Who are the long-time mentors at PF celebrating 9 years of dedication?

  • Thread starter dlgoff
  • Start date
In summary, the conversation celebrates the 9th year of some mentors at PF and thanks them for their dedication. There is some friendly banter and nostalgia about past events on the forum. One user mentions that he has been a member since 2001, but his registration date was reset in 2003. Another expresses gratitude for the mentors' efforts and a mentor jokingly mentions that the user's time on the forum doesn't count. The conversation ends with a mentor acknowledging that only a small fraction of his time on the forum has been as a mentor.

Remember that time that you made yourself some chili con carne? You caused the dinosaurs to go extinct. Nothing to be jealous off...

Actually, I think I am coming up on my 11th year. I registered in Dec 2001. That does not reflect in the dates currently shown as everything was reset in '03.

Two years, but my post count is well over some "other" members who have been here much longer. I should get the "get a life" PF club card. Free bag of chips for every 500 posts

By the way, I'll have you know Evo never rode that dinosaur. She actually helped stir the goo at the time of abiogenesis. They found her spoon last week, along with her AARP card that she already had at the time.

Ah but I have allergies and will sneeze at anything. And only a small fraction of my time here has been as mentor.
