        To me and CP. Member since Friday, January 5, 2001 (10 years). I had started working at my second company for about six months when I joined CP. I probably visited here a few times before I finally joined, which is why my member (number) is so large. :) [Comic Book Guy] Best ... Forum ... Ever! [/Comic Book Guy]

        Well done. Then CP must indeed be good as a lot of people have been around for a long time. :) Is CP too just around 10 yrs old by any chance as I haven't seen anyone being a member for more that 10 years?

                  I am counting in units of years but what you said if right kind of makes it clear that CP could not be more than 10 years and 5 months old.

                          Well, if he's been a member for 10 years, chances are that CP hasn't been going for less than 10 years.

                            CP is actually a bit older than 10 years and 5 months. Several thousand of us have the same start date, and we didn't all join the same day. Heck, back then I don't think the server could have survived 1000 of us connecting on the same day! :-D At some point 'way back then, Chris had to fiddle with the database and we all ended up with the same date of joining.

                                      To me and CP. Member since Friday, January 5, 2001 (10 years). I had started working at my second company for about six months when I joined CP. I probably visited here a few times before I finally joined, which is why my member (number) is so large. :) [Comic Book Guy] Best ... Forum ... Ever! [/Comic Book Guy]

                                          I think you got what I was asking but are just nitpicking. :) Read it as "...just around 10 years..."

                                          I've yet to find a nit I didn't pick.

                                          I'm not a stalker, I just know things. Oh by the way, you're out of milk.
