I've been proud since day 1 :)
And yes there have been a lot more legitimate members as of late, as opposed to the spammers who only contribute posts to get access to the tracker.

Not to backtrack but I have been proud since post no1!! as well, it is such a close friendly community unlike others and yes getting rid of the spammers has made it a better site for everyone, I hope........

When I became a member about 2 years ago, Metpage looked not so popular a place to me,
but since the release of Death Magnetic, this site has taken a huge step in popularity and statistics.

I used to post quite regularly back when I 1st joined in '04 but there was a time where these forums became the "ultimate fan boy hangout" and if you said ANYTHING even remotely negative about the band you were basically attacked with all the "not a real fan" BS which is why I stopped posting.

It's much much better now and has been for the last year or more.

Thanks, I appreciate the welcome I've gotten here. Must say, as I've been looking around, seems to be a great place with a ton of cool members, topics and shows going around. Hope to be able to contribute a bit to the community here.

well i joined in late 2007 roughly around the same time as you i think. and when i 1st joined i had the same kind of feelings, if you said anything negative then you were attacked instantly.
kind of reminded me of the days i spen tover at the 4horsemen site.
this has since stopped and been better for it.
every1 here seems friendly and helpfull which is the way a fan community should be.

all hail metpage lol :)

your right dave, we've had some great new members recently, those you mentioned and more.
I joined back in 2003 and its great to see this community still growing.

we still get people signing up just to get tracker access, but with the new rules in place now its harder for those not wanting to contribute to just hit the tracker and run ;)
