BAF and I were just talking about our early posts. personally, I'm ashamed of my typing, though it's a lot better than most newbies.

I found this gem, but I also like this one and this one. Well, I wasn't very noobish, so I'll let BAF post his plethora of antics. 1337sauce highschooler.

But yeah, this is a "post your first post" thread.

I believe this was my first post.

Some other stuff I found amusing enough to send to CGames:

And also that thread I made about making an OS out OF Allegro. I'll find that (I have it bookmarked someplace, I think) and post that later.

Well, considering I was new to forums in general, I imagine I have several "oops," not knowing proper forum etiquette (if there is such a thing).

First Post
Second Post

Both of those posts were back when I thought I was someone special, thank goodness a.cc desensitized me.

And then, of course, my monday thread. Although, this is one of those ideas I never let go of, just haven't figured how to go at it. Someday, I'll make it a tuesday thread (seemingly a monday thread, but manages to make it to the next day).

SimRPG

Also, there was that thread where I made a fool of myself, trying to speak intelligently where Inphernic slammed me continuously.

Ah, nostalgia.

I believe that's my first post. I sound surprisingly similar. Pretty good for a 15 year old, no?

Haha, I was pretty stupid. :P

Is this it? It's the earliest post I could find for you at least.

I still like my first post on the DJGPP newsgroups when I couldn't call load_bitmap() with anything even approaching proper syntax. Ah, the good old days ...

I think this post is my first one. (I'm still ashamed of it, but I have myself under control these days so the silly thoughts in my head have become less and on the rare occasion that they do take form there, I usually don't allow them to make their way into written text.(At least that's what I like to think. I could possibly be proven wrong on that.))
Gabhongas' response was quite funny though.:)

I don't remember my first post, but the first off-topic one was here: http://www.allegro.cc/forums/thread/187980. It's the 2002 World Cup thread!

I think I might have also posted way back on the old a.cc in 1998 or something like that. Or maybe I was just a lurker then. Heh, I don't even remember anymore if there even was a forum before this one. I just remember there was some nice allegro page, then it disapeared for a while and then this popped up :-/

I don't know what my first post is, but I do not they showed an abundance of noob and lack of confidence in my abilities. Then I was the apprentice, but now I am the master! Mwahahaha!! ;D

The scary thing is, I actually remember reading that thread...

I remember reading that too at the time. Scary stuff.

The Allegro Game Depot. I don't think it had a forum; I certainly don't remember seeing one.

I've been a a.cc member for less than a year so it was pretty easy to find my first post. Back then I had no clue how to use mockup code, but thats pretty much it, can't say I'm ashamed of my first post in any way 8-)

This is my third account on a.cc, and I can't for the life of me remember what name I used the first time around. It would have been in 2000 or possibly earlier, as I still have printed copies of the Allegro manual dating back to 1998.

I believe this one is the first post I made here. Unfortunately I didn't get so far to include those on-demand rendered models to my engine.

This one is also quite nice.

I even got credits in one of those threads. Which is kind of surprising, considering that I didn't use capitalization properly :P.

Much more embarrassing was my first ever news post. I tried to find the log of Matthew quoting it on IRC for me, but I couldn't. :'( However, it was something along the lines of,

What's weird is, that post is dated April 2001, yet above your avatar, it says you joined in July 2003. What's up with that?

[edit]
This was probably one of my worst threads. And I can still remember it too (the OS thread).
