Questions from a n00b...
 

How old is this forum?

Is there a sort of time period allotting how many threads are visible to members? It doesn't seem like all threads are visible. The numbers don't appear to add up.

Ok I answered this bit on my own lol. It's all in the settings.

But I'd still like to know how old the forum is plzty!

Well, all that you see goes back to the last crash in 2003. We have roughly 2.5M threads since then. If you take it back to the very beginning, I think it was '98 or '99, but it was centered around a video game clan and the stuff they were interested in.

You might want to check out the Hall of Fame for some very interesting stuff.

That's pretty impressive. Very happy I found this place (so far, lol.)

Thanks for the 411!

Any time. Let me know if you need anything else.

And again, welcome!

Thanks!

i'd also like to add that the more you contribute, the more access you get to this site.

this place works on a tiered system, so the more valuable a member you become, the more 'goodies' that you get access to.

dont fret...just post, and it will come

ahhhhh... hidden sections.

That makes more sense. Because I've noticed there will be 20 members online but no one's posting. They must be in the top secwet aweas!

We do have our fair share of lurkers as well.

Damn the lurkers!

Actually that's sort of sad. I didn't lurk at all like I should have, being new and all.

Liiiike I mentiooooned... breakup - don't want to think - disassociating - etc. lol
I'm sure I'll back down on the post whoring eventually.

Or they're just in spots you're not looking. Like the porn. Or the members playground that you'll eventually get access to Woods.

Yay for things to look forward to lol.

Thx for the info :).
