    Sounds like a good reply to me!

    Ok, here's one- the most bizarre or unlikely place you've ever accessed Mi6 Forums from before?

    For me, it would have to be stood on top of the O2 arena.

    My memory's a bit vague, but I think I might have done the same thing two years ago.

    Did you jump over the heads of any alligators while on this excursion, @Birdleson?

    I actually have had some crazy run ins with alligators, un-Bondlike, though.

    Well, you've yet to become food, so that's good.

    No, you're not alone. That's the way it is on my Chromebook and iPhone.

    No, you're not alone. That's the way it is on my Chromebook and iPhone.

    It was my start-up page on Safari, then on Chrome too when I made the switch. MI6C's front page is the first thing I see every day I wake up.
  • Voted. Am I the only one who considers his age like this: "I'm 33 so I'm FRWL Connery years old."

    Or am I just a damn weirdo? ;)

    I do that all the time in fact did it the other day :)) I am currently Sean Connery In DAF.
    I am, of course, PIERCE BROSNAN in GOLDENEYE

    I wouldn't go for anything less than the best, ha!
    When I retire I'll be Octopussy Moore years old!

    Here's one. Since joining, what is the longest amount of time you spent away from MI6 Community?

    Mine? A meal.
  • Roughly a year @jake24 as things are very quiet regarding cinematic Bond I am surprised I still come on as much though I work waking nights on occasion it helps kill time.

    Wow that brings back memories. Too bad the links don't work. I'm one of the early members of this site, can't remember whether I joined the old one but i definitely lurked there

    I joined at the perfect time, as if it was by design. I think the old KTBEU site was done in February of 2011, with the MI6 Community we now know of coming into life not long after. It was during July of that year that I found myself somehow stumbling upon this great site, and was driven to joining it after I'd spent the previous two years becoming heavily immersed in the Bond world and eager to share my perceptions on the character and his world.

    2011 was a year where many of the vets from KTBEU jumped ship and new members who I now count as fellow vets joined the nascent MI6C alongside me, so the climate was ripe with new discoveries as new and old faces came together to talk Bond. It's crazy it's been five years since I joined, but I don't regret the decision for a moment and hold this place and its members in the highest esteem. I've gotten educated on a lot beyond Bond here, have had my perceptions of many things positively impacted, and have shared some rousing discussions on any number of subjects that I still treasure in memory. But most of all I'm drawn back for the many great both old and new members I've made true friendships with here since I've joined, and that I've developed alongside as a Bond fan and human in general throughout the years.

    Long live MI6C. :)>-

    I joined in the run up to Skyfall's release in November 2012 stuck around for a couple of months afterwards and then I didn't log back in for about two or three years. But I finally started reposting in the lead up to Spectre. Usually I disappear for a while after the release but I've enjoyed the different threads particularly the reviews and quizzes during this last six months or so and I enjoy the 'James bond quote conversation'. I think I've gotten to know different posters on here and enjoy seeing the different points of view on the bond films. They're ever shifting. My top four will always be rock solid but I've even been able to appreciate different aspects of films I didn't before just by reading people's impassioned and often articulate championing of films I had dismissed. I've always enjoyed every bond film but I enjoy putting a critical eye over them all, even my favourites.

    I joined up in August of 2012 having been a lurker on the old site and one that then checked out this place on a regular basis and here I am four years on still KTBEU .
