I started checking out Trek sites in January 2002, initially trying to figure out how Orr, Daneeka, McWatt, et al got from Catch-22 into DS9's "Homefront/Paradise Lost". Went from there to working my way through all of Tim Lynch's and Jim Wright's reviews. Noticed the links for 5MV at the bottom of the latter, but didn't follow them right away. Finally read my first fiver in March or April, when it was posted at TrekNation, and spent the next two or three months reading all the fivers that existed at the time (not nearly as many as now, but still quite a few.) Started coming to the Forum (the old IkonBoard) to read the comments, and lurked for a bit before registering in July.
