Jon Merricks Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Unfortunately you will never see it. The early forum crashed and we had to start over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Unfortunately you will never see it. The early forum crashed and we had to start over. But I'd be willing to bet SOMEBODY knows who posted it and what it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Nesbitt Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Unfortunately you will never see it. The early forum crashed and we had to start over. But I'd be willing to bet SOMEBODY knows who posted it and what it was. It was Flex telling someone to do a search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrumpyOne Posted August 22, 2011 Author Share Posted August 22, 2011 I mean, I can find posts all the way back to 2001, but which was the first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Keen Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Like Jon said, the forum has had at least 2 or 3 crashes over the years. My guess is, it was Benos, and the post was ''Test''. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrumpyOne Posted August 22, 2011 Author Share Posted August 22, 2011 (edited) Alright then, oldest post that can be found then.... If I can find posts all the way back to 2001, that's when Brian joined the forum, so there has to be a first still out there.

warpspeed Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 The oldest I can find is May 2, 2001 : http://www.brianenos.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=1924 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Nesbitt Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 History as I remember it. There was a BE forum that crashed around or before May 1, 2001. Notice the join dates of everybody in the link that warpspeed posted. May 1 & 2 2001. This was the new forum. I think everything before that was lost. I couldn't find any of my older posts. I was originally signed up as "BILL". That profile shows me as joining on May 2, 2001. In 2003 there was an update and the person signed up as "Bill" ended up with the name and I had to sign up with another name. BE forums were so good that I used my real name.

Flexmoney Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 It was Flex telling someone to do a search. Not back then... http://www.brianenos.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=2626&hl=linkmeister&st=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
