    Thanks Fuzz, dang I was way out!
     
  4. unless I'm looking at it wrong...mine says #31?

    Seems my number was waaaay higher back before the later versions of HAMB...like, back when those stickers of the blue flamed car with the carson top and dude with DA haircut got sent to me :p I still had ONE of those left...it's now on the rear glass of the Chieftain where it's been since I put it there in '02...the other one got scraped off by a guy who wound up with the '51 shoebox I put it on...

    I occasionally wonder where some folks went.

    I was reading the JJ before there was a message board, I think... but I am 3686. Found the HAMB years later. I can't believe how high the numbers have gotten now.

    I'm still here, number 238. I remember thinking how big the HAMB had gotten by time I registered.

    I lurked from March to July of 2001, but I was signed up on the previous board and had been on the HAMB off and on since 1999.

    The first 3 are Ryan.

    I Know there are some people that have been on here longer than I have. I joined in December of 1998 under the name Joe Doakes... but then changed to SamIyam in 1999.

    I know DrJ was on here before me so was Shag, Killer and a few others.

    I think the numbers aren't that accurate the closer you get to #10... I think it has something to do with the revamps.

    The thing I miss from the old-old HAMB is when you would click on, I think it was somone's e-mail address... they'd have some silly saying that would pop up.

    Anyone else remember that?

    Or when Ryan's name had a lowercase r?

    Ryan?

  24. 1567, i lurked for about a year. i also remember that there was a lot of inactive names (zero posts and check on the board maybe once) and it was hard to find a name not taken.
