Sterling effort! Forums often live or die by the activity of their early members during the first year or so. Sounds like this place was nice and busy right from the off.

What was the old forum mate?

I could do with a GOT history lesson I think.

There was an old TW forum, with D/D helping to run it alongside a guy called Garry. Garry went a bit funny, so GOT was born, with most of the regulars from that forum moving over to here. The place hasn't looked back since, and is a really impressive site.

You know, it's customary to get the doughnuts in on your birthday.

WHERE'S THE DOUGHNUT MONEY DAN?

Massive congratulations, can honestly say, my days would be a lot emptier without the place.
