When was TBN started?

[RobS]

Yes but posts weren't wiped out, only subscribed threads. I think.

OK, good point. When I look at my post history it takes me back to 2004, showing only 5,000 of my ~7,000 posts. Not a biggie but as I will be spending more time at home in the coming weeks, thought I might do some reminiscing!

I used to post a lot more because we used to have a lot more issues. So I always was making "Here's what went wrong, here's what we fixed, keep an eye out!" posts and, for the most part, we got through it.

We used to have dial-up at home when we first started up in New York. VERY Fortunately for us, our office had cable modem access, which was all but unheard of back in the 90s.

We really do appreciate your thanks and kind words. We're really proud of TBN and the community that has stayed healthy and helpful for so many people!

If you missed it, we put together this feature celebrating TBN's 20 years online

I notice that numerous other forums use the same software, but they do not seem to handle photo posting, and some other features as well. Good job keeping TBN working well.

I have a Q: is this a full-time job for you and Muhammed, or do you have other businesses and/or jobs? I see that TBN does have employees.

This has been one of the best sites for me since I found it. Invaluable advice, seemingly lots of digital contacts (for all I know all the other postings are by robot )

March 21, 1998. I was a 14 year old home schooled high schooler and did indeed start the site from my bedroom.<snip>

It's just amazing what a 14 year old male will do in his bedroom when left alone!

When you got started you weren't but an hour and a half away in the Binghamton NY area!!!

Yeah! I even remember seeing your dealership when I was a kid! I should take a trip back up there next time I'm in NY.

My how time flies. Looks like I joined Sept 2000, and at the time didn't think at all about how early I was to join. I've had long spans of no involvement, but keep coming back.

Muhammed, congrats to you and your brother for creating such a lasting site.
