I did! I stayed at his house as well. How did I forget this?   Such a lovely fellow as well. I wish he was around these parts still. I still have some CD-Rs he made for me too.  |

The very first thread on PA was started by M@X himself one day earlier (maybe there was one deleted thread started before: this thread has TID=2, dude's has TID=3), but dude was the first to answer and start another thread.

Yeeeeeesss, Velvetclown. I can't actually tell you what we did with him in the end, but I can give you a couple of clues...   
...and what was left, we fed to the cat. |

Feels weird reading those old threads. I'm like, "who are all these members?"

I think that these 38000 (actual number: 38200) can be reduced for spammers and duplicate registrations (these happen sometimes, when a birthday calendar shows very similar names and the same age).
Nevertheless there remains a quite impressive number. Edited by someone_else - February 21 2012 at 04:13 |

I'm I the only one who thinks the thread title should be updated on a daily basis?

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...
