How did you discover Thesite.org??

Former Member

I think I found it about a year ago when I googled something.
Took me ages to discover the forums and even longer to finally register

Former Member

I think I googled something about Age Gap relationships and TheSite.org popped up, and I'm a forum tart - so joined

Former Member

Can't remember what I googled, but I found the forum. Took me ages to realise that it had all of the articles and stuff.

Former Member

It was linked to on a forum I used to visit.

Former Member

Off the BBC website

Former Member

My mum showed it to me when I first started self-harming. Now she hates it

Former Member

I googled something about drugs I think then I just joined but didn't really come on here much in the first fews months then I started coming on here when I was at work cos I used to get so bored !

Former Member

One of my best mates is a member and he told me about it.

Former Member

Yeah, like everyone else, I googled something, and joined to ask a question. I seem to remember it being ages before I realised it wasn't just the forum too :chin:

Former Member

I remember reading the Daily Mail complaining it was outrageous a website aimed at young people informed them about drugs and talked openly about sex.

After the initial disappointment, I joined

Former Member

School gave us a list of useful websites...Joined to ask a question, now I turn to here whenever I need advice =]

I'm sure quite a few people joined after reading that If the Daily Mail is against something there's more chance I'll be for it

Former Member

We were suggested it at school and as I was in my first big relationship and sex was on the cards, I pretty much learnt all the info I needed to off thesite. Big respect for thesite!

Former Member

googling drug stuff :thumb:

Bunnie

Just googling when I was bored at work in my old job - stuck around ever since!

Former Member

I was sent the what animal are you in bed quiz. I'd never been on a message board before so I thought I'd try... had I known then what I do now, I'd of never even taken that quiz

Former Member

my mum told me about it cuz she heard about it from work

Former Member

I found it 8 years ago in a teen magazine

Former Member

ohh why bad press?

Former Member

It was in the browser cache on the family computer years ago, I had a gander at it and then didn't come back on for a year or so, had a look again when the thought cropped up then found out it had forums. Must have been lurking for ages before I joined.

Former Member

A girl from school kept going on about her thesite lover, so i came to stalk her a bit But i didn't sign up for years later as i couldnt stand the layout back then.

Former Member

I was reading an article about a news presenter, Martin somebody-or-other? Anyway, he was involved with TheSite at the time (maybe he still is) and a link was provided.

Former Member

i think i googled it too cnt remeber what i was looking for though

Former Member

I can't really remember. I know I used to come and look at the site (I think I may have read about it in a newspaper) for quite a while before registering, then once I was at uni and had internet in my room, I registered.

Former Member

About 3 years ago, a friend of mine was googling something and came across here and another place. The other place he came across he posted on a forum I used to post on. We were talking, he gave me the link to this place and said that this place seems to generally full of people around my age. (the other one wasn't)
