I just turned 19 a couple months before I joined this forum.
Now, I turn 40 in less than one month.
(EDIT: Cool, raslebe joined three people before me... #191 to #194. The first 200 members. If the number in the username for the newest user in the user list is accurate, we're at the 198,628th member!)
Was 31 and unhappily married. Today i'm 52 and very happily single 😛 Hard to believe that both this forum and the internet itself has now been around that long! How time flies!
I started to become really active 2-3 years afterwards though, first among the French community, and then when I felt confident enough about my English ability, I jumped over the fence to the English-speaking sections.
I was mainly active in the Artwork sub-forum at first, but then I discovered the rest of the site was awesome too. Now I feel at home pretty much everywhere ^_^
