Two and a half years now? June 6, 2002 is when I joined . . . I think. I'm to lazy to check.
Whether or not you're a newb is based soley on you, I suppose. It's how you carry yourself around the board. I've seen people who have been here for months who I still consider a newb while at the same time I've seen a newb post in a thread after his 'entrance' thread and didn't think of them like a newb anymore. ^_^

I wish I were still a newbie, gives me an excuse to 'accidently' do wrong. -evil grin- =3
