How Did You Find SF?

How did you come across SF?
I found it through About.com in 2003 I think and joined in 2004 to settle a bet about whimsical ties.

Didn't DocH get here as apart of a group who came here to try to crash the server?

I read about Ask Andy in QG in late 2007. Joined AAAC, read it for a month, found styleforum through all the dual members, and left ACAC forevah.

Google search result, though I can't remember what I was searching for.

NYT article in the month I joined.

I think it was through GQ Forums, in 2004 or 2005. Rejoined after The Great Crash.

I migrated from AAAC, which I found back in college (2003 or so) when I was researching tuxedos. I didn't become an active SF member until 2007, though. I remember having a ridiculous and unnecessary debate with Labelking.

found it in the summer of 2006 after a promotion at work required me to wear a suit Monday through Thursday

I'd run across in in google searches before, but I would usually just run a forum search looking for the answer to my question. In October I started visiting more regularly, then a few weeks ago I decided the secret CE section was worth my effort, so I've been trying to inconspicuously increase my post count since, posting mainly in DT to go unnoticed.

Yep, me too. I googled Joseph Abboud suits (JAZ) and an entire thread ripping the name of the new line came up.

Google.

Google. I was trying to find a dress shirt that would fit me, for a funeral.

You'll regret it.

1. ebay -> "wtf is that?" -> Google -> styleforum
2. ditto
3. ditto
4. ditto
. . .
187. ebay -> "wtf" -> styleforum search function
. . .
200. eventually became a member and started blabbering away with the rest of the forum.

one of the biggest benefits of styleforum is all the learning about online vendors that supply what i need. this let me cut ebay out almost entirely.
