Would you like to know why we do/can? The board was completely different back then. If you go through my 8000 posts and threads (please don't), you'll see a ton of random stuff, but that's how it was back then. It was a completely different animal.
We all liked each other, knew each other really well, and there were a lot more active members. The board has changed, I'd say for the worse, but I don't know, really. All I know is it isn't what it was 15 years ago, and that is to be expected.
My son was 5 when I joined and now he's in college. I was a successful person when I joined and now I'm a mess. Life changes, but that's ok.
My point wasn't to throw around the join date to rub it in his face, it was to ask if he was a different username before 2008 and part of the boards. It would make it easier to explain the randomness.
Saying "You started the West Wing thread and didn't do anything else" is kind of insulting. He only knows I started the WW thread because it's the first thing that comes up when my username is searched and/or it's a relatively active thread.
I contributed a hell of a lot to the board and we were all really tight with each other. We shared our lives with each other on this board. I still have friends I made from here, and still think about a bunch of people who I met and talked to from back then.

I wasn't throwing around my year to be a jerkface, I was trying see if he understood how the board has changed or if I needed to explain it.
