Hi!

How did you get to be here? On this forum?

After I finished reading Under the Dome I had some things I wanted to discuss. I Googled Stephen King and this site came up. I clicked on it, went to the message board read a few threads/posts and I was hooked! Signed up as a member as voila! Here I am.

So, tell us. How did you come to be here?

Thank you.

Peace.

I can't 'bemember' :m_dizzy: but I know it was in May 2012 - I love it here!
(it was probably right after I heard about 11/22/63 I think :m_whatwhat:- that got me reading SK again and I had a lot of catching up to do, it turned out).

I've been reading Mr. King's works since 1982, came across this site back in 2011 while looking for the a character's name in one of Mr. King's books. Saw this site when I Googled Stephen King, and found a board of very cool people. Always kind of felt off on my own as an S.K. fan but here I seem to fit in, even with my questionable spelling skills and long, rambling, incoherent narratives I pour out. You'll rock.

Am not completely sure but for some reason i googled his name in April this year. This site came up so my coriousity lead me on. What is this? Does he have a an own site? And then I read some threads, found some funny, some interesting and then i joined thinking i would probably loose interest after a while... That hasn't happened and I don't think it will happen. I am much more interested now than when i joined.

I think it was a link from Joe Hill's site. Maybe 2007/8? Something like that :) I remember being surprised that Mr. King had a site, and curious what was there (here). Though I wandered away for a while (a couple few rough/busy years), I wandered back home :)

I think The Wind Through the Keyhole might also have had something to do with joining - it was published in April of 2012.
It's surprising that the SKMB has been around for so long!
Does one of the moderators know when it was officially launched?

Neesy- I know the SKMB was in existence when SK had his accident. It was right around that time I started "lurking". June 1999

bel post Sigmund ti spiego perchè sono qui:amavo molto leggere King e vedere film tratti dalle sue opere....poi una persona a me molto cara è morta.....non sono riuscito piu' a leggere i libri di King anche se in famiglia me li compravano....poi ho "SENTITO" IL BISOGNO DI ANDARE IN INTERNET,HO TROVATO IL SITO ho trovato Spideyman,Walter,ho capito che se anche un oceano ci divide sul sito ci sono persone con me,stesse gioie,stessi problemi.....è un piacere e un onore avervi trovati su questo sito...........possiamo avere idee diverse ma sicuramente una passione comune:Stephen King e l'emozioni che ci ha fatto vivere fino ad ora con le sue opere

Thank you.
Sigmund nice post I'll explain why I'm here: I really loved reading King and see films taken from his works .... then a person very dear to me is dead ..... I could not more 'to read the books of King also if I bought them in the family .... then I "HEARD" NEED tO GO oN THE INTERNET, I FOUND tHE sITE I found Spideyman, Walter, I realized that even if an ocean divides us on the site there are people with me, same joys, same problems ..... it is a pleasure and an honor to have you found on this site ........... we may have different ideas but definitely a common passion: Stephen King and the emotions that we have did live up to now with his works

I wandered onto the original MB back when I was about 18. Google helped me find it, like it helped so many others, and since I was just discovering the wonders of the internet, I almost immediately became one of those geeky kids that had more friends online than I did in real life. The people here have consistently been nice, open, supportive, awesome people, and they were the reason I wound up staying on the board once I'd found it. And why I keep coming back. :biggrin2:
