Here's a new one...

[Shipwreck]

How did each of you come to hear about TRN? In other words how did you find this site and what made you want to stay? I'm sure this would be good info for Gilles...

As for me? I was researching for my books when I stumbled across it in a search engine. Google.com if I'm not mistaken. That was sometime ago. I have enjoyed returning ever since. Now, what about you?

[Trevor G]

indyfan had a link I believe... or some other indy site... I checked it out for Art refrence photos, and I stumbled onto an awesome forum :) that's the story of Trev

"Ahem...A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...

I owed money to some casino mob boss named Jabba...he's such a big worm!!! Anyway, after ducking and dodging him the last few months, I stumbled upon a portal that lead to a different timeline...1930s." :D

[Aaron H]

Well let's see...I was on TheForce.net and I saw a link button to Indy20.com so I said this sounds cool I've always liked Indiana Jones. So I went there and got really excited about the Indy films again. On the link page there I saw TheRaider.Net...well that sounded even cooler. I came to the main TRN page (I belive it was during the Halloween look...that was cool too).
I clicked on every link that was there...expect for the Raven. I thought it sounded too odd...but soon my curiosity got the better of me. I saw real fans talking about the one main thing they have in common, so I decided to join in the fun! I was known then as The Raider, I'm sure I confused alot of people:). The about a month or so after I joined Gilles made a comment about Jawad & Paul almost never coming around any more, so I offered to help him. I changed my handle & the rest is history.:D

Wow I sure typed alot of words!

Ask.com

;)

[Zharah]

I was looking for Indy pictures and found The Raider...plus, Ameera told me how great it is here, so I decided to come and see for myself.

[tall square]

Well, I had only heard of indyfan, so I was looking around for another place (i.e. "Indiana Jones" at google), and lo and behold, I found TR.N. What made me stay? Well, besides the fact that it had the best layout of any site I'd seen, and everything I could hope for in an Indy site, this forum is great! Tons of great people to talk with! What more could I ask for?

[G_Knotti]

My roommate...he's registered here, too!!:)

[Tessa]

I used to work with Gilles on the other site he had (I don't remember if it was named The Raider.net or not). I left to deal with personal problems and when I came back, Gilles told me about this site through one of our ICQ conversations and here I am.

[thefumegator]

Well, I was on a search for pictures from the movies that I could draw from. Indyfan was alright, but didn't have a lot of Screens, and less fan-art. So, I kept looking. I found this site (and it's hordes of pics :D ) and I fell in love. I made my way throught the links, and found the Raven, where I read the conversations for probably 3 months before I actually registered... I should've done it sooner!

[Finn]

I was on my first takeover to the IM, and I found out about TRN as a link from a site called infernalmachine.net. That site is long gone, but TheRaider´s alive!

[DutchIndy]

I found it myself a couple of years ago. I went to theRaven since I had my ADSL connection.

[Finn]

Dutch... TR.N is only 1 ½ years old...

[DutchIndy]

Maybe I'm mixing it up with another site then.
Oh yeah!
indyjones.simplenet.com or something like that. After that one was gone I found this one. Or so I believe.

Sorry Finn, my mistake....

[Finn]

Right. That´s OK.

[DutchIndy]

Well I'm happy eith that...

[Finn]

It happens. ;)

[00Kevin]

a few years back I searched Indiana jones on Yahoo and I came up with Indy jones cronicals and theraider.net

[xerxes]

Hi..I just joined recently, even though I've known this site about a year or so....New layout looks great..:) How'd I find it? Dunno, search engine, I reckon...

[Indyz Azn Gurl]

Welcome xerxes!!! :D
Enjoy your stay!!

[HovitosKing]

I came here by way of a link on Indyfan.com, and had already heard a lot about this place on the Indy-Web forum. I stayed because this site is the most complete and accurate Indiana Jones website on the net, and I feel very much at home.

[monkey]

How did I find this site?

Actually I was trying to look for the Oakland Raiders'web page when I stumbled across this.

