Hi all as the title suggests, and no cheating mind cos we can check (god bless the search function).

I thought mines was a stupid post about a photo i thought was brill at the time, i posted it up on the photo section and got slated, lol. Turns out they were all right, im now hooked on photography, anyways thats not what this thread is about...

My first ever post on boards was to ask for help RE connecting a laptop to a TV, http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=59112456&postcount=1 i know its not a great post but im sure there are some great first posts out there, bound to ne some noob posts and some crackingly whitty ones too, and post a link to the post/thread to please....

P.S. im sure you dont need telling but to find your first post click search, then advanced, put in your username where it asks to search by username, and select 1 month before your join date in the date range and select and before from the dropdown menu then....:)

I only started in AH in dec at which time I had under 50 posts and look at me now!

Einhard

I was trying to remember the name of that beardy giuy who used to do that programme on RTE where he'd chug down the rivers of Ireland in a barge type thing and make comments on otters and like. Turned out his name was Dick Warner. And he wasn't dead which was a nice surprise. And I realised that Wikipedia has n0thing on boards for answers to random questions!!










Speaing of random questions, anyone have a a cure for hangover. I, err, know a friend who might need it in the morning...

My first post was a pretty tepid attempt almost five years ago:
http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=3166541
An introductory post in the newbies/faq/introduction.
Now, looking back, I wish it had been more groundbreaking but what can you do.
I remember when I joined the site I was just after finishing a job I had only been in for a couple of months, was pretty down about it but finding boards more than made up for it, only wish I had found it earlier. It's been a great resource both in the serious sense and also as a place for having a bit of craic.

My first was in the Hip Hop forum.
Lord I'm ashamed of my picks.:o

My first post was 'done' It was a vote for the golden spider or something like that. Whats interesting is a comment Dev made:

Trojan, there isnt a page with a vote count. At least not in the open. Nice transparency.

Mail me and I'll tell you the score http://www.boards.ie/bulletin/smile.gif

Currently we are up near 70 votes with the next nearest at 14.

DeV.

70 voters at that stage and most were quakers, makes me wonder if Boards would have ever existed if it wasnt for Quake!

Yeah you should see others of my first post, doubt you would understand them. It was funny then the turn around to modding a grammar forum...

You think you won't like it but when I teach somebody they don't want to stop and they hog my computer. All the little guys and dolls that hang out in our house ask me to play so they can watch

My first post on previous ac informed BlitzKrieg that his joke in teh humour forum was gay.

You can also go to advanced search and search for posts by a username and set it to show the results in ascending order instead of descending order. You will see the first 500 user posts instead of the most recent 500 user posts.

At least one English accent is essential for any criminal gang, but I could always do an Italian one

Also, the innocent facade of a 15 year old wouldn't hurt to have




Actually, are us english even allowed on here?

But concise.. I managed to slip in my age and nationality in the first post :cool:

Mine was about a darts practise routine.

I said (round the time the o'donoghue expenses came out) that the greens would back out of government by the following Monday, and that we would have a general election at the end of October.

I was wrong!!!
