The first thread on PF, also known as the "First Post", was created to serve as a place for new members to introduce themselves and get familiar with the forum community. This thread also serves as a way for veteran members to welcome and offer assistance to new members.
The first thread on PF was started by the forum's founder, Greg Bernhardt, on August 7, 2003. He posted a simple introduction and invited others to join in and start discussions on various topics related to physics.
In the first thread on PF, members introduced themselves and shared their interests in physics and mathematics. They also discussed various topics such as current events in the field, their favorite physics books, and their experiences with studying and working in the field.
As of September 2021, there are over 1,500 posts in the first thread on PF. This includes introductions from new members, responses from veteran members, and ongoing discussions on various topics related to physics and mathematics.
Yes, new members are welcome to post in the first thread on PF. It is a great way to introduce yourself and get to know other members of the forum. However, it is recommended to also explore and participate in other threads and discussions on the forum to fully engage with the community.
