As George is not member number 1, I was wondering who was the first member and who started this Forum. I am just curious.

Dr Pat Pong should be able to answer the question ... I think..

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]

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.

Thanks George!

Nice to know that bit of history

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!

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.

Hi George and Dr. PP,

Except for you two, who is the oldest member still actively posting?

[george]

Rinrada, Sunbelt, coughtintheact, seavisionburma, francois is a few that come to mind.

Dr Pong!

You are possible the only one here who can afford drinking expensive red wine 24/7

[dr_Pat_Pong]

It is my other addiction George.

I must admit to being a tad confused. I have email from ThaiVisa dated 9th February 2000 confirming my membership. How come??

The esoteric world of computers perhaps ? The TV pantomime didn't exist then

[p1p]

Seriously though. I have a whole host of messages to and from ThaiVisa throughout year 2000, none in 2002 but starting again on 3 December 2002.

We bought the expired Thaivisa.com domain in August 2001, if I remember correct, and managed to aquire the member list from the previous owner.

[p1p]

OK. That explains things, I think...

[Jimbo]

George, are you the only owner or is Dr P also co owner?
