As we can tell via the increasing record breaking 'most users online' etc... this site is becoming increasingly popular.

I just wonder how people found out about the site and then joined !!

So thought I'd start a poll.

So.... How did you find out about this site and perhaps once you came across it, how long until you decided to register yourself :D

For me.... someone was talking about it around the footy club, so I thought I'd take a look... was registered within 3 days... loved the look of it so much O:)

Opted for 'other'. I found this place because there's a link to it on the Redlegs Forum.

Joined the Legs Forum in Jan 07 and lurked quietly on here as a guest until the 'Great Server Crash of 07' when the only way to see anything was to register...so I did :D

I signed up here after 'the big bang' on FootySA.

I think we all had to go about 12 hours without a website. Shocking.

BAYMAN + MT79 those dudes are responsible for me getting on SAFOOTY.
I used to view the Gambling Room to see what was being tipped at the trots and dogs.
I enjoyed reading the yarns as well.
I viewed for several months until coaxed by BAYMAN to come on board.

Not sure about anyone else, but I had never drunk until then ( :shock: ) - the booze got me through it.

I used the Norwood site first, then searched and found footySA and signed up there.
I moved here when it foundered soon after - I think there was a period of overlap.

Remembered seeing it somewhere at school and logged on to read the EP thread.

Yeah i used to post on Footy SA, and was quite annoyed/disappointed when that closed down, i heard about this new site (SA Footy) and was a bit reluctant to move over at first, but glad i did, it has a lot of stuff Footy SA didn't have eg. country footychat. Its a brilliant site :D

I found the Roost about 3 years ago. Used to read on here as a guest of about year before finally signing up.
