I've had my email addy for about 14 years now,  although it's changed from Comcast to TWC to Road Runner.  My CBSSportsline acct is probably as old.

This thread just reminded how bad Hotmail's online storage used to be.

Wasn't it something like 2MB?

AOL since around 1991, but I stopped using it around 1993.  I kept the account for my mother who still uses it to this day.

I love AOL because they were the pioneers in downloadable video games.  They originated by selling a product that allowed you to download games to the Atari 2600 over a phone line.

I've had my hotmail account since 1998-99.
Same. It's not my main one anymore, but I still check it every day.

I probably have a hotmail account from 97 or so that may still function. My college email was opening in 99 and still works.

I think my GameFAQs account is like 11 years old at this point but I was permabanned from the forums for saying that snape kills dumbledore :(

Are you serious? What an embarrassingly childish thing of them to do. :facepalm:

It's the GameFAQs forums, that place is like the Lord of the Flies of the internet.

Probably my hotmail account. I've had it about 7 years. I made it as I realised that the first account I made, made me sound like I wanted to be a superhero or I was up my own ass.

I miss high school :(

I still have my AOL account, which I've had for 12 years now. Use the e-mail as an emergency contact in case I lose control of my Gmail account-which actually happened once, damn Chinese WoW gold sellers!

We got our first PC in 1997, and I think the AOL account I had back then still exists, though obviously I haven't used it in at least 10 years or so.

My Yahoo! account is probably around 12 years old. After that, AIM is probably my oldest.

my prsguitarsr4me aol account is from 2000, and I have two older aol accounts (1998) that I don't know the password for - my dad still uses his username (screen name) from that account so those are probably still active

EDIT: yea i just realized my dad's aol and ebay accounts have been active since 1996 - almost 17 years

I'm pretty sure I've had my yahoo email for 10+ years. Also know I've had the same AIM account (although I never use it anymore) for 12+ years.

Probably my GameSpot account, since 04 I think. Had stuff before that, but can't remember what sites or actually still use them.

For email I started on original dialup AOL (still remember it was pmr45@aol.com lol), then my local ISP, then gmail and hotmail for school, also have a Yahoo account too, but never use it.

My GFAQS account is probably the oldest. Probably around 2001 (I've been banned from there twice though, so my current account isn't that old).

So, my oldest active one that I still use is (coincidentally enough) the first place that I used the handle, Ultimetalhead: The Megadeth Forums in 2004.

I got an email a while ago from ebay that said Happy 10 years with us, so that would be my oldest.
