[UTUSN]

4. Catwoman Catwoman Catwoman!!!!!!!!1 n/t

[LeftyMom]

5. The first person to respond to me was qnr, I remember that.

The only other person I specifically remember noticing to on my first day posting, I think I just made a little mental note to pay attention, having noted that we had something in common. Let's just say that worked. ;)

[qnr]

64. Amazing, I was actually first at something :) n/t

[Left Is Write]

6. There are so many, I don't really remember.

It was probably either ZombyWoof or one of an unmentionable married couple.

[Kali]

7. Haven't met anybody in person but first picture I remember seeing

was Leftymom. I recall that it was a popular post with lots of replies. :evilgrin:


Loots?

[LeftyMom]

8. *snort*

I want you to know I died laughing when I read that.

I really didn't notice what made that post so popular until after it was posted, since I'd only looked at the pic on my postage stamp-sized camera screen. :)

[Robb]

26. Ah yes

The famous "headlights" snapshot. :rofl:

[Haole Girl]

9. mutley_r_us was the first person to send me a PM...

and CaliforniaPeggy and ZombieNixon were the first to answer my posts and respond to all my stupid questions.


And, I can't believe I accidentally started a new thread with this post!!! How embarrassing!!! :blush:

[khashka]

10. Well there were 3

Although, I've never met any in Real Life.

Dwickam, Underground Panther, and a woman who has since been banned.

When I first came to DU, I felt out of place and didn't post for a long time. When I did they made me feel welcome and valuable.

(And look at the monster they created! Bet they're sorry now :) )

Khash.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

12. I forget the first people to respond to me on DU.

The first time I met DUers I spent most of the time hanging out with lionesspriyanka and ThomCat...a troublesome trio was born that day. I met many more DUers that day as well.

[ThomCat]

36. We haven't yet Begun to cause trouble.

[SeattleGirl]

17. Me, really? Wow.

:hi:

For me, it was kephra. I would always go to LBN first, and if I saw his name on a post, I'd read it. Same as for the other forums -- if keph's name was there, I knew it would be a post I'd want to read. I still miss him so much.

[deucemagnet]

18. I can't remember who I saw first, but the first thread I ever replied to

was one of nostamj's toon threads. Of course that was way back when I mostly hung out in GD under another screen name, and way back when we still had nostamj with us. :cry:
