I was just having a look around the org and wondered how long it had been going.
Which led to me wondering how long each of us has been members?
I have been an orger of nearly a year now, I joined last year on the 15 July.
What about you?

I have a feeling it is longer than it states in the top RH corner....

I joined while back in Wick in 2000 - it was at the time of the "Dump The Pump" original protests http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/860572.stm and I suspect that when the new forums were activated existing members join dates were affected. I know for certain it was NOT Sept 2001 and it was before then...

So I am going to say it was July 2000.......

I setup the first version of the forum in August 2000.

The first one was a modified version of Tforum which was later replaced by phpBB and then finally by vBulletin.

I guess between 2 & 3 years, but I don't get onto the forum as often as I would like. Takes up too much time once you get involved in an interesting thread.

So I wasn't too far out then?
I looked on my old PC at my old AOL account emails and I was receiving the Newsletter in December 2000 so I'll split the difference and say October 2000...

Found The Org in Sept.2000 when there was an item about it on The BBC.
Like Madpict I had to rejoin at a later date when the site was updated.

For thos eof you on a nostalgia trip. Have any of you seen the Way Back Machine that is stroing web pages from all over the web. Caithness.org got noticed by it in 2000 and it has grabbed many of our pages over the years for posterity. Check it out at http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.caithness.org

You will notice someof the changes over the years. The script means that the date is still current on the front page. See how deep you can go before you run out of linked pages in the bits they have saved from our web site.

The links to the message board still bring you back here.

You can search for many old and gone web site pages on that site.

Like MadPict I joined well before my join date indicates as I too was "lost" during one of the changes to a new system and had to sign up again. (Can anybody remember the dates that happened?)

I know I started prior to early 2001 because I used the "For Sale" section then. I well remember the "Boycott the Pumps" campaign so I guess I must have been joined around mid to late 2000 and it's still just as enjoyable.
