With so many new people joining the TeamMiG message board, I am curious how each member discovered TeamMiG and its message board.
I'll go first.
I joined the TeamMiG message board the day it opened for business in early October!
(Okay, I orginally signed up with a different ID but I didn't like it. I was too goofy to know I could easily change my ID, so I created "floridafan" a few days later. I know better now!)
In September 2005, I was reading the Rock Star:INXS message board and kept hearing about a group of people calling themselves TeamMiG, who started promoting a "MiG only" discussion group.
I joined the TeamMiG yahoo group while we all waited "impatiently" for the TeamMiG website to be operational. Along with the TeamMiG home page, we also got this cool message board.
So, I have been reading and posting ever since.
And, I have to give a big shout out to Nancy (sunshine) and Laura (hellola) for creating such a wonderful home for all of us MiG-loving fans.

What's your story? How did you hear about TeamMig and its message board?

Ooooh, great thread #smiley2#
Mine's simple...I was posting away on the rockstar boards one day and on the "most recent topics" menu at the side appeared a MiG thread....so I clicked on it and saw someone mention for the first time "Team MiG", a little while later a thread began titled "Team MiG" and I posted away...if I remember correctly it was on page 17 when I jumped on the wagon...and i've classed myself as a Team Migger ever since ;D I think it must have been the first day or something.
Now we have this lovely home and many more MiG days to come ;D ;D ;D *does a happy dance* #happydan#

I've been on the message board since day 1. I was mostly reading the RSI boards, but hated all the negativity. I was attracted to the Team Mig thread because it was so positive (those that weren't, I put on "ignore"). I never posted much at RSI or other message boards that I read because everyone was so eloquent. What I love about Team Mig is that everyone is so accepting of others. We are here to support Mig AND each other! It is sooo much fun here!! See I'm not shy anymore!!! #blbl# (I've been wanting to use that smilie!) Love you all!!! Mary Lee

I used to 'lurk' in the RS INXS boards, but there was too much negativity there, as Mary Lee so perfectly pointed out. I loved MiG and searched around on his sites. It took me a while to actually post because I had never done anything like that before. But Team Mig was filled with such cool people just filled with positive and fun vibes, I took the plunge. So, the rest is history. I don't post a lot, but I enjoy reading everyone else's posts.
I hate the weekends because I can't get on the computer to read the boards. My admiration for Mig and my obsession with this site are secrets I keep from my family. LOL!
Love & Hugs, SuzeQ

I too became intriqued by TeamMig while reading (I didn't post much) the RSI boards. I was only posting on migcentral. I joined the Yahoo group, but I didn't visit it much at all. When this site began I immediately became a member and have posted ever since. And have loved it ever since.

I was ALL over the RSI boards but MOSTLY in MiG's folder gushing and drooling with other posters when "Team MiG" started. After RS ended there was SSOOOOO much negativity about EVERYTHING and EVERYBODY that it just wasn't fun anymore. I joined the Yahoo Group but never posted in there, was waiting for this site to come up...and the rest, as they say, is HISTORY!!! #teammig# Christine ;D

Yes excellent thread......I did the "read only" thing at the RSI boards until I heard mention of Team Mig's yahoo group and joined that. And yes we all waited rather impatiently #doh# for this website to come up and hallelujah #bounce015# it did. I joined on the spot and am so glad I did. I just wanna say that the girlfriends I have met and made and PM with Lily, Donna, Cammie and now SuzeQ are the best. Truly shows you that MiG brings the best people to him! Exquisite taste we all have eh? #soep# hee hee. I rarely post but of late have come out of my shell more thanks to these awesome ladies who inspire and of course all things MiG ...aah dont get me started #wow# #punten# . I love reading all your comments and this will be an interesting one..Kellee

I googled MiG pictures and found MiG Central and then started reading stuff on message boards there and they had lots of links to here.

I started to watch RS 1/2 way into the show and fell head over heels for MiG!! I voted via RS web site and surfed the RS web page. I couldn't get enough info and pics of MiG. I saw the link to MiG Ayesa.com and registered there. Then from that site I saw the link to MiGcentral. From a post in there, I finally registered at Team MiG at yahoo. I didn't care for the way the site was set up. I was use to the forum set up from the previous two sites. Then the global fan site started up and viola... I have been hooked ever since. All you gals were so welcoming and I immediately felt the warm and MiGGy love. This is my home away from home...

I was a lurker in RSI board, posted only 4-5 times (too much negativity). Found the Team MiG thread and joined because of the positive vibes. Joined the YG as soon as it was set up and was active there. Next this site. I guess I don't need to tell you how active I am in here. Jane

I didn't find TeamMiG until after Rockstar ended. When it was over, I started to have MiG withdrawals, #1381# so I got on the internet and found some sites. At first I was mostly checking out MiG's official site and then some others, but TeamMig was just so welcoming and friendly. I felt very comfortable posting here and there seems to be more info here also.

Argh, I can't remember exactly how I found the YG. It could have been from RSI boards, or Snarkgasm or Rockband. I was on those sites A LOT because I NEEDED the spoilage!!! Anyway, as soon as I heard on the YG that this board was up and running, I joined.

In fact, it's been a pretty long time since Rockstar ended! lol I got the Rockstar: INXS DVD for Christmas, but, there are only two MiG songs ( ) and I started missing seeing him every week even more than I already had been, so, I stared searching online for pictures, videos, whatever I could find! I first found migcentral and then I came across this one. I love it!
