late. And yet one's whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are - your life, and nothing else.

May, 2003. Probably the day after I loaded up the M:TW demo out of my PCGamer mag and went looking for the demo mod to play Agincourt.
Great stuff.

Didn't lurk, joined up straightaway. Get into the action, instead of watching it...
Re: What year did you come to the .ORG
It seems that somehow i m one of the oldest members around :P
I think I join a bit before or a bit after I bought MTW but I really cannot remember why...I think I wanted to ask something

Re: What year did you come to the .ORG
I lurked before I joined in 2004. I don't remember how early I was lurking, maybe around the time of the MTW demo.
Re: What year did you come to the .ORG
'02 '02!!!! Yeah...I liked the Org better back in the "good old days". With all of the new members, the personality seems to have diluted. The Frontroom especially. Gone are all the "high quality" spam threads. I still remember the Kikkoman thread and the ensuing sig crackdown *points at Rob* fondly.

Joined in 2002, after playing the MTW demo. Jumped straight in more or less. Still drop in here now or then but not as often as I used to. I also liked the Org better in the old days.
