the longest running member?

[Jack]

hello all,
does anyone here know who is the longest running member on here,
or in fact the person that started up the forum? are they still a member.
What was the jref forum originally designed for?


Just a few facts that might be interesting to know?

At that time - aeons ago - I used a different, less sophisticated forum script written in Perl. The Japan Forum was ported over to vBulletin in March 2002. Peter (aka Twisted - the man in the corner) is one of the earliest members still active.

Ah, nostalgia...
