You said it, Collin !! :D

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.

You said it, Paulie ! ! :D

June 2006 when I joined, so just over 14 years as a member (although I had a gap of several years when I didn't visit much). Undeniably the best place to come for reliable first-hand information and opinion on my favourite instruments. Happy 20th birthday, RRF! :)

Hello Peter and everyone,

Wow! has it been that long?
Congratulations! and admiration of you. You've done a sterling job since the days of alt.guitar.rickenbacker , remember that? anyone?
I call in & check the boards still occasionaly. I had a whole collection of Ricks at one stage. Now I only have old DK left now.

Congrats again and here's to another 20

Gerry :D

I must say, it is a bit scary being the only respondent to this poll that is here for less than 4 years 8)

I think the formation of the Facebook group has meant less new folks here in recent years, the rest of us either:
  • Are not (never will be) Facebook members
    Are older than Facebook, and in some cases:
    Older than the Internet
This is still a great place to discuss, share and research anything Rickenbacker.

I'm on facebook, but this seems to me a better place for in depth discussions.
