According to the database that was the first one yes. But there was another post before that one which was deleted after the forum gained momentum. At some point a fellow called "john" joined in to help to get posts on the forum, but John also disappeared with some of those posts after he helped to get the forum going.

Today, 275838 posts later, it is hard to imagine that I had to create a ghost user to get things started.

Without checking back, I think the board was started in the evening of 17th May 2007.

Perhaps I'm speaking out of turn here, but I suspect Pieter's creativeness included a little 'poaching'. :D: ;-)

All the same, great initiative, well done! :thumbup: :thumbup:

Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!
