And we won't delete your history anyway.

[i]Won't they? [/i]

We may decide to publish them in the mag if we think you have proffered awesome wisdom

I can't ever remember seeing a post published in the mag. Doesn't say much for our collective wisdom!!! 🙂

They used to do a 'posts of the months' section back in the day.

I got in it when Mike Tarrantino (sp? & 😉 ) was guest editor. My claim to stw fame.

Was your post awesomely wise, wwaswas?

I like to think it was about 1980s tube-mounted gear leverage...

I do have a couple of semi-legit claims to fame (ish). My history book is in paperback now and my fiction opus is available on Amazon Kindle... 😉

[i]Was your post awesomely wise, wwaswas? [/i]

God no.

Knowledge of down tube gearage was commonplace in them days.

[i]Wow, some of you go way back.

...who's been regularly posting on STW the longest then? [/i]

At risk of deviating away from the op, I remember Cressers so going back some way...

I've noted STW sometimes posts thread links to Twitter too, so not quite the same as appering in the mag.

[i]yeah I think that was a popular time to join [/i]

Fred always seemed to manage it, so it must be possible. Unless of course, the Ubergruppenfuhrers have tightened camp security since then...

I managed it once, before I gave the game away, but if I told you how, I'd probably be banished into the outer wastelands where there be the wailing and screaming of the souls of the damned.

And also TJ.

Bikemagic?

Edinburgh the clue is in the last part of his post.

wailing and screaming of the souls of the damned.

That's just them moaning about the weather.....

pre first mag for me. Always been pook. Always will be, otherwise the alliteration of the peaks pootles goes to pot

I wonder why Singletrack would want to archive forum posts. In twenty years time they'll hardly be relevant, and there may not be a Singletrack magazine by then.

STW? Pah - regular GoFar poster here.

...who's been regularly posting on STW the longest then?

The great hack reset the counter for everyone and not everyone logged back on with the same names- what happened to Toolmaker for instance - seem to remember him being a regular in the top 10 most frequent posters list in the mag. Gone? or new posthack nomdeplume?

Think I first found the forum when issue one was available by the tills in bike shops - whenever that was. Back then there used to be a list on the left of the page of all the people who were logged in - I very much doubt theres room for that now. The internet was black and white then and used to get switched off at 9pm.

Anyone remember this?

I have issue 10 (2003) in my cupboard as my first copy and I think I signed up to the forum a year or so before that.

Anyone remember this?
