I count myself as a cross over member. I joined nearly three years ago. I've seen some great members like Danbri, Darren, Newcaste Night,Cruza driva, GU Rich, deano, etc go missing. folks need to know what a great hereditary this place has, when I joined it had just over 6000 members. Now, 13000 plus.. This is why some have moved on.
Its ok Mace I'm still here and check in almost daily and have been here since the very early days. I think I was member #247.
Yes some have moved on from the early days and I think those members really helped shape the forum for what it is today. I have made some great friends and still are in contact with.
I may not post as much as I use to but still getaway a lot having not long returned from an Outback QLD trip starting from Melbourne-Goldy-Longreach-Winton-Jundah-Windorah-Quilpie-Nocundara-Tibooburra-Cameron Corner and home.
Plus all the other trips inbetween

Cheers Cruza
