Title: Our 10th birthday!
Post by: Clive on November 01, 2012, 23:57: I've unearthed some ancient manuscripts which show that PC-Pals was born exactly 10 years ago today. A lot of websites have come and gone during that time but we have survived to tell the tale! So.....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PC-PALS!!

Post by: chorleydave on November 02, 2012, 22:09: Ten years? OMG! When it started, I was on dial-up with Fast24 - a tenner a month for 200 hours connected. Broadband was so flaky at that time that when I finally took the plunge I was seriously considering "upgrading" back to dial=up. How things have changed!

Here's to the next 10! :clap:

Post by: Rodders on November 02, 2012, 22:22: Blimey, is it really ten years? Well, we may have passed a lot of water since then, but I confidently predict we'll still be here tomorrow (mind you, next week's looking iffy). Anyway, Happy 10th Birthday to my favourite bunch of froot-loops!

Post by: Baz on November 04, 2012, 21:54: is that some secret joke that only the original line up know about :dunno:
Title: Re: Our 10th birthday!
Post by: Simon on November 04, 2012, 22:08: Baz, there's bound to be stuff that people who weren't around at the beginning don't know about. It's a long history! ;) Adept and Bat69 were two of the original founders and Admins, but they left due to other commitments. When Adept stood down, we were lucky enough to get Sam, who took over the technical side of keeping the forum running. :)
