    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    You are correct for this group! We were a renaissance. As I understand it the site was really started in about 2012 but it didn't really flourish until two years later. That was when the first eBay group refugees joined. When I joined May 15, 2014 I noticed a few posts that were dated 2012 -- very few!

    Good memories, @mmarco102 . Looks like you joined in 2018!

    I was going to announce it with fireworks, bunting, a party and free drinks but you blew it :D

    So you have to buy the free drinks.:eek:

    A decade has passed and we have come a long way.

    We get new members everyday but we have lost a few initial members, but most of their posts remain.

    I'm gonna admit, this is the only social media site I've ever been on. I was watching a movie once. A character said something like, 'Whatever it is, there's an online forum for it.' Really? I thought. I turned the movie off and found y'all!

    Props to the Class of 2014!

    I’ve actually been wondering this lately… Who owns this site and pays for it? I assume there is a cost to host all of these archived posts? Or am I wrong?

    This is not a social media site........ it's a web site ...where we come to talk about our interests , and help others who want to learn more about things they own.

    We are social ....we have media........but this ain't no tic tok !:playful::yuck:
