Just The Facts...And Just Curious

I've been wondering this for a while, but I don't see the information posted anywhere, so maybe someone could help me.

I was just curious; when was Suicdiegirls officially launched? And, there is a member who has the longest-standing membership to Suicide Girls?

Every time I see the "Old Skool" tag, I wonder just how long some people have been here for...and for the life of me, I can't remember when exactly I signed up (although I have a rough idea)..

I know it doesn't matter in the slightest...I was just curious. So anyone who could help, that would be awesome. And if this is a "no-no" question, then I offer my sincerest apologies. Hope I don't kill any cats with this one...

i wasn't here for it, but various back-press state that it was launched on September 14, 2001.

ed: of course, Sean will point out that we shouldn't necessarily believe anything we read about the site...

Hmmm....Crazy cool. Thanks!

i remember talking about it one time... i know it was right around 9/11/2004, really bad timing.

now i'm curious... does anyone recall who the first member (i.e. non-staff, non-model) was?

Sept 14 2001, wow, my 22 birthday..

they're probably grey by now. i know they used to have numbers. i think that's super cool

that's weird, I thought I remembered hearing about it before that . . . funny how time flies.

ya I thought it was around longer then 2001 as well...but hey, what do I know

macbastard and sixsixty are both super ogs.

Wow...I never knew about the 9/11 thing...weeeird...

Another silly question...how can we (the "old skoolers", I mean) find out when we first signed up?

Wait, I remember you guys were around before then. Right?

I remember back in tha day when Mister Satan hit ten grand, and then somthing happened to the comment counters right after, and then he had to hit ten again, it was great ...but I ain't old skool yet?

sorry, you missed it by about a year.

Yeah, that was Maxx's handiwork to ensure that my 10,000th post would go to him, the slippery shit.

As far as the oldest member, wasn't PrintGod like, member #12 or something?

*points and laughs

I find it odd that anyone would find a correlation between the two...

i imagine freckle was thinking more along the lines of anais .. pointing out that it seemed really odd to be looking at sg only four days after 9/11, when most people were still in shock and glued to 24 hour news.

there was a rumor that the site intended to launch on 9/11 but postponed it by a few days because of the terrorism attacks. s5's post refutes this rumor.

hey, i think a lot of people were ready for escapism by that point... a little less of the "real" world...

I thank Nerve everyday for pointing me to this site, I've never joined anything faster in my life...

Thanks for the info, everybody!
