I don't think a shortcut to another users comments is worthy of the mighty left hand column.
You can always view your own comments and then over-type the username you are interested in.
However, if you can be bothered to view someone's awesome plus613 homepage then you should be able to link straight to that users recent comments... some other crazy dude

woberto naked on a cake. It's pretty disturbing actually diggles.

woberto - actually would probably be trivial to have 'images commented on by XXX' in their homepage thingy. We could probably do a lot with the homepage thingies but since nobody uses them we never really bothered. Actually that could be used to describe the site winking smiley

I think Pulse is a deranged pervert like he's called us. No matter... he's making excuses anyway. If the homepages were made better they'd be more appealing and get more use.

The 'no typing way' does not produce the desired result, Fossil. Neither does anything I can find in the user's 'awesome' homepage, Woberto. Maybe that is what you meant, but seeing as you speak Australian or something it's hard for me to tell.

Maybe Pulse is trying get himself nekkid on a cake. It's hard to tell how is deranged pervert mind works sometimes and he speaks Australian too, so who knows?

2004-11-15 registered date for woberto. Wonder who our oldest registered users are? There's older than 'berto, and if I weren't so lazy I'd check all the regulars. The oldest image I can find on the site is [plus613.net] - which was uploaded 2003-10-12.

You know, I always thought we launched the site earlier than that. But then I also thought it was in 04. I seriously don't remember.

Thinking about it though it probably is late '03. Means this is the 10th anniversary of the site this year! Ten years of plus613..

stuy is the oldest registered user I can find - 2004-11-10
[plus613.net]

I guess though we didn't take 'registrations' to start with though, hence why we have pictures a year older than users. But I think it's because of that I thought the site was from late 04 not 03 .. Man my memory is bad.

Actually [plus613.net] is the oldest image on the site. Same date as the one above though.

I always thought this one was the oldest but it is a higher number than the one you posted second...

I actually thought the site was from '01, but just have no evidence to back it up. I thought I remembered sitting in revert's old apartment in Camden in London and working on it... so that would've had to have been around April/May 01.

But seriously I can also remember working on it at his place in .au in '03 while I was back for a holiday. I wonder if we have any dated files or anything from the time, or code comments or something?

Nah that's def not right. There's something funky with that account, because aside from myself & revert who have a creation date of 1969 (0 seconds), the next is frank224 then stuy several years later.

Even DK is listed as 2004-11-13, 3 days after stuy.

Thinking about it more though, we didn't have registered accounts for quite a while, it was all anonymous. I can really only go by that picture which is 2003-10-12 - I think that's the most accurate metric I have.

It's good to know (and also ironic) that I am not the only *nix student to neglect keep server logs up to date (or back to date in this case).

This would have to be the 15th physical server this site has run from. I replaced the hosting server about 6 months ago with this one (the other is still online, doing nothing - might make it a second web server), but def no logs going back that far. We'd have gigs of the suckers. All the previous except for current & last were rented servers, I own all the hardware these days.

2003-10-12 would've had me in the UK still, about 6 months or so before I came back to .au - so that's probably on the right track for the place I remember revert living back then. So yeah I'd have to guess Oct '03 was when we launched the site.

10 years this year. Scary really, the amount of bullshit that's come through here smiling smiley It used to be a really popular site, having a thousand+ users online wasn't uncommon, pictures would get dozens, even hundreds of votes, etc. Back when Geocities was all the rage and sucked ass. These days it's all about Facebook and imgur is probably more what this site should've become. We always wanted private spaces/galleries/comments etc. Could've been Facebook but .. you know .. good. smiling smiley

Ah well I'm happy. We've got some cool users, the ads on the porn side pay probably 50% of the running costs (I just absorb hardware purchase, pretend it doesn't happen) so it's all good really. I'll stop reminiscing now winking smiley

imgur encourages cat pictures, plus613 discourages cat pictures...who would have guessed that to be a fatal flaw?
