I'm sure many of us didn't make an account before we started browsing the forums.
I joined in late 2011, but had browsed the forums since the days of Halo 2.
I believe I actually looked in the forums for the first time around '06, it was before Halo 3 released for sure.
I simply read, but never made an account and commented. Kinda glad I didn't though, I was just a kid.
This place would have chewed me up and spit me out :)
