August 2008 club sound off like you got a pair!

Count me in. And I have more posts than Gilmo, which is just......weird.

Anyone got a screenshot of the very first iteration of FCB from back then to share?

I took a long break.


Wasn't around here much from 2013-2016

I visit almost everyday. I don't post much. Which is crazy I never run out of things to say.

I joined 9/17/2008 after a friend mentioned that many had moved here from another site.

Joined after [MENTION=2092]BowmanChromeAddict[/MENTION] mentioned it to me.

Although I didn't do much on BMB anyway...

8/7/2008 here... I still remember all the drama and fast moving of the "Big Switch".

Only 700+ posts but I've taken multiple breaks during that time and try to provide more quality over quantity.

I am also completely mobile at this point, and I think the best decision Chris has made was making the app a few years ago. Otherwise not sure I would be on here still...

This will always be "Gangsta's Paradise"!

Thanks,
Jeff

Although the first app that I bought from Tapatalk sucked.


This new one through the BYO program has been great since I got the push notifications to work.

Nice. I obviously wasn't here then, but must say...

"Viva la Revolucion!"

I stumbled across this site back when I was a protesting member of the Coalition Against the Unfair Treatment of Cardboard. I had high hopes that FreedomCardboard.com was the key to a worldwide spread of peace and stifling dissent by targeting activists for specific abuses, such as pack searching, airbrushing, back-dooring, hand stamping, ill-treatment in bicycle spokes, yellow bordered Fleer cards, and intrusive Becket Moderation surveillance. Some of you non-2008 members only see the surface of interesting threads, long-lasting friendships, and an easy to use interface with a dedication to improvements, but the founding fathers of Freedomcardboard.com risked their lives, their screen names, and eternal persecution for the good of the hobby. "Long Live August 2008"!

OG Day One 8/7/08 Club reporting in.

It's amazing how quick and easy the transition was from the Beckett board.
Beckett imploded, we pilgrims boarded Captain Gilmore's ship and it was smooth sailing to the promised land of FCB.

I don't think I've gone a few days in these almost nine years without reading the board. It's great how many FCB originals are still here.

I guess I might be considered a newbie, as I've only been here since 5/18/12, but hey - my 5 year FCB anniversary is coming up!

 

[BBCgalaxee]

Still have my fcb t shirt and squishy ball somewhere. And maybe even David Cooper and Tim Beckham cards.
