I remember those well! Kinda makes me feel old

I do know, that even with all my name changes, I was member like 700 or something like that, from back in the day. Early 99 or 2000. It's truly amazing to see how the site has evolved into what it is today.

Great job to everyone for making it like that

I remember when the virtual gathering used to be yellow and was these really long pages!

I've only been on for a year this month, but my favorite memory so far has to be the live chat during the Webcast of Red Earth powwow. That was a lot of fun - some great dancing, singing and really, really enjoyable joking and conversation. Lots of great people that I've met here - I'm kinda lost without my daily (many times daily, actually) fix of pw.com.

Who remembers this version of the forums:

That is actually the 2nd version of the forums. I first used a site called BeSeen for the forums, then moved to UBB, then to vBulletin.

Here it is! I found a link to the first version of our forum!

That is definetly one of our best memories only from the other side we were there (myself,ndnkidz and ok24stacey) doing the chatting
Everybody that was chatting kept asking who is that laughing all the time and we kept saying thats ndnkidz!!!
We had a blast doing the webcast with Paul and have already volunteered for next Red Earth!!!

Yah, I remember that bulletin board. It all seemed so easy to use then. Simple. Now this website is so huge and has so many kinds of features. I liked the old days when we chatted more and laughed more. Not sure I like all this video stuff and personal pages on Face Book, My Space, etc. I took mine down after I got spammed. Someone was using mine and my friends' usernames to send porn videos. That was just too much.

I prefer the "KISS" method in most things -- you know, Keep It Simple, Stupid!" Maybe I'm showing my age, huh.

I still love the calendar and the forums. Keep up the good work u guys.
