tomturd Posted April 28, 2006 Report Share Posted April 28, 2006 From what I can make out.. the first incarnation of trials-forum (mtbforum.virtualave.net) was around in 2001. Trialsforum.co.uk didnt come about until 2002.I've been here from the start, however somewhere along the way Danny nicked my 'Member Number: 1' from me. b*****d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT! Posted April 28, 2006 Report Share Posted April 28, 2006 Sept 04.Was it true pre 'me joing the forum' that one of the admin went on their hols, and made it so that any member who joined got validated stright away? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plainlazy84 Posted April 28, 2006 Report Share Posted April 28, 2006 I think it was around the time i was running Bashguard.com as I became an affiliate website to the forum. That was 2001 if im correct but could have been earlier. I witnessed at least a couple of major server crashes when everything got reset. Before that my main haunts were the Trialskings forum and even earlier than that I was on Mod and Stock Trials' yahoo group back in 1998.

tomturd Posted April 28, 2006 Report Share Posted April 28, 2006 Sept 04.Was it true pre 'me joing the forum' that one of the admin went on their hols, and made it so that any member who joined got validated stright away?Nah. Dont think both of us (me and danny) have ever been away at the same time. So one of us is always here to hold the fort. Saying that though, the validation system hasnt been around that long. I think it was around the time i was running Bashguard.com as I became an affiliate website to the forum. That was 2001 if im correct but could have been earlier.Sounds about right Bashguard.com really helped getting TF where it is, so cheers for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted April 28, 2006 Report Share Posted April 28, 2006 Talking of forums do you mods also have this syndrome of becoming totally uninterested in the forum after a few months of moderating? I still haven't come over it, that's partly the reason I joined this forum. Now I see how a forum should work and there's no way I'm getting back to the one I was happily sitting on before.Things change Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RicH_87 Posted April 28, 2006 Report Share Posted April 28, 2006 just to point out the obviosu, but it says when everyone joined under their names (<-----)but i guess it'll be interesting to see how many people joined from year to year.I joined july '03 apparently but i'm sure i didn't get a bike until august/september.I had a period when i never came on here but now i visist everyday pretty much.Like every forum it has its egos and it's retards, but it's pretty decent overall.aww *tf hugs* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anzo Posted April 28, 2006 Report Share Posted April 28, 2006 I occasionally came into the forum in 2002ish, signed up with a different username. That was before all the validation stuff I think.Anyway, I joined in the cold winter of 05 I hate signing up for forums, just makes you wonder where all the time goes.
