I just realized I passed my 10-year-anniversary in DPC 2 weeks ago... Hard to believe it's been that long... How many of us still here have 10+ under our belts? I bet there's quite a few of us :-)
ETA: I was WRONG! That was Dec 2014, I'mm 11 years and counting now, LOL...
Just went back to my 1st challenge and had a look at the names of all the entrants. I would say sadly that no more than 10 (approx) out of the 185 are still active.
BTW I came 180th. and it is still my personal worse.
I hit my 10 years back in March...I slowed a little in 2010, but I have never completely left. I have a strange loyalty to this place, as irritating as it can be at times.
Aug 2002! Beat you all - ha! But I am just on and off - or actually off, off, off, off, off, off, on - here. Hey but still hanging around :)
But my first challenge entry was in Jan 2012 - a decade later so only been participating since 4 years. And that's on an off, off, off, off, off, on basis
December 08, 2006. Still feeling like a newbie here :) Someone with a nice hat had a link on PBase to this site. It changed my life (which was difficult at that moment). Still not sure if I should hate or love him ;)
