Remember the old board? Did we all have to register when the new board arrived or did our usernames and passwords filter over? I think some of us have been around longer than 10 years and it's just this board that's been up for 10 years. But I could be wrong.

We had to register with a username and password in order to post on the old board Becky. Sometime in 2003 (I think) is when that occurred. That would have been Jovitalk 2. This board is (I believe) Jovitalk 3 and the switch happened sometime in 2005.

It was 2002, in July I think, and yeah we did all have to register rather than just post. And thus, before MySpace and Facebook, the first website to eat hours of my precious time was born!

I think the old board was here as far back as 1998 (or earlier) because that's when I got a computer and internet access and I swear I've been posting on Dry County as long as I can remember having a computer. These things sort of become a blur over time though.

You're right. I remember visiting the website way before I was a member. And then Jovitalk was born and I registered immediately but I think I only started posting a couple of weeks later.

And Paul - you're so right with the pre-facebook days! This was like THE website...this and all the crazy IRC chat networks, if anyone remembers those. Things do change in 10 years. A lot!

Just over 9 years for me, although I never thought I'd still be coming here back then. It's changed a lot though.

That sounds about right. Maybe even 97. I've definitely been lingering around here since my early teens.

Scary how time flies.

10 years is unbelievable. Funny how life changes so much. Been a blessing for a very long time! And I don't think you are the oldest Devil!
