Not one of the very first but close. I was there when it was still evolving from a university project belonging to Chrismo and Russ (I wonder how many times he has posted patiently and diligently over the years), before they introduced subscriptions - I remember the first time they asked and people weren't sure if they wanted to pay or not but some of us were quite proud to help keep the site going. I remember when it went from being a project to a full time job.
Have seen a lot of people come and go. If you want a stroll down memory lane, go to the site announcements forum, keep hitting the last page till you're back at page 269. You'll find Rhymester back there, who joined in April 2001 and last moved 15 minutes ago 🙂 He has 194,880 moves under his belt. If you're looking for one of the originals, check out his profile.

Originally posted by divegeester Kegge couldn't have been invented, then so for that reason I'm going to have to pull the "bullsh***" card.
Duh!!! ... Kegge wasn't invented. I AM Kegge.
You wouldn't know my previous persona because you weren't a member of the site yet. or did you re-invent yourself?
Besides, like I care whether YOU believe me or not. And hardly anybody is left from that era any way. I just posted what was one of my highlights on this site.

So, why don't you come clean with who you were then to someone who was around then?
