Toby or not Toby Posted 11 July 2007 Posted 11 July 2007 I was just intreged as some people have got over 10,000 posts!
Bluefoxtim Posted 11 July 2007 Posted 11 July 2007 Yeah, there was a forum before this one but that folded, and I believe half the people came to this one after it was created, and the other half went onto talkingballs - hence the 'rivalry'.....I THINK. (I can remember some discussions about it as I think I joined a month or two after the forum was created)

(I can remember some discussions about it as I think I joined a month or two after the forum was created) From looking at the joined date july 4th seems to be the earliest time someone had joined!
potter3 Posted 11 July 2007 Posted 11 July 2007 Mark's the first member since he runs it And it was started July '04 I think.
Mark Posted 11 July 2007 Posted 11 July 2007 Yeah it was July 4th, the day of the Euro 2004 final. The reason my profile says the 11th is because the first version of FT only lasted a week is because I *pressed the wrong button* and didn't have any backups! http://web.archive.org/web/20040710130307/...k.co.uk/forums/ Here's FoxesTalk in it's most earliest days

Tomassi Posted 11 July 2007 Posted 11 July 2007 I'm one of the originals after Scowy persuaded me to join, still not even reached 3,000 posts eek! I remember on the OS Boards that some geek posted 26,000 posts and was well proud of it thinking they owned the place, how sad! Despite mine amd Marks disagreements he has done a good job with this site so fair play to the lad.
Guest Posted 12 July 2007 Posted 12 July 2007 I'm one of the originals after Scowy persuaded me to join Yes, he used his 'methods' of 'persuasion' on me too. I'm still undergoing counselling, and the scars are beginning to fade.
Babylon Posted 12 July 2007 Posted 12 July 2007 Yeah, there was a forum before this one but that folded, and I believe half the people came to this one after it was created, and the other half went onto talkingballs - hence the 'rivalry'.....I THINK. (I can remember some discussions about it as I think I joined a month or two after the forum was created) Talking balls was around before this. I think Mark got banished or left after some arguments and decided to create this place. I'm one of the original sad buggers as well.
Tubes Posted 12 July 2007 Posted 12 July 2007 Yes, he used his 'methods' of 'persuasion' on me too. I'm still undergoing counselling, and the scars are beginning to fade. he left scars?
filbertway Posted 12 July 2007 Posted 12 July 2007 Can't believe it's been 3 years. Looking back at some of my posts, I sounded like dannyboy does now. Not that I've improved that much, but I must be upto a fox's standards now. Nice one Mark on keeping the site running and improving over the 3 years
Geo V Posted 12 July 2007 Posted 12 July 2007 Ive been on here since January including a 2 month break as I was abriad and it seems like 5 years . Im not one for forums and stuff on any subject but we do get some good conversation pieces and some inside info which makes the forum worthwhile. Im appraching 4000 posts which is worrying considering I was away for so long so I am as much to blame for the whoring on this site.
Guest Posted 12 July 2007 Posted 12 July 2007 he left scars? He's pure evil. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

stez Posted 12 July 2007 Posted 12 July 2007 I am Member number 3. The first non admin, non Mark Member. harsh, i wouldn't call you a no mark.
Cat Burger Posted 12 July 2007 Posted 12 July 2007 I joined a week after FT birth and I was once a moderator! It all seems so long ago, I still check this place for news daily. Well done Mark for standing the test of time
