SG is 23yo today

Post by **Philip** » Thu May 05, 2022 3:05 pm

5/5/1999 is when I registered the speedguide.net domain, and pretty much that's when I got serious about developing the content on the site, when this journey got real for me. It's always been about helping broadband users, and still is.

I'd just like to say thanks to every single one of you who's been part of the site and the forums!

Cheers.

Hehe, wow, you're right, you've been around a couple of those years.

Happy Birthday SG!

No need to thank me. I feel it's just part of my DNA.

Prey521 and his naked mother-in-law, Brent and how he enjoyed the smell of his own farts...I've been here.

Sometimes I'll read through the posts in the General Achive's section at the bottom of the main forum page. It can bring back some sad and great memories.

Cheers, my friend!

And let's not forget the time Immy forced us all to unwittingly download a pic of his naked arse onto our computers. DAMN YOU, HTML!!

Also, I agree on the great community. I would frequently refer to this as my "internet home".

Phil... a mountain of appreciation from me/us for the platform you created.

Seconded, indeed.

Thanks for the kind words guys! Just doing my part to keep it up. The platform may be aging a bit, but I'm reluctant to change it into one of those phone sites. Cheers.

Holy smokes.... 23 years! I came here almost 22 years ago. What a hoppin' place it was! Still pop in now and again to poke around. Congrats!

23 years later not as much partying less posts and peeps however SG is a lot like a beautiful old home with great neighbors.

Post by **Philip** » Sun May 22, 2022 10:35 am

I don't know, I'm still not sure about those rodents in the attic though

It's honestly nice to just come back here and read, see who is still around. Might be on the fringes but y'all are fantastic folks and I'm glad to have - literally - grown up with you all.

SG guided me in building my first computer and anything tech. Thanks for everything and maybe another 23 years!

That story is still online somewhere.

Congrats to SG… to have members as old as Humboldt.
