[QUOTE="Henry, post: 280737, member: 158"] "c'mon, August!" ring a bell for anyone? I may -- just may -- have everyone here beat but Eric Noah. :) I found Eric's site on the third or fourth week of August of 1999 - I don't remember the exact date, but I remember that it was within a week of when he put it up. I remember when Eric used to post regularly to rec.games.frp.dnd and the Wizards newsgroups in their days before their message boards. There wasn't a day that went by back then that I didn't log in daily to check for new 3E tidbits. The very first boards were those crappy red and black boards in January of 2000, and they changed by april of 2000 into the color scheme that has remained popular even today. I was member #40 on the 2nd generation board. OK, that's 14.9 of my 15 seconds. Dear God, I can remember when Squirrel Nutkin joined Eric's boards! I'll go crawl into a corner and gum my strained rice now. :D [/QUOTE]
