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?

RIP Sir Bobby

Amazing to read that some of you have been on here 20+ years. That is very impressive. I am already struggling and I've only been on here a few months. I doth my cap to you all for your stamina.

To be fair, the first 23 years were pretty plain sailing.....its only become hard work since you joined....

..and what was the name of the club phoneline which you could call and listen to news at about 25p a minute!?

I think Bryan Knights presented it.

Used to dread the phonebill arriving every month!

Clubcall

They used to keep you on the line for about a minute first with a load of waffle before they actually said 'and I'm afraid we've yet to have confirmation of Slater signing his deal, but ring back in half an hour for more news then'

and I did, mut have cost my old man's business a fortune.

Shame we don’t hear about her ham sandwiches now.


I think her best one was some people actually drive better after having a few drinks so drink driving's not as bad as most people make out.

Is that a flying car that's driven better after a few?

Your best bet may be to contact Dan Thomas to see if you could get one printed... or if Phil still has any from when they last went on sale back in 2008 (don’t know if they did a 40th anniversary re-release!)...

I remember when you could post the traditional TWTD greeting now abbreviated to SUQ

and there was a time Bender was banned, which made it very frustrating for those off us who are Futurama fans

Been here since the start (fanzine to forum transition). I remember when ITFC chat seemed like the only viable competition to TWTD, but it was never as active.

I remember a few matches before the end of a season we had ticket going spare. So helped someone get to see the match as it was sold out (twtd) and he was shocked that I was just a kid turning up with my mum alongside me.

That was one of my fears as an early contributor. That someone would discover I was a kid giving my opinions on ITFC and not take me seriously. On the original board, I went as EEJB, but changed it later on. I can't remember if you originally had a secured name. Some of what i remember maybe blurred with that ITFC chat.

On the nostalgia front, I also remember when Phil made his book I met him in person before a home game and got a signed edition!

It's interesting how issues have developed and changed over time. I remember people from other team's sites coming on here and spamming a subject, so that is all you could see. So obviously, being a kid, I went on theirs and did it straight back.


Ah, board invasions. Decamping to the Glassblowers one when there were problems with TWTD or the Whigfield one....

Mark E Owen did the news service, I implemented the forum which as some have said didn't need to be registered for, but it regularly had to be cleared down as if 2 people posted within 5 secs of each other it became corrupted.

This was the software we used and is the reason we have to have a threaded board today: http://www.scriptarchive.com/demos/wwwboard/wwwboard.html


That form at the bottom brings back a few memories.

I used to write for TWTD in those far off days when it was a respected fanzine... not sure the interweb was invented back then. Does that count?

About 17 years I think. Come to think of it, I really enjoyed good ol days, having arguments and disagreements with pretty much everyone under the clever guise of CGS1985!
