Been thinking about how long I been on this forum and can't remember why I even joined since I don't don't own and never have owned a Subaru. My post is littered with spelling errors. Thankfully it was at a time when no one gave a toss about spelling or grammar!

Bit of a random post, so what was your first, post them up so we can have a laugh at how lame they are.

That's pretty good going that you got a response in half an hour. I think it took me about 6 months before anyone acknowledged any of my posts.

Seems mine was about speeding.

Quite a reminder that I bought a new car, and in 3 weeks got caught speeding and crashed it, despite being on holiday for 9 days of the 3 weeks!

Anyone who orginally joined in 1998/1999 may not find their first post as there are definitely some posts missing from the old bespoke board software.

My very first post on my old username was about colour coding side skirts and mirrors... it is no longer in the database!

Yeah I think search only goes back to 2002...this is my supposed first post: https://www.scoobynet.com/drivetrain...tml#post910466

I'm pretty certain I joined in 2001 ish, as 2000/01 is about the time when I had my first scoob and heard about scoobynet via my chiropractor who owned an RA.

However, like a typical noob I'm talking about dump valves

My first post was a thread I made enquiring about hawkeye STI's. Ditchymaster is the only person I recognise who posted on it.

Could be entertaining to see TubbyTommys first post. My bet says something about dump valves/roof scoops/rally stickers or a combination of the aforementioned.

2001, I asked about insurance.... no replies.
To be fair, I didn't actually ask a question though

(And where I said I'm 32 - I must've been mistaken, as I'm only 39* now )


*that may be a fib.

Here is my first post. Funnily enough I totally forgot I'd posted this and brings back fond memories of test driving both these cars...neither of which I went for in the end!
It took me a whole year to find the car I wanted!

Try "threads started" rather than posts , should narrow it down unless your 1st post was a reply to someone's thread.

Yep all the join dates got screwed up at one point on the conversion from the old bespoke board software if you remember (it said everyone joined in 1970) and when they got restored a few of them were incorrect.
