I was looking for women. The fact that I ended up here should tell you how poor I am at that.

I cannot remember now, which site it was that linked me to here originally. I used to frequent the 007 Fandom site (ugh), and there was some other Bond site that I can't remember now, which had the link to here.

Glad I found my way here. :)

Hey, CBn has one of the only female staff members of any Bond site (as far as I know), and there are quite a few female forum members -- and they're all good looking! So you didn't do too badly, Catspaw. :)

(But you gotta hit LOTR sites for the real nutty babes. :))

I used to be active on both sites, but 9/11 really slowed down the AJB forums (understandably, of course), but I noticed that CBN didn't miss a beat.

Hmmm, staff member...

Well ZC, I think you're the only one who gets to worship at the feet of that particular goddess. :)

And of course, if I really was looking for a date, there are a lot better places to be for that. :)

I came across this site a few months before Die Another Day was released. I always checked on this site for news and opinons.

Ahh yes, how could I forget, like Alex Zamudio did a search for Bond 20 on google. I remember I was located to Bond20.com and then found my way to bluehazemovies.com, where Tomb Raider and Tailor of Panama sites where also located. Yeah, that was years ago, and still committed to Bond 21. DEDICATION BABY!!

I remember finding out a year or two ago the first thread on CBn was a Bond 21 I'm pretty sure. Pretty cool to see that much thought in advance for a Bond film.

I don't quite remember how I found this site (yes it was THAT long ago).
I think I had found the official site, but soon became bored with it as it wasn't meeting my Bond "needs." So, another google search, and I then landed here, where there was an active community and a constant stream of news.

I simply looked up all the Bond websites I could find and decided this was the best 007 forum to join. I think I came across the site during the making of DAD but wasn't really sure what forums were about and I was also a big sucker for Kimberly Lasts website since in the late 90s it was about the only 007 site online.

Initially I had googled James Bond and came across the Universal Exports site. The majority of their main page articles were linking to CBn, and after a while I finally smartened up and began visiting this site more regularly than UnivEx. After a few years of reading the boards I finally decided to join. Have been coming back every day since then.

About 6 years ago I got lost at Mi6's old site. Ended up here. Haven't looked back since. Signed up with a user name in '08, didn't start to use it until last year.


I'm a bit of a late bloomer.

Well after falling off the Bond-wagon for a while after 'DAD' and falling back into Star Wars with the prequels from 2002-2005 keeping my going, it was with 'Casino Royale' in 2006 that "re-booted" my love for Bond again, gave me the kiss of life and I've never been more happier it did to remind me what I loved most in the world.

Wanting to find all things Bond, it was a simple Google search that took me to CBn, now I do remember looking on the main page before 'CR' came out, but as Bond-world was quiet, it didn't grab me much. But with Bond back in my life, I wanted to share it with others and so I joined in October 2006 but, as with the Cheif above, I was a very late bloomer and it's been pretty much since 'Quantum Of Solace' and now 'Skyfall' I've really dived into the deep end with you guys and found my second home with some great people on here, great threads and a wealth of information to chew on.

Never looked back and never will with CBn!

Weirdly enough it was another forum that led me here. I post over at Superherohype (ChickenScratch btw) and back before CR there was this ongoing Bond thread and I kept noticing that people were contributing to the thread in scores but very few among them ever even read a Bond novel. So I came looking for here because I wanted Literary Bond chat.

Perhaps like many others, I did a Google search for a 'james bond forum'. And well, here I am. I'm glad I signed up, it's easily one of the best forums I've been to (and coincidentally the first forum I registered to.)

I remember trying to find info about who would succeed Pierce as Bond back in 2004. I found a link to this site and after a long while finally joined the forums.

I looked up Skyfall spoilers and found the "SPOILERS: Skyfall" section. I then checked out the rest of the site and realized it was awesome, so I signed up.
