I was hawkusmaximus on the Nest
Carried over to Rivals 11/09/01 ( @hawkusmaximus )
I was also one of the first on Hawks Nest but cannot remember my username. Moved over here when I think Josh Clark and maybe Jon Miller opened this place up around 2000 as superhawkeye. Had a username for those years but never posted nor logged in, so forgot what it was. The painful ‘07 Iowa football season pushed me to create a new name so I could give a likely freezing cold take about the team. Only really started posting from time to time when got attached to a work desk. Boredom is a bitch! (Particularly for all of you who have to suffer through my posts).
 
Started lurking back on the Big Ten boards and the Hawks Nest. Followed Denver Hawk from the Big Ten board to here. I remember the online meltdown when Bob Stoops went to Oklahoma instead of becoming Iowa's head coach and the hiring of someone named Ferentz that very few of us had heard of. I also remember getting real time information about 9/11 on Hawks Nest. Had to change my username here when my computer konked out and I had no idea what my username or password was due to being a lurker. Didn't really start posting until I retired in 2016

Yep Big Ten boards and DenverHawk! (Was Denver and the newsletter Jon Miller?)
 
Since 10/9/02 by the rivals records. Football and Bball boards on warchant then found the locker room in late 2003. Found HROT some time in 2004.
 
Whenever it started, after whatever the earlier board was called stopped. I used to post under my real name but some tough guy looked me up and posted my address. I decided it probably should switch to a different name. My profil shows 2013; I think at some point I wanted to change my user ID and I had to create a new account.
 
Newb here. Lurked around here since 2008-2009ish. Still remember the yellow snow dude who posted the dude with his leg being eaten by maggots and Steven Patrick.

I actually remember the backstory to joining Rivals & posting on the Iowa board for the first time. I graduated from tOSU in 2005 & moved away. Missed talking to Buckeye fans so I joined Rivals in September 2006. Just so happened there was a highly ranked matchup between tOSU & Iowa that week.

Does anyone else on HROT remember this game?

I hope you stub your toe soon. I flew across the country and bought 50 yard line tickets to watch Anthony Gonzalez destroy Iowa.

I have posted on various Iowa boards for many years, First real online experience started with Prodigy, Chat rooms were the norm more than message boards back then. Posted on various boards as Scott in Indy, Left Indy in 2010 and somehow became Scott559,

I joined Apr 23, 2002

I can't believe I've spent more than two decades arguing with you jackwagons.

Who has more longevity than me?
I joined Nov 12th 2002. Hard to believe it’s been that long. I’ve seen at least 3-4 regimes it seems like. And I’ve kept the same Moniker the whole time.
