Longest Standing ALFAN?

Post by Ksiel »

A comment by Veilan has me wondering. Who is the longest standing ALFAN?

I would think that if they still come by to the forums and contribute this would keep them in the running even if they don't have an "active" player.

I know from a discussion with Magile the other night in chat that we were both around when ALFA was almost first conceived and it was a little blurb on a website. This was well before NWN1 was released.

Anyone have a better memory than I? How long have you been around?

I think Tridisus may be.

Worth checking out for some nostalgia:

Just for curiosity.

I by no means think that being around longer means anything. I will openly admit that even though I have been with ALFA a bit, there are many more than have contributed far more than I. Though I am trying to remedy this.

When I joined, I had no idea I would still be here after 2 degrees, a wife, 3 kids, 2 jobs, 2 houses.

I expected nothing less from you...it's the other members that have to bring up how long they've been here in every other conversation I worry about. :P

As to the question, since Mord joined in '74, I think the award clearly goes to him....

Burt missed the quantity vrs. quality comparison. This is evident in the fact that he lacks both. :P

Ksiel, any chance you still keep in touch with Arwen?
There's a place I like to hide
A doorway that I run through in the night
Relax child, you were there
But only didn't realize and you were scared
It's a place where you will learn
To face your fears, retrace the years
And ride the whims of your mind
