Interesting comment made a few posts ago about how long guys have been here on D4C Forums.
I have been here over 10 years. How about you?
I don't often post, but it's at least 10 yrs. for me as well
Since they day it was put online...which was? '97??
The D4C is celebrating its 15th anniversary this year.
Jay started it in 1994. I joined a year or so after that. I found an ad in a model car magazine and sent for his newsletter. He started a BB on AOL and that was the first real on-line car club. Boy, did that make a difference in the hobby.
BUT I forget when the Diecast.org D4C began. I'm thinking, also, it was around 1997.
Membership began ?
I can't remember when I first became a member. I let my membership lapse a couple of times (not on purpose) and to re-join, but just don't know the original sign-up date.
Not sure, but...
When I first started following, AOL was my provider and I was using a 28.8 modem. Remember the travelling t-shirt?
I'm thinking maybe four or five years, but I've been collecting over 16 years.
I remember that T-shirt. I think I was the 25th person to sign it.
10/11 years (I think) joined club before that, no pc, which
I thought I would never own. Lots of memory filled trips to Media.
I have all of the D4C LEs and the "Got Mint" tee shirt, so it has been a long time. I've been collecting since 1995, and it was only a short time after that I discovered the website and the club. I remember that the first page of the site was yellow then. So, maybe, since 1996 or '97?
Since I don't remember what I had for lunch yesterday, you're asking an awful lot!
I know I've been here a while - but I have no idea how long. At least 10 years, I'm thinking.
Must be more than 10 years.
