It looks like someone named Martin is one of the members that still comes around now and again. Joined in April 2002.

I didn't realize how young TF is! Not even 5 years old. I thought maybe it had started around 98/99 when the internet really started to take off. Which method do you think brought the most people here? Search, word of mouth, ads?

It'll be funny when it's 10+ in the future and there are still a few of us that come on here from time to time to chat.

Warez's posts by then: 999999. Counter can't go any higher lol

Chopper visits now and then. Don't know much about him though. Think he's in university.
