How many years have you been visiting this site?
 
I had to log in today and my account name is Duke 41. That was my age. I will be 49 in March. Have I really been a member for almost 9 years? How long you some of you been visiting this site?

9 years +/- for me and I have never learned a thing. :biglaugh:

Swimmer 12-15-2009 12:15 PM

Too long
 
Nine plus years as well. Since JR was on a kitchen table in Quincy, Mass.

Been here since the day the site went up in March of 2000, at the MSBA show at Cordage Park.

Had to re-register in October, which is why my profile reads the way it does.

6+ for me......I think the Grateful Dead said it best...What a long Strange Trip its Been

Raven 12-15-2009 03:20 PM

i was a young man back then
 
now i am OLD :confused:

BigFish 12-15-2009 03:52 PM

I don't "visit" here.......I live here! Been registered since 2003!

Slipknot 12-15-2009 05:04 PM

Like MikeP, since way back 9 plus years ago. At first anyone could post and you didn't even have to be registered. I came in the door and have not been able to find my way out. I guess I am lost.

Jenn 12-15-2009 08:25 PM

me too....pretty close to the beginning of time :wall: back when I could probably name all the members and had actually met a good portion of them too.....
...now my memory is bad, I cant keep track or keep up anymore! HAHA!

Fly Rod 12-15-2009 08:26 PM

Since 2003= 6 years.

nightfighter 12-15-2009 08:45 PM

Been here awhile... I think I liked the MSBA shows at Cordage Park the best, as I knew nothing and world of custom plugs and high end gear was first revealed to me. I think a more painful question would be how many $$$$ have you spent since you found S-B....








<<<<<<---------<<<<<< This long....

Slingah 12-15-2009 10:18 PM

It is funny how something on a screen can be a "place"....but that is exactly what it is...a cool place. About 7 years for me...I lurked for awhile....

Raven 12-16-2009 12:39 AM

JENN my DEAR ....whatever you say ...even in print
the mind believes

so when you say my memory is BAD
it only serves to make it so

because you giving your brain a command
same as when someone says
the frequently mentioned phrase
i can't remember (never say that)
instead you say : | i am remembering
i will remember-it's coming back to me
and it will <===

and start taking GINKO BILOBA - It works great!
start smelling some ordinary Rosemary herb too
because the olfactory senses are linked to memory
and you'll be amazed at some total recall you have

HESH2 12-16-2009 08:04 AM

Wish I had made a 5% commission, could quit my day job. Instead I've spent 10 years making far less than supermarket bagging wages to do this. :wall:

But the friendships and experiences have been certainly worth it!

Pete F. 12-16-2009 09:14 AM

6 years I think

Vogt 12-16-2009 09:33 AM

almost 5 years

Fishpart 12-16-2009 10:30 AM

Since maybe day two or three..

BobT 12-16-2009 11:05 AM

I think about 7 or 8. I can't remember back that far. Heck......I can't remember yesterday !!!

chawk20 12-16-2009 11:11 AM

2004, should of signed on years before. I don't post much but this is by far the best fishing site.

Crafty Angler 12-16-2009 11:41 AM

2001 for me - boy, somebody oughta start a Classic Thread thread...;)

Without a doubt, there's been some beauts...:hihi:

Duke41 12-16-2009 11:52 AM

that for sure. how about the flame war with that highschool kid many years ago. Or the pic of Notoros illegal striper gutted in the kithchen sink.

Crafty Angler 12-16-2009 01:04 PM

To tell you the truth, I was thinking about some of the more humorous ones

I don't think there's much point in trying to re-ignite any smoldering embers

Justfishin' 12-16-2009 01:16 PM

Almost 8 years

Canalratt1 12-16-2009 02:00 PM

I can't be the only person that has lost his mind and joined this board in the last couple of years but so far the consensus is that everyone is an OLD timer.

ElSluggo 12-16-2009 05:10 PM

Not long, 2 plus years, a quick way to learn though. Thanks everyone.

piemma 12-16-2009 05:42 PM

6+ years and every bit of it fun:love:

Thumper 12-16-2009 05:45 PM

less than a year but the things i have learned on this site will last me a life time. this site got me back into fishing. i would go maybe ten times a year in high school then off to college only really went a couple times in the summer. this year i would say easily over a hundred outings. maybe around 65 consecutive outings, i would say i fished more than i slept this year and can't wait to do it again next year. :cheers:

RickBomba 12-16-2009 06:15 PM

First post for me was in December of 2000, had to rejoin in April 2001, so lets say 9 years for me right now (I found the site when trying to think of how to occupy Jan-March 2001 off to re-coup from knee surgery).
I miss Patrick, too!
I believe there were about 60 or so members when I started.
I used to be deathly afraid of bassmaster, as he constantly harangued me for my use of herring for bait! We became buds later.
Billy Mitz and chris L. were my first friends on the site.
I helped plan the original TFCTFN (Year six or seven this year) with the rest of the kids.
It's been quite the ride!
