Your first time

It was my freshman year of college - I was begged to do it, and I was scared shitless.

That answers both of your questions, Meat.

 

I'm pretty sure I started off with an obscure argument about college hockey.

It's been all downhill since then...

 

There's a way to check by clicking on your name and clicking on "show last posts" then going to the last page.

 

Depends on how long you've been here. My last post on there is from Sept. 2003. I was here before that. My first post archived on there is some post tempting BYH with lots of Mountain Dew because he was trying to quit.

God, what a great friend I am!

 

I wondered when people would realize that.

I wonder how many pages of posts someone like BYH has? Mine is 228 pages long.

 

Again, that only works if you weren't here before the big board meltdowns that cost all of us posts.

 

Mine doesn't go all the way back. Most don't.

 

It's supposed to be the other way around. You tempt me to do something by offering me Mountain Dew.

 

I'm pretty sure I was Anonymous 4:23, back on the Wild Wild West version of the board.

 

So it maintains how many posts you have in your post count through the big meltdowns? Or did everyone start back at zero after the big meltdowns?

 

We lost some posts. Like right now, if you look at Arnold Babar's profile (I did last night) he has like 1,900 posts, but only three pages on the 'last posts of this person' list.

 

Mine doesn't go all the way back to when I registered.
