NeverForgetMac25 483 Report post Posted May 24, 2008 What difference does it make? Does being a member of LGW in 2002 make you any more or any less of a fan? Does it make any difference that I was viewing this site before the forums were even introduced? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Does it make any difference that I was viewing this site before the forums were even introduced? Well I never said "hey if you weren't around as a member in 2002 you aren't worth a S**T" did I?!?! As stated in the post if you would bother to read it, I'm just curious to see how many people who joined the site 6 years ago are still around. What a totally odd thing...wow...

Yzerfan1999 81 Report post Posted May 24, 2008 NFM, I think it was just for fun. As for the OP - I first joined just after the SC win in 2002 but forgot my password and got a new account in '03. So this is my first cup finals here on LGW. I love it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe I'm taking it out of context....my bad. I've just heard from too many elitist that have "been around for longer" or "have more posts". Obviously I just misinterpreted it....I'm just really needing the puck to drop right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Matt 1,048 Report post Posted May 24, 2008 I know that there are a good number of members here that have been around prior to the 2002 Cup run, but the immense traffic -- and a poor host -- back during that playoff run meant the site was repeatedly crippled due to immense traffic. It broke the database several times and the forum had to be re-installed -- complete with everyone having to re-register. However, since then the traffic has been much higher and outside of a few hiccups here and there everything's been running smoothly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HockeyCrazy3033 168 Report post Posted May 24, 2008 Yeah I was just gonna say I've been here much before 2002. I've been a member since 99 or 2000? Always got bored of my usernames so I changed 'em often. lol But yeah I've been here and I am SO excited to do this again. LGW is my family! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I entered the contest to win a box for 10 people and Gordo for Monday night. Matt if I win I will save you a seat. (still waiting on the call so they can let me know I won) They are supposed to be calling the winner today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's odd because when they called me to attend my 10 year class reunion I never found it insulting they didn't call me to attend a reunion for a class of people who graduated 5 years ahead of me...course that's just me...

MannyMaltby3418 13 Report post Posted May 24, 2008 (edited) I was one who was around before 2002...I posted under a different name before we had to re-register though and CUJO#31, I know you remember this screenname because we used to debate quite a bit about who should have been our #1, CUJO or Manny. I don't post much anymore, but check the site fairly often. Edited May 24, 2008 by MannyMaltby3418 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Always got bored of my usernames so I changed 'em often. lol But yeah I've been here and I am SO excited to do this again. LGW is my family! Stuff like this is kind of what I was trying to find out. Everyone joins up at a certain time, it's not a contest, I'm just curious to see who has been around that long. Hey guess what, I didn't watch the Wings in the 70's! I lived in St. Louis and went to see the Blues play in the Checkerdome. If someone tells me they watched before I did I'm not going to be insulted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
