    Just off the top of your head Ken, how many were there that joined that first day and are still here?
    You, Yvonne, myself and maybe @Joe Riley ?
    Just curious…

    I don't think I have that information in one place. I'd have to look at member profiles individually.

    No need. I just thought you polished all the 8 year trophies by yourself and knew. Again, it’s just a curiosity thing and nothing that’s going to keep me awake tonight.

    Anyone who has received an 8-year trophy should feel free to self-identify.

    We actually still have several people here who joined in 2015, at some point during the year. Look on the top members list at the join dates and you can see who joined then and who is still around.
    We had others who came in at the beginning who have since left, or passed on (like Ina), and actually most of the early joiners are still here that can be here.

    Here is how it looks on my ipad, so another device should be similar. Right at the top, you have the choice of forums and members, and when you click on members, it shows the most active ones in several categories.
    Then, if you click on each person, it says when they joined the forum.
    If there are birthdays that day, it also shows that on the right side above where the new members avatars are at.

    Ok, thanks! I knew about that but a lot of the early joiners that are still active but don't post much don't show there.

    Quite likely, few people had any way of knowing about it immediately after it went online, so the early joiners may be getting their 8-year trophies pretty soon now. I think I set the site up and spent some time feeling my way around before others joined, except for a few who were members of another senior forum that I was a member of.

    Louise Williams and Louise M are the same member she had to rejoin long ago due to tech issues trying to log onto her account
    Apart from that only one not here @Faye Fox it was my dear friend Louise who invited me in 2015 from another forum that I gladly deserted.
    I’ve been here 7 years …..so it looks like I’ll have to wait till Dec to get my 8 year trophy
