Yeah, it's been going on for quite a while, we Ents talk so darn slowly.

Yes, now that we're done introducing ourselves...
Hey, are there any old school members from the very beginning who post with semi-regularity?

I think that the only 1999 members that post (more or less) regularly are HOBBIT, Spock and myself. I was the member #99 or #100 (we never knew for sure who was the #100 ) but I think that really I was the number 30 or 40 because there was a lot of members who had multiple users in the first days.

We've just finally gotten to the end of "Bmilder"'s name. Ugh, what an ordeal that was. Now for "Fat Middle"'s.
*sigh* In a few years we might get around to saying 'hello'. |

Wasn't the tolkien trail actually created in 2000 or something?
1997 is including "Benjamin's Tolkien and Star Wars Page" :P September 1999 is when Entmoot was created (i think september) by Bmilder after discussing the idea with Darth Tater on the "Jedi Council" forums. Tolkien Trail came later sometime in 2000 - summer 2000 maybe? IP did register December 1999. Around the time I did. For some reason, I have the saved opening page that reads "welcome our newest member, IronParrot"

Of course I was just kidding on IP. I remember he joined just a few days after me...
SGH, where have you seen that date: his profile says 1/1/2000