No not really (though I am a Raider fan).

Actually I just typed "Indiana Jones" into Google one day and TRN was there.

When I found that the 'Raven' was visited by so many creative minded and intelligent people I decided to join in

(which is kind of odd since I'm rather stupid and dull).

[Nina]

i got here today...
i saw the link when i surfed at the theraider.net-page...
i´m glad to be landed here and i´ll come backe surely!

[Shipwreck]

don't be so hard on yourself. You're not stupid... dull, maybe, but not stupid. A drag, sure. No sense of humor, either. Always working members up into frenzies. You talk too much and frankly, you also scare us. I think your a pervert and should never return.

:D

:p

As Kojak would say, "Who loves ya baby!"

Hahahahaha!!

Ditto, on what Shipwreck said Monkey! May God have mercy on your soul! J/K! :D

[Col. Musgrove]

Indyfan.com gave a link when TR.N first came online. I've been coming here ever since.

[Stoney]

I was talking to Rept about Indy on the Manics forum in December, and she gave me the link. I haven't been for a while, but I should be around more often during the next few weeks.

Tessa, that other site it's name was "Indy's Excavations". And it's through that site that I have met Jawad... with TheRaider.net as result.

BTW: Does anyone remember "Indy's Excavations"?

Eeek! OK, I'm Rept from the MSP forum, but who are you? PaintNothing? :confused:

And while I'm here, I found TRN through a search page... ntl I think...

[H. Jones Jnr]

I think I found this site through http://www.theforcenet.com. I was purposely looking for a Indy site..... just didn't realize there was this much interest still.

Oh yeah, I've seriously gotta get one of those mad-as-a-table sigs like Wests. :)

[westford]

Mad as a table???? :confused: If you say so... :D:D:D

edit: changed signature now, so it's official!!! :D

I'm Nostalgic Pisshead, aka Welsh-boy Addie. Sorry, should have said so! Am offended that you thought I was Paint... :p

[westford]

LOL Addie! :D I'm gonna tell Paint that next time I see him at MSPF... Mwah hah hah! Nice to see you here!

[Kumba]

Hey Westford, I think you are drunk. As you damn well know this sight is alcohol and drug free. So sober up, or get loaded with Marion.

And you keep your mouth shut. She can be drunk as long as she doesn´t disturb over 50 % of patrons... :p

[westford]

I haven't touched a drop of alcohol in 20 days! The drugs though, that's another matter...

A B C D E ;) (7 years today, can you believe that?! I'll be at the MSP forum later - see you there I expect...)

[00Kevin]

well, I'ld like to find out some of you guys from 2002 and 2003 found your way here

[vaxer]

I found TheRaider.net right when it started from a link at Indyfan.com, but I didn't go to the Raven until 2002.

[Vogel]

I saw the link once at http://www.emperorstomb.com

Monkey, don't you dare say that about yourself! You are certainly not stupid and dull. In fact you are one of the most intelligent people here <small>and I'm not just saying that because of the nice e-mail that you sent me.</small> :D

How did I find out about The Raven? I have been an Indy fan for many years, and when I finally managed to get the internet I began looking up Indy websites and stumbled across this messageboard. I first logged on here in October 2002 which was around about the time that I had just finished my first novel which went on The Raider net and then I began to post here. :D

Hmm, someone needs to watch the movies again.

...Unless that was chocolate milk they were passing out on..

[Webley]

Well I was looking for pictures of Indiana Jones and started working my way down the list and came here but it took me some time to join, I gest watched for a while.

[intergamer]

I took a link from TFN, and I stayed at first because I thought it was a sister site to TFN, and then because its more interesting than TFN.

[Ryan243]

I was looking for pictures of Alison Doody. I did a Google search. I don't remember if this site came up or if I found a link to it on a site that I went to, but somehow I found this site that day. I came across a thread that asked Best Indy Lady? (http://www.theraider.net/theraven/showthread.php?threadid=5399), so I had reply and say ELSA!

I've come here every day since.
