Longest standing members.

I didn't really notice this until just the other day but I've been on here for 15 years. Wow. I got to paying attention to other users join dates when they have them listed and noticed that people that have been here longer than me seemed to be few and far between. Which got me thinking, who are some of the longest tenured members here? When was OS even created? I remember I got into this forum around the same time that I was big into (and creating rosters for) NCAA Football on the original XBox.

Re: Longest standing members.

OS was originally Madden Mania and converted to OS as we know it today in 2002. There are quite a few users still with the original join date of that conversion (all will be the same) but few are active anymore.

Hard to measure who would be the longest tenured active user would be but if I had to guess I would say either BK or SPTO maybe (first two names that came to mind that are still active).

(Not counting Steve of course)

Don't know that I can say I remember Madden Mania. I know that I get on OS pretty much daily, multiple times. Especially in my sports gaming months. It's probably my most frequented website ever. Minus a few bumps in the road, here and there including a couple bans, it's been pretty good to me.

Madden Mani was my spot for all the news when I was in college. Been a lurker for 14 years but trying to be more active

Re: Longest standing members.

I vaguely remember Madden Mania, but I wasn't a member back then.

Re: Longest standing members.

I wasn't here when it was Madden Mania, but I was here before we changed to "the new board" in July 2002.


That's the "join date" a lot of us have.

Re: Longest standing members.

I clearly remember MM, and I'm pretty sure I was a member of that site. Yet for some reason I have a 2004 OS join date. I always found that odd, and I can't really think of why that would be the case.

In any case, I've been around a really long time too.
