For not the first time, I've been thinking how long some of us have been here. What date did you join, and what was your original screen name, if it's changed? Me?- Nov 12, 2002. My screen name back then was sweetsangria.  |

Jun 29, 2003 - which means as of yesterday i've been a registered member for over 3 years. truth be told it wasn't till almost a year later that i really started posting, at first i was put off by just how horribly nice everyone seemed to be to one another, being i'm a tough love adept myself. #19#

I entered this wonderful online world on March 4th, 2003 at 5:55pm. My screen name back then was "matze" (didn't really change that much, as you can see), and the change that did happen was due to lovely jay who invented this nickname for me.

If I had had to guess, I would've said spring 2004, but the real answer is 12/2/03 at 9:33... so I guess I was a lurker or no show for one year after registering too... :/
EDIT: oh yeah... And I was Lemon Pie from the very start... I login as lemonpie, but I modified the nick already on the first login...

LOL, Aims!!!
11th of February, 2003. I remember trying to find a Tori forum from the Dent, but didn't have much luck, so I think I Googled and then I came across this lovely place.
I think my first username was in fact Helen, but I do remember changing it for a short while to 'Wednesday's Girl' when a certain eagle had to land. 'Herry' is actually a spelling mistake by one of my dear Japanese friends, and I just couldn't let it go.
In the three years, I've had the pleasure of meeting both Trevor and Aims twice and talking on the phone a couple of times to Mayrs and Jay.
I need to take a world trip and meet everyone. Which, by the way, I am constantly in awe of - so many people here from just about every corner of the globe.

I'm another who has the same username since Day one!
I remember some members being puzzled going "Does that mean koala poop? I hope not!"--but only after about half a year I had already been here, hehehe. That was great!
I can't tell you the exact date I registered because I don't remember and the info in my profile is wrong. I remember that I registered in June or July of 2003 because it was my first visit to the US and I had one day with whole lotta surfing in sight, and I decided to check up on what people thought about Tori's lyrics. Et voila!

Yeah, that rocked ;D I think I've met all the regular Aussie members. You a couple of times, Trevor, Jrie and Ben. And Jodi, seeing as she posts here now too. I guess Mary has met the most in total? (I have no idea, it just seems that she would've!) Someone needs to hurry up and win lotto so we can all have a big TF party. |

I've been here since October 2002, I think. My username has always been orfeo, even though half of you use my real name these days. I've met Helen twice and Aims twice. And I will meet Mary in December...

No you've only met me the one time. Although we did hang out for two days? So it probably counts. When you go to Mary's you can add two more people to the list, since Sean is a member too, even though he never posts anymore because he clearly sucks  (not one appearance on the Tool thread... it's not on) |

I thought 'once' and typed 'twice'. I shall be sure to tell Sean he sucks in person.  |

i joined november 21, 2002 (my goodness, almost 4 years ago???) and have never changed my name... thought of it, but could never quite come up with something...
can't remember the exact thing that made me join. i was at work, bored, and looking for something to do i think.
the only other TF member i've met in person is Kelly (she was mercurydove ages ago and then etienne) but i've talked to jenni quite a bit on email and im and in letters.

I forgot to mention Ben and Jrie!!! *hangs head in the Toriforum Corridor of Shame* That's terrible. Trevor, I'm jealous!!! EDIT: I wasn't signed in when I posted in the thread at first, and the string of numbers and letters in the security check window had the the letters BEN in them! Spooky spookage! |

Don't worry, Paulo--I haven't met anyone either, although there have been very close calls! Hey, Jess, we've also talked on the phone once, don't you dare to forget that Trevor--holeeeemoley! That's exciting news! Now world, could you please fast-forward to December. Can't wait to see you weirdos (in a positive sense!) get together ;D |

And I will meet Mary in December... Yay for 2002! Although, I can't really take credit for it, because I doubt I started posting regulary until 2003. So, I guess I'm really in the 2003 camp. I just lurked during 2002. I do think I got to know some of you in 2002, though, just from reading. |

I might consider it if you'd take me to some of the places in your photos. You could always come to Maine in the winter and see snow. And you forgot to post your former username. I must confess, it took me a minute to catch on to who the hell Pepe was. Thank goodness for location! lol. ♥ |

Someone needs to hurry up and win lotto so we can all have a big TF party. I agree! I would invite everyone here because it's so gorgeous and such a huge tourist attraction. Acadia National Park is insane-beautiful. But..... Now I don't know if I'll be here much longer, so..... Someone else might have to host.  |
