I remember reading the front page for several months when Anand posted that he was going for his driving test for his driver's license. I about fell out of my seat thinking the guy was like at least in his late twenties. Now, he's bald and gone.

I know crazy. I was just thinking an hour or so ago how this place use to sometimes have less than one line of users on. Now it says there are like 7000 and a giant list of names.

The internet was a lot smaller place back then. Far far fewer and different people in those days.

Yup, its changed. Its never going back.

Everyone asking where the time has gone but no one regretting that they have wasted thousands of hours here. Guess that is a good sign.

Sometimes I think of things like that.

I can guarantee you i've been here longer than 95% of the people here.

You should have a mod merge all your past names and posts. Then you'll get your original join date and post counts all added up. That's what they did to mine.

It just hit me, I can't believe I've been an Anandtech member since Oct 1999. 15 years that feels like it flew by. There have been some good times, some sad times but never boring times. Thanks for being part of my life people &#128512;

15 years and you have broken through the glass ceiling while I am still in the mailroom. LOL!!!

Big congrats, nice sentiment.

But then It might tally up the infraction points and lead to a permaban.

bah. I had my old account merged and while I got the earlier joiner date, my post count stayed the same. Had over a 1000 posts that could have gone towards my lifer in progress tally. :(

Start neffing.

I wish my post count would lose a digit.
