Those of you using Mozilla, can't see this number.

I remember when I first came aboard. For those newbees, not to worry. Everyone gets the cold shoulder for a while until you start to get under our skin (most times for the best...but not always).

You know you're getting old on FT when...

-you've done 6 Brooklyn Reality Tours.
-you long for the good old days (always 1 year before you joined).
-you need 10 fingers to be reminded how many times you've hung out with ....(fill in name here)
-you reminisce about how it cost you 20,000 miles to cash in a free domestic ticket.
-you can't believe that you had a credit card that didn't earn miles.
-people come to you for advice.
-you don't respond to a thread because the question has been asked/answered many times before
-you lose patience with some posters who don't share your writing/posting style.
-you have a habit of looking out for newbees in Coupon Connection.
-people address you by your screen name.
-you're still upset about missing the BA $20 fare because you were having drinks with ... Flyertalkers.

And finally, you know you're getting old on Flyertalk when: you've shared a room, meal, plane ride, football/baseball game, all with the same person.
