Unless they wiped out their database early on and started fresh a few months later.
Hence was speaking like a share market pundit with speculative words like "kind of" and "could" :)

Stop having visions of our members. It's just wrong.

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?

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

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.

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

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]
