Same here. I read for a long time before I registered and started posting.

Hello.

 

[Kyle]

3000 only posts in 10 years !

yeah..

 

[Vincent]

I've been here a while but don't post very much

 

[PokerGuy]

Not I.

Maybe Derek?

 

[miketheidiot]

its me, i'm the oldest

 

[SunSamurai]

So far looks like Vincent is the earliest. (580)

 

[Praetor]

Speaking of being here forever, I wonder if they're waiting for the 10 year anniversary to switch the software over. It would be appropriate.

Might be Harvey?

I wasn't very thorough, but I tried looking for the lowest user ID I could find.

Jason Clark (writer of AT articles?) was 572, but last time he posted was 2007.
Harvey is user 574 with a join time of 10/9/1999 2:12:18 AM

I think it's me. Russ and I were Mod/Admins on the old UBB board, before we moved to FuseTalk, and he and I were the first two registered to beta test it, right after Jason Clark, who was the System Admin at the time and one of the authors of FuseTalk.

I registered just before Russ. As you noted, my member ID number is 574, and his is 575. I searched, and there is no account with ID #573.

The next remaining earliest number I could find who is still posting is Budman. His profile ID number is 578.

If you want to search for others, the syntax to view profiles is:

ht[/i]tp://forums.anandtech.com/'tombstone.aspx?profileid=[profile ID number]

If you want to find your own profile ID number, or anyone else's, mouse over their profile icon, and you'll see the syntax:

javascript:winopen('tombstone.aspx?profileid=[profile ID number]','tombstone','560','490');

Yep as far as Fusetalk goes Harvey has got to be the one. In UBB who knows anymore. I seem to remember that the first 5 hundred something IDs were reserved so open registrations started above that block of IDs. Anyone know how Russ is doing by the way? Really missed him when he left.

 

[oogabooga]

not me I think 100k people beat me as ATOT was already 100k+ members when I signed up.

Yep - profile id 112477

 

[randalee]

I'm sort-of old, but not a frequent poster.

Pfffft, 752 in nine years for me.

 

[Engineer]

I may not be the oldest (by joining date, not age! ), but my profile number is tops!

1337 here!

Hey, can I keep this profile number on the new forums? Purdy pleeeeaaasssseee!??

I would think Harvey also.

You beat me by a short while on Fusetalk. You're number 656.

Edit: I see Harvey at 574.

I was around before Fusetalk but don't remember how long or on what forum exactly. I remember the Hitachi (I think it was Hitachi - at Buy.com) monitor stuff with Harvey!

You're averaging just over a post a year!
