How long have you been here? (hopefully with a bit of history)

So? As the title says. Does anyone remember the ZDNet forums? Just how many reiterations have these forums been through anyway?

Been on this site for five years (will be six in August), only collectively active for three.................

Began drifting in/out of OT in 2010........This Spring will be the first year of posting in OT without leaving....................

Offically since 2004, but I lurked around a bit before that. I remember videogames.com but didn't participate in the forums as I was all over the Madonion (now Futuremark) forums at the time.

my 5th year anniversary was just this last month.

originally came to gamespotto post on the Fable board, then it died, so figured id see what else there was to post in. joined a couple unions, stuck with one(where a big chunk of my posts are from).

wasnt until about last year that i started regularly posting in OT. in that time have made some friends, joined another Union,a nd joined a few off-site user created forums.

I've been here since it was called www.videogames.com2ndWonder

I remember those times. 

I've been here since 2001, so almost 12 years. But I don't think it was videogames.com when I came, pretty sure it was just gamespot. I came when a google search led me to the system wars forum. 

Coming up on 5 years

i joined Gamespot originally back in 2003 under another account named "MariLui64", but that was because my 11 year old mind assumed I needed an account to do anything on this site. I only posted in the forums twice: Once when I said I liked Super Mario Sunshine and another time where I called out a troll and had my account banned from the forums for a month for some reason. I deleted my account in 2006 a few months before the PS3 and Wii released because stupid.

I rejoined in 2009 under my current account because I wanted to take part in a larger gaming community than my high school, but soon realized the video game boards were flooded with Sony fans, where civility was but a pipe dream. I didn't actually start posting anything until early 2011, but my computer broke on me so I was forced to wait until December that year before I actually became a contributing member of the OT and SW boards.

So, basically, I've actually been here for a combined 7 years, but I've only been doing things for 1 year. Vagrancy at its finest.

registered in 2005.... but have been follow videogamespot.com sin\ce the 90's

Almost 8 years now, and I've been a pretty avid poster (Posting in topics that relate or catch my attention the most).

found the site in 2003

Looks like I signed up almost 10 years ago

August will mark my official 4 year mark. Found the site in '06 when I got my first computer. Good times.

Definitely since the Quest 64 review circa middle of 1998 on videogames . com

Uh.....I dunno. I stumbled across the site a few times during the PS1/N64 era.

Didn't make this account till late 05 though.

5 years in August. :o

I joined in 08, was lurking for about a year before that

Going to be six years in March. I originally came here looking up info for a game and signed up to be able to post a question. 

I've been here since it was called www.videogames.com2ndWonder

11 years.

I've been here for about 5 1/2 years. I've mostly hung around OT, although in my early days I used to hang around some game-specific boards.

7 1/2 years here. Joined the site after seeing my friend link his GS profile on Xanga. 

I've been using GameSpot since 2005, I registered in November of 2005 and became pretty active in posting blogs, using the forums, and unions. Met a few cool people back then. Haven't really been around that much recently. 

may 10th, 2005. and i have done nothing of value or worth remembering. 

It'll be my 5th year this August though I was coming to this site for at least a year before I made an account.

Since 2005.

69 years.

I've been here for one year and a half but this is my second account.

I'm guessing I have known about this site for 15 or more years. I have always gotten my reviews from here; I doubt they had forums initially. I am pretty sure it was called gamespot when I first visited here. In 2004 I signed up because I wanted to give Giants Citizen Kabuto for PS2 a review. But my account got deleted or something. I have recently signed up again 6 months ago under this username.

I joined in November of 2006.  I was such a dumb teenager.  I can't stand to look at my old posts.

2005 im pretty sure i originaly signed up so i could talk on the tony hawks board and the halo 3 forum. lol still remember some of the ideas people were coming up with like a spike grenade and it eneded up being in h3 too.

oh ive seen the board change to the wide format it has now. looks better. now they just need to get unions to the wide format.
