For the occasion I modified the logo a little :angel:

First post was Sept. 26, 2011 => https://forum.lddb.com/viewtopic.php?p=1#p1

Snapshot at 10 years:
  • 111,728 posts
  • 8,521 topics
  • 4,888 active members

Let's see if we can still keep it rolling for another 10 years... just for the fun of it.

Julien

Whoa, does this mean that all internet forums prior to 2011 were in CLV? That's crazy! :lol:

Congrats, Julien! Get yourself some cake! :thumbup:

Thanks Julian for starting and maintaining this hugely indispensable site!!! :)

It's has been so helpful with the many members we can brainstorm & pick brains with and the database has made collecting and categorizing my LD collection so much easier.

That's hard to say because the "joining date" on the forum is ported from the LDDb account.
It's possible to have a forum account showing a date before Sept 26, 2011.

All I can see is that among the 75 early users who signed up on LDDb in the first year (August 2002~August 2003), 18 are still here with an active account. But I know that some opened a new account at some point so these stats are not very precise!

I'm one of them... can't remember if I signed up on the lddb database in the first year or so, but it was a looong time ago... and still, it seems yesterday that I was actively collecting laserdiscs... time passes by very fast!

Oh, forgot to say "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" to the LDDB forum! :D

Well done, Julien, please keep up the excellent work!

I joined back in November 2011, I never realised how new the forums were back then! I always just thought of myself as a newbie arriving into a well established forum; there was so much happening even back then!

Here's to another 10 years!

You can also use the self-searching "ego search" (top-right "View your posts" link) and click on the page links to the highest number
