I was an active poster from ‘96, I think*, until 2000 or so, and then an occasional lurker off and on throughout the oughts, before returning in the early teens.
The first time around was when the internet was still very new, and I learned a lot of useful lessons around how to engage with on-line life.
*From reading other posts, I guess this site started in ‘97? I had no idea/memory that I was here from the very beginning.
