Not in terms of age, but in terms of who has been on here the longest.
unstableblue posted recently about being onhere for 24 years, about the same for me, but it just seems most on here now are new (ish).
Any more of the old guard out there? |  |

The way of finding out if someone has been on here a long time or not is to ask them their opinion of VeLoBiNd.
A very odd fellow.
I think everyone who was on here then would remember him. |  | | |

Pretty similar to me. i can't remember when first posting, but I know you just had to give yourself a username when posting anything - and you could be any name you liked to do so, before you had to register with an email address and a single chosen username (unless you were blueas of course). |
When I joined (in 2015) you were in charge of the Forum I seem to remember.
You sort of adopted me. |  | | |

Reckon I first rocked up 97 or 98. |  |

You kind of slipped through the induction process, I think you mean.
I've never had any kind of responsibility for anything on here. Sorry if I gave you that impression... ;) |  |

He was a Budgie who used to type in a very odd combination of lower and upper case. And properly went off on one about things.
You've kept your user name all that time, I've lost mine due to email changes and losing passwords a couple of times. | | | |

I’ve had this one since about 2000 I think. Picked it up at one of the board changes when I needed to register. | |

24 for me, I reckon. Possibly longer. I remember when the club were naive enough to run their own message board... |  |

I remember Unstableblue when he was based in Hong Kong and posted as Asian Blue Boy (at least I think that was him).
I was around at the same time he mentioned (about '96) and remember the message board run by Mark E Owen which preceded this one. |  | | |

I’ve been on here since 1997.
I very rarely post or blog now as I live in Canada and find it hard to follow Town as much as I’d like to. I’ve always found the mood of the board to follow the ups and downs of the team and know when to avoid posting.
I originally used to post under the name bensonandhedges. |  |

Ha, yes very odd. Didn’t he keep going on about how intimidating the ‘snake pit’ was. |  |

long enough I cant remember when I joined, that happens the older you get :)
but its at least since mid 90's Id have said,I signed upto my first home internet account circa '94, dialup only, so it would be then from really whenever the forum first kicked into life, as we always used to buy the fanzine, funnily enough even back then people would create threads and argue against you on the tiniest disagreement, so not much has changed other than we used to discuss football alot more | | | |

No idea of when I joined but it must been a good 11 years or even 12, even though I probably went under another name at first. |  | | |

Yeah man.
Think I was Grantor right back in the day; this is when BEBOF was posting.
Really miss dpilgrim; that bloke had exceptional horse-racing knowledge.
EDIT - I see SE1Blue is here; hello my friend. Are you still betting ITFC 4-1 Opposition on every Towun game? Came in against Burton last season; I thought of you.... [Post edited 7 Sep 2020 19:20]

No idea. I think I was posting by about 2000/01. May have been a bit earlier, maybe a bit later. Can’t remember by username back then either. I don’t think I was a regular though at the start. That only kicked in around 2004-05. |  |

Twenty years for me. I used to have to wait until six o'clock every evening because i was on dial up then so didn't want it to cost. I can still remember that awful screeching dial up sound. I also remember the Rivals era. Thicky Bilverstone ran the Norwich one and would occasionally come on here. |  | | |
