A bit of nostalgia today - going back to the original wwwboard that ran here from July 1999 - early 2002.
Disclaimer: The stats below are not perfect, we did not have sign-ins, so you typed your own name in. I caught and fixed some alternate spellings, but likely missed others. The old WWWBoard was translated to a series of archive web pages. We think we converted them all, but I am not sure. These post counts only include answers, not posts by the OP. If you want to dig deeper into the data, download the workbook from the link at the bottom.
The board started in 1999. Top posts in 1999:
Ivan Moala with 117
Chris D with 64
The very first answer ever was posted by Ivan Moala on July 6, 1999: Excel Function "Type" does not work properly
In 2000, the top post counts:
Celia with 656
Ivan Moala with 531
Ryan with 204
Tim Francis-Wright 171
David with 83
Aladin Akyurek with 74
Ben O with 68
JAF with 68
Ada with 67

Thanks to everyone who has ever posted an answer here and to the people who have been a regular member of the community over the years. The collective Excel knowledge here is amazing.
