Default How did this start? Remember the BB? Y2K swap?

Just curious as to how and when the Quilting Board started? Anyone remember the Bulletin Board from years ago? The Y2K swap from the BB?

​To new to the QB band wagon to know how it started. Maybe one of the senior members will give us a brief history.

If you click on the Member List in the dark bar above, you get a list of every member. the column headings are clickable/sortable. click on Join Date and it first gives you the newest members. click on it again and it will give you the oldest members. other than the first admin, most of the join dates are 11/18/2006... so i'm assuming that's when the quiltingboard started.

I use to post on the BB years ago but under a different name. I know there are quiet of few oldies here that use to post on the board and most have different board names now.

I don't remember how long ago this Board started but the guy's name was Konsantine and he was from Delaware. Maybe 12 years?

I am now 72! Don' know how to add it to my siggy.

I joined in 2007.
It did a major change not to long ago, so it is different now. I liked it better before.
I have adjusted to the change.
Im 73 till next month so my memory is not as good as it used to be. Cant remember what the board was like before but do remember I did not like the change.
It was easier to post pictures then.
