19 years in September for me - and I believe this is the first time I've ever posted in the Basses subforum

The RRF definitely is a unique place that has much longer membership than any other forum I've ever seen. Thankful to spend the last 13+ years here with all of you, and plenty of real-life friendships via this site as well (so cheers, Peter).

12 years now for me. Didn’t contribute that much but still pay a visit almost every day to check new threads and posts.
You find so much knowledge here and always a helping hand. Wanna say a big THANK YOU! to all of you.

Happy 20th birthday to the RRF!
I joined in 2007.
Thanks to Peter for creating the RRF, to Joey and Dale for making me aware of and inviting me to join, and thanks to everyone who’s been a good forum friend… Which is pretty much everyone here.
Being part of this form and making the friends I have here has incalculably enriched my life, for which I am grateful.

Happy 20 Years, RRF! In late November, I'll have been aware of this site for 13 years. Thanks to all the people who I've made friends with over the years, and all the fun I've had at the SoCal meetups I attended back in the day. These days, I've got three Rics in my stable.
Although I don't post like I used to 1/64th of the amount that I did up to five years ago, I still check in every now and then, as there is a treasure trove of wonderful and knowledgeable information about some of the finest electric guitars out there.

Being comparatively new to the forum, I enjoy it very much. If I should write something every time I checked in here, I would have reached 1000+ posts by now, or even more.

First registration was Aug. 2000. Been quietly lurking in the corner for the past 20 years. Peter was kind enough to dig through 20 years of info to get my login info straightened out because it appears I forgot to remember it.

I wasn't really sure where to post the survey, but, since I spend most of my RRF time here in the Bass section I decided that's where I'd post it.
Thanks for responding and everyone else as well, it's nice to see so many members again

It’s crazy to think it’s been that long. April was 18 years for me! I still enjoy this site.
Thanks Peter and to all the RRF members!
Cheers and congrats!

Happy birthday RRF!
I joined in 2008, but was a "lurker" for a number of years before. I was even on alt.guitars.rickenbacker WAY back when...

My first post on the RRF was 11/25/00. However, I had been on the Alt.Guitar.Rickenbacker for a few years before the RRF was created.

Apparently I'm a newbie to the site. Less than six years. But I've been playing Ric basses since the 70s!
