Good read I must say! I didn't know that MetPage is SO old!
Currently trading only Metallica and Dream Theater stuff. Shoot me a PM for my dvd list.

Its been a long fun road since the early days of 'The Sanitarium', have talked and made a lot of great friends online and even met a few throughout the years. Going through all the upgrades and skins and working with people outside the site. This definitely has been a part of my life that I have enjoyed and a big thanks to everyone I worked with and keeps the place going now. The conception of 'the lounge' and the respected members was just an idea that has turned into a very 'respected' program. The RMs help take care of this place and show the community what a community should be like.

Thank you, thank you and to those of you in the background, lurking, thank you too!
Bleed the day.

Damn... still remember when Dave posted saying that he wanted someone to continue this legacy. It was April 2001 if I'm not mistaken. Almost 9 years later this place is so into my skin that It's almost as vital as breathing :)

I've grown a lot due to metpage, with coding, server management, trading, the tracker, you name it.

Do you (old) guys still remember the days when we had the ftp list? And the (so so) shitty news program? From those days until now we've changed like hell and we continue to try to introduce new ways of keeping people together in this big-fucking Metallica family.

Long live metpage, long live all the people that are part of it and will be part of it.

And never forget, we're here to have fun and help each other. Specially the newbies (like I was when I started) that don't even know what a bootleg is :)

Ha that was me when I joined, I was looking for Metallica Fan Sites when I stumbled across MetPage and Metfuk and MetCoverArt. The cover art intrigued me and drew me in. I started making covers before I ever started trading. The rest is history... :)


Now if I could find the time to make covers again. But being in love and in a committed relationship eats up so much of my time. :wub:
