If you recall (some of you are newer and may not) some time ago we had a member or two who were adolescents and under the age to be posting on the PD forum. One brave and brilliant young woman, Celeste decided to make her own forum for teenagers (male and female) who are or think they are devotees. I am happy to say that it looks like that board is picking up and taking off. Such a wonderful thing for these young people to have each other for support all around the world. Bless the interwebs! "If you build it, they will come," couldn't be more apt in this case. And ladies, remember, you must be UNDER 21 to join and post. Awesome job, Celeste. devoteen.freeforums.org/index.php

Oooh, I like the way she's organized her boards a lot! Having 24 members after only a month is way impressive, though. I just wonder what's going to happen when a lot of those 21-year-olds turn 22...

OMG Lucretia I did similar things at the medical library at college. It really helped me with my library research skills when I had to do it for non-dev purposes. I'm so happy to see devo teen is going well. Circuit, I think it has been more than a month though, maybe 6 or so.

From the look of it, the board's only been open since April 16, 2011, since that's when Celeste registered her account there. Unless she has another admin helping her out who got there first, then it's only been open to the public since then. The board owner is always the first member, and all users have their join date visible by default on freeforums.
It's very possible that the main site's been around longer though. It's usually the case with website-message board relations, where the site comes first and then the owner adds a forum later.
