"Joined" data

[barfle]

I recently noticed that almost every poster on the BBB joined at either 1:01 AM or 2:01 AM. Now, I have been known to stay up that late doing silly things like posting on bulletin boards, but this seems a bit strange that sooooo many would be. Not to mention that I think I signed up on a Saturday afternoon after wondering if there was such a thing as beethoven.com.

I'm guessing that it's related to the time when the new software got ported over, but I never learned BB admin, so I could be all wet.

Yes, this happened when the new BB came up.

Looking at the member list, only members who joined prior to 24 April 2006 are listed this way, all subsequent members are listed at varying times, so I assume it is due to the changeover. I notice that the first member who didn't join is me, as Shapley H. I entered a new member name because I couldn't log on under the old one, though I never posted under that name. The problem, if I recall correctly, was that the passwords became case sensitive after the changeover, and I had to enter the password differently than I was accustomed to doing. Once I did so, I was able to recover my old login.

I am currently "alone" surrounded by "bots".
