Ten Long Years

[Sailor Steve]

Now I'm a day late and a dollar short, but since the dates are off anyway, who says this one isn't too?

My profile, over which I have no control, says that I joined in November 2002. My old profile, in the archives, says it was December. I skipped both those dates in favor of this one.

Whichever was the case, according to the date, which may be off anyway. I made my very first post ten years ago yesterday!

So there! :O:

[Takeda Shingen]

Congratulations, newbie. :O:

In seriousness, thank you for being the person that you are on these forums. You are a great colleague and a great man.

[Cybermat47]

I would post some bizarre comment like this:
Aww, look at ickle Steve on his first day at Subsim!

...but I've just got too much respect for you.

Congratulations, Herr Kaleun!

[magic452]

From the thread title I though the police caught up with you. :o:o:D:D
Maybe something you said in the "Dear Steve" thread.

Congrats on a long time friendship with Subsim.

Happy tenth anniversary with Subsim :salute::salute:

[nikimcbee]

What was your entry point for subsim Steve? I remember you working on SH2 stuff, but that is a distant memory now.

[TarJak]

Nice to have you here when I arrived Steve. You are a gentleman and a scholar, and there aren't many of us left.:D

[kraznyi_oktjabr]

Congrats Steve! :salute:

Keep good posts coming and as you may know "rolling stone gathers no moss". :03:

[Herr-Berbunch]

:woot:

Long years? That implies you've not had fun here!

Well done for sticking with us.

[Skybird]

Steve? Which Steve...?

:O:

[mookiemookie]

So I guess what you're saying is that you're here to stay? :D

[Rhodes]

Happy tenth anniversary young Steve. Here's to another ten :Kaleun_Cheers::Kaleun_Party:

Best regards.

I was under the impression that you came with the server when Neal created the site.

Subsim crowd's beloved Grandpa Steve. :salute:

Not for me, but I'll have him for a dad - and access to his models and books. :03:

[Onkel Neal]

Congratulations, newbie. :O:

In seriousness, thank you for being the person that you are on these forums. You are a great colleague and a great man.

Hear! Hear! Thanks for finding that origin post, Steve! It would be a cool thing to read others' first post, how did you find it? :shucks:

Did you see the guys who welcomed you? Wonder if any of them are still kicking....

Congratulations, Herr Kaleun!
But you did say it, in an attempt to claim you didn't say it? :doh:
:rotfl2:

Oh, and when I joined Subsim I was older than your parents are now. The last time I was "ickle" your dad wasn't even born yet.

[Sailor Steve]

What was your entry point for subsim Steve? I remember you working on SH2 stuff, but that is a distant memory now.
I thought that was what I said in my opening post. :sunny:

I joined late in 2002 looking for stuff to fix the very broken SH2. I found those patches and mods, and started asking questions, pretty much the same as everybody does.

[Sailor Steve]

Nice to have you here when I arrived Steve. You are a gentleman and a scholar, and there aren't many of us left.:D
And I'm not so sure about you. :O:




How many times have we made that same joke together? At least three.

Hear! Hear! Thanks for finding that origin post, Steve! It would be a cool thing to read others' first post, how did you find it? :shucks:
From your own 'Earliest Member' thread, which I just linked. There you'll see that Spoon 11th made a link to the archives, and then I used his link to find my first post.

Did you see the guys who welcomed you? Wonder if any of them are still kicking....
Nope. None of the other guys in that thread come around anymore.

Nice one Steve :woot:

[Cybermat47]

:rotfl2: Well, yeah, but this way I'm safe! :O:

Mine is second from the bottom here: http://www.subsim.com/phpBB_archive1/viewtopic.php?t=44646&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=60

I totally remember having that black sky problem.

[Sailor Steve]

Cool! :sunny:

[vienna]

Ten long years, eh? Any sign of a call from the Governor?...

Congrats, Steve! :up:

<O>

[AVGWarhawk]

10 :yeah:

[Oberon]

Niice, I'd forgotten all about those archives. The first post I can find on there is one in the 'Strange pictures of the USS Scorpion' thread: http://www.subsim.com/phpBB_2002/viewtopic.php?mode=viewtopic&topic=5939&forum=2&start=45

Quite a few names there that I don't see any more, and a few that I do, Bill and Xabba are two of them.

Congrats on ten years Steve, and like Tak says, thanks for being such a great part of this community. The place wouldn't be the same without you. :yep:

[Jimbuna]

Well done young Steve...least that's what you keep telling me :O:

To the next ten :sunny:

[Penguin]

Thanks for being a productive member of this community! :salute:
10 years, eh? Guess you're now a member of die alte Gang. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ZSiHfED1Cw&feature=player_detailpage#t=263s)

[Jimbuna]

So Steve really was the one in the red dress!! :o


:O:

[soopaman2]

So Steve really was the one in the red dress!! :o


:O:

No he is Agent Smith, and will eat us.

Blue pill, red pill, Steve made both of them.

Good luck in the matrix in the future.

[u crank]

Congratulations on ten years Steve. :salute:

This would be a different place without you.

I just realized I'm just over the one year mark.:smug:

[Sailor Steve]

Thanks for being a productive member of this community! :salute:
I appreciate the sentiment, and the compliment, but posting direct links to that kind of language can get you into serious trouble.

[HunterICX]

:Kaleun_Cheers:Here's for another ten years, Steve!

[reignofdeath]

Cheers:woot:Honored to have you here Steve! You bring alot of character to the forums :salute::up:

[troopie]

Sorry I missed this thread mate, I've been away a little while.

Congrats on the long service.

You're a wealth of knowladge and that is great for an ignoramus like me!



BTW: loved how you handled the 'Dear Steve' thread. :up:
