I think mine was on how crappy FuseTalk is and how it is going to suck moving to it.

First one I could find.... 5/21/2001 *munching on words*

Now now... there are still alot of questions surrounding this whole issue... for example...

There are multiple reports of disenfranchised Black voters... being blocked from the polls... so the issue of who fairly one the election is still very much an issue... now as to who is the president... there is no question... but just as Mr. Clinton was prosecuted for his wrong doings... if it is proven true that Bush had a hand in disenfranchising voters... don't you think that should be made an issue as well?

Furthermore... I was in DC as well this weekend.. in fact I work right next to the whitehouse... much of the protests were disputing the legitimacy of the EC... which they have every right to dispute... as there are many solid points as to why the EC may be an illegitimate means of electing a president.

In either case... He sure as hell ain't gonna last 8 years... not if I can do something about it... <getting campaign signs ready> and we sure as hell are getting rid of that republican majority in the capital next year....

Well after 14 pages, each containing 500 threads, I found this thread. That is the first thread I ever started here. That was so long ago!!

Myjaja, why don't you use the search feature and compile a list of everyone's first posts?
I thought some people might enjoy seeing their first thread.
So stop being such a douche and STFU and leave my thread!

No, I wasn't being a douche... you're being a little over-sensitive. My point was that you could spend a little time being a nice guy and dig up the first posts for a few hundred frequenters of ATOT. (By selecting the more entertaining members, you'd even save us time) Then, you could complile them all into one post with comments. In other words, you could create something like "here are the pwnage threads of the year" but instead with a compilation of some of the better first posts by recognizable posters.

When I saw your thread title, I thought of another thread "what is your avatar?" and how one of the members here (Amanda) actually put in a little bit of effort to compile this Avatars by Amanda image.

There was no need for you to be rude with the "stfu."

Oh, ok. Thanks for clearing that up. I thought it was just sarcasm. I'll edit my post. :)

Wow! I almost forgot about that!

Developing that avatar list was easy. It only has one or two names per avatar. I did it when someone started a thread about what person you associate with which of the avatars. I think it would be quite a bit harder to do that with first or best posts in a thread. Good idea, though! :D

If I could find a cheap Chi costume that would fit me, then I'd totally dress up for Halloween. I have no sewing skills! :(

Oh my, memories.... Does anyone else remember the batch of Slot A Athlons that were de-clocked? I worked at a small computer company and was able to score one of them through our supplier. It was a 750Mhz Athlon that was de-clocked to 500Mhz, sent it to a guy on the internet who re-soldered the resistors and got it to clock stable at 900Mhz with an Alpha 2-fan Cooler (the thing weighed a ton!).
