Checking if u got my case (Clock'd 0Ne)

What case? who knows

I have no idea what this might have been  But there are some great names there that it would be good to have back posting here again.

In August 2002 I had around 5100 posts, I dread to think how many total posts I've accumulated over the life of the various forum incarnations, probably a scarily high figure.

I joined in 2002 just before the switch to bigforums If i remember correctly.

Yep after some digging I found an old post of mine with a 14/08/2002 join date. Nearly 10 years.

I remember at one point a group of us had 10k plus i believe!

Well the people have found it should stay, stick around. Get others back on here. Things are really going to go places next year. Wait till you a logo.

it was tek long before bigforums wasnt it? it was only renamed when sam wanted to split the board from his shop

Yes, it was tekforums.co.uk, then bigforums.co.uk, then tekforums.co.uk:81, then tekforum.co.uk (aka "we lost the s") and now tekforums.net

Argh stop posting wayback machine links - I lose hours of my life everytime!!!

Who was the guy who had the Citroen BX GTi 16? That car was apparently quicker than any other car ever made iirc...

I've just found at thread I started in 2002 about using vegetable oil to increase engine performance. I have absolutely no memory of that, I'm not sure I even know anything about vegetable oil

It became Bigforums in August 2002 around the time I joined, as I remember finding this place a few months before when it was still Tekforums, and then when I came to register my account it had just changed its name.

F...ck a decade ago !!! hard to remember exactly
