I first became aware of this site back in '03, not too long after it began. I signed the petition enthusiastically, and started haranguing my friends, family members, and anyone else that would listen, to go to originaltrilogy.com and do likewise. Anyone remember the old link banner images that had a picture of Han and, IIRC, said something about Han shooting first? I used a modified version of that as my avatar on the other online forums I was a part of at the time. For some reason or another (probably time constraints), I never got very active in the OT.com forum back then. I lurked quite a bit and actually had an account, but only posted a couple times. I think my old account must have been pruned at some point due to inactivity.

Anyway, after a loooong period of absence (which no one would've noticed, given my serial-lurker-status in the first place), I returned in the wake of Ady's completed ANH:R. At that point I tried to revive my old account, but due to its apparent pruning, started a new account instead.

I realize that none of this is actually relevant or interesting, but since everyone else is sharing their experiences with this site's history, I figured I'd do the same. Also, I too affirm that Frink's postcount is truly a thing to behold.
