Joined SPS pre ‘08 but I’m only 19.83% sure of the exact year.
oh yeahThose of us on the old Dawgnews listserv that Gene was on too in the mid-90's were asked to beta test his page in the fall of '96 (before he went loco), if I remember correctly. I had just graduated from State at the time.

Long enough to know who Derek Dunn isI started on genespage in the fall of 1998.
Same here!When did GenesPage originate?
Whenever that was.
2 Season football tickets and a parking pass. I also had the Facebook handle Facebook.com/hailstate. Years later, Rhett Hobart offered me a signed Bobbie Dixon football, and I was like nah, season tickets and 1 field pass. So, I got to see Dak light up Kentucky from the sidelines. That was great.I used to follow you on Twitter back then. Did you get a good deal when the university came to you to buy it?
Smart man.Joined SPS around 2004. It is the only message board I follow.
As did I. Good times**** Still wonder what happened to Pong Dawg. My nemesis.I started on genespage in the fall of 1998.
Started SPS in April of 2003 (I blv) after I was restricted from the Sheep FarmI started on genespage in the fall of 1998.
I 'member that. Those days you could converse/post with a Rebel. Actually, have a civil conversation.Don't remember the year, but it was mid-late 1990s on Gene's Page. Also was on the short-lived IBBC (Internet Bulldog Boosters Club) in the 1990s-maybe early 2000s.

Yeah, proud wasn’t the right word. I guess “satisfied***” consumer of the Wardlaw Lifetime of…what, 7 months?That's not exactly an exclusive list.
I never took my name off, but the last message I got, though, was in 2019. Just sent a test email.Same. I think I'm still on it.
There were flyers?
I was going to say GP in 97 or 98, but I was definitely on that Dawgnews list. Maybe not as early as 1994, but maybe. I was in Jackson in school when I started on Dawgnews, and I started there in 1993. I used Mosaic before I used Netscape.I was on the MSSTATE.EDU Dawgnews list, the old school message board, back in '94.
I think you say I joined SPS in 2008. You were my first.I started on genespage in the fall of 1998.
I was pleasantly surprised to see those emails come through. I am glad I still have that email account.DAWGNEWS LIVES!
