'Joined' Date in Forum

#1 Post by thdfrance » Wed Oct 03, 2018 7:06 pm

I just returned to the site from a longgg break and I was wondering what the joined date that appears below every ones name in the forum is? It doesn't appear to correspond with the date that people first used the site.

I think mine is the day that I first posted in the new forum.

I would think that too, but I haven't posted before today on the new forum and mine says June 8th...

After this new forum was built, at some point we created an account for everyone. That probably happened on June 8th.

Actually, on second thought, that seems unlikely since mine says October 3th 2017. So I don't know.

I believe this is correct. Anyone who "joined" before then was using the forum by choice while we tested it.

I would like to counter ghug's point by my case. I joined the forum by accident, I think. I just went on the forum and my account was there, voilá. Would love to be proven wrong however.

Magnetic24's experience seems to align with my own.

I joined several years ago, and even posted in the forum back then. I later disappeared for 4 years, and came back in August of this year, but didn't post in the forum until today. However, my "joined" date seems to be dated to August.

I’ve seen a few posts from people who left a few years ago and are just coming back now. Wonder why that is

If I remember correctly, once they opened the new forum to the "public," the only thing you had to do to join the new forum was to visit the new forum.

Why didn't you sign up for webDip Valentine? I found a great date, until he cheated on me.

Why did the Romans have only one Date? Because apparently, it was enough Forum.
