At least, that was it for me. I know I haven' t been here as long as some.

I agree. Dennilfloss too heh.

Anyone remember who this was?

Dennilfloss, not sure of the spelling. He still makes posts under the same handle, at hazels site, and shadow works as well.

I could never forgive the bastard. Some people are more forgiving than me, i guess.

He walked up to me when I went to UCD, recognized me from my pics in the Coffee House and just came up behind me and said, "excuse me, are you from Anandtech?"

I think people either stopped believing I'm a girl or stopped bothering to treat me like one of the AT females. :) Dunno, for some reason I've lately escaped all abuse or special notice whatsoever. Kinda nice to be fading into the fabric of the forums.
