Jimbo Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 As George is not member number 1, I was wondering who was the first member and who started this Forum. I am just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

george Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 A bit of history: This forum opened 2002-11-19. I guess the first actual post (after initial testing) was made by member Luma: http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=34 After we changed software from Ikonboard to Invison Power Board some of the very first member number and post numbers was somehow screwed up. The very first member was "Administrator", they guy who installed the first board. The second member was me, the third member was dr_pat_pong.

huski Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 just a note, if a member's name is changed it will increase their Member No.: as the system considers the name change as a new member yet their previous posts/avatar remain the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

george Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 Fester is still around as Admin, but mainly does the main website at www.thaivisa.com. He helps me out with the forum on holidays and so on. But he doesn't post so much, just hides around as a submarine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fester is a graduate of the George School of Chang Imbibing, and is currently doing post doctoral studies in beer swallowing. A side effect is a blurry keyboard, and an addled brain.

Fester had the swallow surgically removed, so it is a case of simply pouring it down. That'd wow 'em in one of the Bay pubs Bronco. George would like a break from Fester, so he might shout him a p*ssup in the Antipodes. Might win a dollar running Fes against the locals in an imbibing competition.
