Member # 196 that's quite in the beginning really. And still around. Great. We have seen some changes to this site, haven't we? I have been out-of-business for some years in-between, burnout and all that, but cant let go of programming.

Members with numbers below a few hundred like me and Ravi B are those who were on the list Chris used to send out the initial invites to the site since were members at the previous site that shall remain nameless. My participation here has varied over the years but I am on the road a lot less these days so I am more active. I spent a number of years on the road and I wouldn't want to do that again with the state of travel these days.

Damn it, just saw that I am longer member at Codeproject than some of my work colleagues are alive. :-D Does that make me feel old? Nope. Am having fun with that. How many are members here since 20+ years and still active?

22 years, 9 months But then again, I don't really exist, so it's moot.

Sup sup old timer. Some of the OGs like Nish and Shog are gone, but there are a few of us still lurking.

Yeah they come and they go but a few of us have hung on. Some have left us permanently; Jimmy Ropes for one. R.I.P.

19 years 7 months for me. A colleague put me onto the site when I asked if he knew of a library to ease coding on a C++ DB project (I think it was a JSOP article that met my criteria almost as if it had been written just for my case). I mainly lurked on the site reading the lounge posts and daily newsletter and looking into various articles to answer questions and such. I didn't become active on the site itself until I retired 5 years ago. I came for the technical know-how, but stayed because of the openness and civility.

Openness, civility and general friendliness is a great plus here!

I made my first DOS programming with the Spectrum 128k in the 80es as a kid and helped my oldest brother (in college) to install and get started with win 3.11 at the age of 11. Got my own Pentium II with 150 MHz some time later but I really started (seriously) programming around the 2000s with C, then Borland C++, PALs, PICs, Telemechanique Grafcets (which I liked a lot), VC++ 6... then I changed to industry PLCs (I really liked the Grafcets :)) missing the introduction of c# and .Net Framework and many other things afterwards. When I left PLCs as main field I got like :omg: :wtf: :omg: :wtf: what's all that? And I came back to my CP account to get up to date again... never left after that.

Welcome to the 80's club then

Is there a 70's club? I started in 1974 at University but went professions in 1986, so I suppose I'm an 80's club member! :)

23 years 2+ months CP used to be part of another site--completely forget which--and then went independent. On July 6, 2000, Chris had to change something (new database?) and join dates were all reset. We would have gotten our pitchforks and torches but were too lazy.

I think I've been on here about 13 years - not sure where to check. Really only been writing software for a living since the late 80's but started coding at school on a time share computer in about '74. Bit of dabbling with 8080 and Z80 micros during the late 70's/early 80's

As a younger member 9 yr 8 mo This is one of the most enjoyable group of professional people on the internet Diversity of interests,backgrounds and real programmers Some of you have pushed me to learn new ways when I started learning C# that was very meaningful as a novice wannabe create of my own programs I am 78 and have lost most of my childhood and high school friends from Ohio and now live kind of remote in the mountains of Arizona few friends So the Lounge is a little bit of social life with people from all over the world Just enjoyable Thanks to All that reside here
