I didn't get my first P.M. until 11-10-2002, which was about 9 months after I joined. LOL!! Just goes to show what kind of impression I made on people back then. :lol: Anyway, the first person I ever received a P.M. from was Pavanbadal. I asked him if he could put important stuff like schedules of tv shows, etc at the top of pages so I wouldn't forget about shows that were coming up. He was very kind in his reply, and explained to me that he already did do that on most pages, and that he'd continue to do his best, and he always has done a great job with that!!

The first P.M. I ever recieved that wasn't in response to something I had written first, came from Pzelda, who was known then as Pzelda: Vicki!!! Her and I had just found out on the boards that we had known each other before we met at S.O., at a now extinct website that we both use to visit called Yesterdayland. In the P.M., she was telling me about a place where many of the former Y.L.er's were, incase I wanted to get back in contact with any of them. So, I guess that would make Pzelda the first S.O.er who voluntarily wrote to me. LOL!! Embarrassing thing is, that was my second P.M. ever, and it was 7 months after I got my first. :rotflmao:

My first 5:

Pavanbadal
Pzelda

Cashodeen

Oh MAN, I still remember sending you that PM! :lol: What's the date stamp on it? I'm guessing that was in May of 2003, when I came back? Holy cow, that was a long time ago.

My first PM is on my other name, so I have to go open up IE, log into my old name, and look. lol (holy crap, it says I last logged into my old name on 9 January 2005. It's been a while!)

My first PM was on 9 June 2003, from Leigh Ann. And, AHA, my second PM was from you, Brad. :lol: 10 June 2003. You were going by mdntrider7 at the time.


Oh man, this is too funny. I just went into my Sent Items folder, and I actually still had that very PM I sent to you, and it's the first one there. :lol:

Man, that's a weird coinscidence!! The second P.M. that I ever recieved was from you, and the second one you recieved, was from me. :lol: It does seem appropriate though that you sent me my first REAL PM, since you're one of my favorite people here, and since I've known you longer than anyone else, it shouldn't be any other way. ;)

When I first joined, I don't even think we HAD a PM feature.

The oldest one I still have saved is from pavanbadal in 2003, but I know I've gotten ones before that.

Edit: PMs didn't arrive until SO started running vBulletin in early 2002.

I have no idea. I used to clean my PM inbox regularly, so my earliest PM I have saved is from 2004. It's from Janice.

I believe the first pm I got was from Wilcap who wanted me to join one of the survivor games on one of the boards. I don't have that saved so I could be wrong but I think it was him. :lol: I know the first regular SO'er I pm'd with was Anthony ( Small Wonderian) in the summer of 2003. We would talk about football and stuff and the first PM I got saved is from Tara from September 2003 in which she wanted me to join her and some of her friends in Random so Tara got me over to CC. Thanks Tara. :D

Edit: I just checked my sent folder and I do still have the pm I sent him and it was WilCap who wanted me to join a Three's Company Survivor Game on the TC Board. It was August 10, 2003. :lol:

THANX YOU GUYS FOR BREAKING ME IN!;) :lol: :D

Mine was from someone who was banned, apparently. He/she/it was harassing me about making a rude comment about Britney Spears.

I believe it was I Love John Ritter, but I'm not entirely sure. I always clean out my PM box as soon as I read/reply because I'm anal like that :)

Haha, exactly. :D It's amazing how far back we go... I was at Yesterdayland as early as 1999, but didn't sign up to use the boards until November of 2001. I'm pretty sure you were around when I FINALLY signed up.

Oh, BTW, that reminds me. The original owners have resurrected YL, but they call it RetroLand now and it's over at retroland.com. A ton of the originals are there too... I think they resurrected it in late late late 2004, but it started getting more traffic at the end of 2005. For a while there, RL's layout looked like the one on YL, but now it's just fugly. They still have the same ideas and concepts as the original YL, it's just redesigned. (BLAH!) I signed up there in December of 2005, but I'm afraid I'm not a YL regular like I used to be, back in the day. :lol:

Yep, I always did like you too. :D I thought it was so freaking awesome that we both ended up here. You are one of only a VERY small number of YLers that joined here, but the only one that posts regularly, AND we were friends long before coming here, too. :lol:

Seth, right after we got the PM feature. Because we've both been here a very, very long time. lol

Wow...back in Dec of 2001. Seems like it wasn't that long ago. I still remember how confusing the feature was. Now look at us all.

I lost my PM virginity to some guy who told me that we couldn't have political things in our sigs/avatars. [I had "**** Bush" in it.] That was a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time ago. :lol:

I don't remember their username =/

And there was a time when we were allowed to have actual images in our signatures. :lol:

I can't believe it's been four years in July since that went bye-bye. :faint:

:rofl: I remember that. Everybody was PISSED. Mad at TJ for a really long time. lol It was in accordance with him putting up that image gallery... he was going to have it open in July of 2003, but he had a few setbacks and he didn't open the gallery to the public until January 1, 2004. :lol:

Crystal or TF. I know I sent Crsytal one and she replied to that so yeah it was her. That was back in summer 2002 when I still only posted on the HD board and PMed/talked to Crsyatl and TF a LOT. Boy how that's changed

My very first PM was from a mod who was thanking me for putting a certain member in their place. No lie, this is true. Same mod a few months later PM'd me grilling me about signing up at their site which wasn't true. Let's just say that this mod regretted making untrue accusations, lol.
