If no one minds me talking about the Wayback Machine (internet archive) I would like to request some help:
I am trying to find my first post ever. However, it was in the My LEGO Network forum, so I have to use the Wayback Machine for it. However, I am currently stuck in an endless redirect loop due some weird authentication error and can't actually get in. I would really like to preserve that part of my history on the LEGO Message Boards, and I am also writing a speech for the closing and would really like to get my join date correct.

Wayback Machine fundamentally doesn't save every single thing. It crawls through the web archiving, but there's no guarantee that it'll hit the exact topic at the exact page number at any time, and since that there is no MLN forum anymore, it isn't available to archive anymore. If you've check every date and still can't get to it, you're probably not finding it.
By the grace my God has invested into me, I shall lead and follow onto glory.

It's not that I can't find it, it's that everytime I try to open the Message Boards in the Wayback, it continuously redirects between pages that I assume are authentication related without actually loading anything. Strangely, it only happens with the new boards and not with the old ones.
The date on your profile is the date of your first post; it is not the date you created your account.

Actually, it's neither. It's the date you first visited the LMBs with your account.
Proof? JayZX535. She was a reader on the new MBs for awhile, yet her account shows a join date of July 2012.
Right, right... maybe it was updated for reader ranks...

I created my account on January 27th, 2010 to play LEGO Universe and didn't discover the boards until a little over 2 years later, about 8 to 10 months before the 2012 update.

Odd, but as of May 2012 the join date was NOT the date you created your account nor the first post. My account is proof. It could have been different before then though.
Hey RuleJJ, Just checking in on you, I know you don't post sometimes just cause you just need a break or life's more important. But wondering if you're ok cause it's been a longer inactivity then usual.
