Your first ever post
« on: May 23, 2007, 07:18:29 PM »
Do you remember your first ever post on amiga.org? I just found mine (under an old account) and the questions I asked were cringeworthy. The kind of questions I sometimes sigh over now - "how do I get a CD-ROM mounted? How do I format a hard drive? My A1200 pauses for a long time when I turn it on, is this normal?". I suppose we all start somewhere :-)

My first post

I had an A1200 up and running and messed up the harddisk. That is it went doing unpleasant things..... So this was the place I ran to in a panic.

Edit: Strangely I signed up somewhat sooner. But this is the oldest I could find and have some fainted memory of. Oh, well maybe I tinkered on my own before crying for help.
Regards,
Erno

Unfortunately, yes. If I recall clearly, it was a question regarding bizzare behaviour of C++ exceptions in multithreaded code under StormC - the mechanism was not threadsafe it turned out (was obvious from the problem really). At least I think that was it.

God, I'm a sad git!

My first ever post was a screenshot (and like all my posts, was posted using an Amiga 500). Surprisingly, that (embarrassingly old) screenshot is back to #1 in the Top 10. Not that it matters - the Top 10 is now meaningless thanks to some immature loser trashing all the ratings.

I think it's about time for my last ever post.

mine

I'm sure I must have had a previuos account, because I owned a b1230iv long before I got hold of a 1240.

Looking at the subsequent posts, it all seems like a few weeks ago. God, time flies.

I seem to remember back then that Framiga was very active in advising on hardware issues, don't seem to see him about here as much these days.

Mine.

I'm guessing that this was after I rejoined as I'm sure that I had posted something else earlier than this.  It matches my post count, so it must be the first one for this username.

I feel a bit noobish anyhow, as the post is OT in reply to an OT post... thankfully Karlos coconspired or I'd pack my bags and delete my account right now... :-D

Obviously I'd recently seen 'The Matrix'...

I've been lurking here for quiet a long time, before deciding to create an account and post something. Here's my 1st post.

Many threads don't exist any more... What happened to them? Changed name or lost forever?
