As one who has been here almost since day one...let me be the first to thank you Andy for your vision and express my gratitude to all the folks behind the scenes that have kept the community alive and well! Where would all us airstreamers be without AirForums!?

ONLY 10 years old?? For the amount of info available here I would have thought it was much older. Without AF, I would be completely isolated from most A/S help, company, and socializing: an A/S island in a sea of SOBs!!

Thanks, AirForum!!

Wow, I joined back in June of 2002. "Time is fun when your having flies!"

Amazing amounts of info and great people. The trailers are OK as well.

Happy Birthday Airforums!

Thank you Airforums! I'm glad this doesn't mean you are one year closer to death (since you are an immortal internet robot, as opposed to a meatbag like me).

Tell me about it! AirForums didn't exist when we started our first restoration!!!

Things were much different then...every little aspect of our project was "really big and scary" because we felt all alone in the restoration world - doing things in a vacuum of our own experience - which was zero! If you look back at some of the early posts from 2002 it's amazing to see how simple the questions were back then. The entire community's knowledge base has grown exponentially!

Thanks to everyone for sharing their experiences ~ good, bad & ugly!

Shari

Not only that, but Airforums is ranked 145000 globally on Alexa page ranks, which is a lot better than it sounds considering how many sites there are on this web...

Andy, do you have any trends you can show us on the user traffic, members, discussions, etc on a yearly basis since creation? It would be really cool to see the site's growth.
