Part 1 is here
Straggler's message 1 of part 1:
quote:
What was your first ever EVC post? Do you read it now and cringe with embarrassment? Do you read it now and feel the glow of self congratulatory consistency? Do you read it now and wonder when that once polite, reasonable and respectful person that you used to be became such a pompous self righteous arse?
This thread is intended as an opportunity for a bit of self-deprecating fun. Maybe some serious reflection if the mood so takes you. Especially if you have an EVC "journey" to tell.
I am particularly interested in the first/early posts of those regular members who have been posting for years. I am intrigued to see how those posters have developed over time and how they view their evolution here. But all are welcome. "Young" and "old".
Here is my first ever post Message 34. Rather boring if anything on reflection. Hopefully others will have better examples than I.
(Note: This thread isn't about debating the issues raised in linked to first posts. This thread is about people not points and as such is intended to be fairly uncontentious)
I think the topic theme is profound enough to want the quality on theme messages not be buried in other excessively frivolous messages. That is what I saw happening at the end of part 1.

Bump - Also see part 1 - Samples of the distant past
Somehow I happened to stumble upon the original topic, I thought this would be interesting (re)reading for the membership.
Part 1 is very interesting, but it totally fell apart at the end.
This part 2 never amounted to much.
