So this is forum-related rather than strictly watch-related... I saw a reference in a thread on Sales Corner to the famous Thanks Crusader thread, took a look at it and it was a real trip down memory lane. It reminded me of various members who have been active on the forum for a long time, including Peter (aka griswold), Bob (aka rfrazier) and me. Crusader himself is no longer active, nor is Ming Thein (who is now not just a person but also a whole watch brand, of course!).
It started a train of thought around who is the member who joined the forum earliest and is still an active contributor?
If we exclude the boss, who actually joined on the 18th of October 2002, the longest serving member I can identify appears to be John (aka abraxas), who joined on the 21st of October 2002, 24 hours before Tinker.
Did anyone join earlier than that?
