Elle 121,280 Posted September 2, 2022 Exactly 10 years ago to this day on September 1st, 2012, LanaBoards.com was created... Happy 10th Birthday, LanaBoards! Over the past decade, we have created over 1 million posts by over 17,000 members, along with countless memories in between. LanaBoards has become a home and a family to so many of our members, and we would not be who we are without our loyal, dedicated member base. Thank you to everyone who has become a part of our family, and has contributed to the wonderfulness and wildness that is LanaBoards.com. We look forward to another 10 years together! I have personally been a member here for over 9 years and the owner for 6 years, and I could not be more grateful for what this silly little website has done for me. I've met so many incredible people from all over the world through LanaBoards that have become lifelong friends to me. Over the years, I've always felt a sense of comfort here, and it truly does feel like home. I would hate to think of how much different my life would be without this place, as it really has had such a great impact on my life. I'll always cherish the memories, friendships, and traditions we have here on LanaBoards, and it is my greatest honour to continue to host this site for you all. Sending all of my love to each and every one of you xx 51 Quote • 4.18.14 • 5.1.14 • 9.20.14 • 5.28.15 • 6.14.15 • 7.28.16 • 7.24.17 • 10.23.17 • 10.24.17 • 1.25.18 • 2.5.18 • 12.5.18 • 10.3.19 • 10.11.19 • 11.16.19 • SF • ATL • ATL • IND • ATL • CHI • LDN • NYC • NYC • DC • ATL • NYC • PDX • SAN • KS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Siren 30,521 Posted September 2, 2022 for me, one of my fav moments was when Deluluking was banned and had his meltdown on the leaks site *which shall not be names* and was swiftly taken down several notches by Queen Elle 7 Quote Last.FM | Discogs | JOYRIDE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blue Ink 5,906 Posted September 2, 2022 (edited) I only came here in 2020 I think which was too late, like what took me so long?! I've been a fan since 2012. Well I love it here because the vast majority of y'all is cute and all the insane posts and status updates really make me laugh sometimes. Favorite threads are any pre-release thread and Pictures of you (because I'm nosy af) and I love reading the status updates. I also really appreciate @Elle as the boss. You always think of fun threads for special occasions and really put in the effort if there's technical issues etc. You're appreciated (but you also know that).

SoftwareUpgrade 19,349 Posted September 2, 2022 The Sky Ferreira thread and its accompanying paragraphs on the rise and stall of said singer + whenever Lana posts a crumb and the pre-release thread of the season gets 10 pgs with a new barrage of inside jokes #Happy10LB 7 Quote I'm Poppy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why is this me LMAO I’m so grateful for this site because of the people here, everyone is so ratchet and crazy and funny and hot 🥵 The volatility of this forum sends me every time; one moment we’re celebrating and the next we’re starving. I live for the gif gates, the l34ks, the sudden sc4t, and the annual Lipsters cause everyone gets so creative and the results are always hilarious. Above all I’m thankful for the friendships, bonds, and relationships that I’ve formed with so many of you 16 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IanadeIrey 62,020 Posted September 2, 2022 Happy birthday to this site that we’ve all found a home in! Can’t believe it’s been 10 years. I love this community so much and feel such a kinship with everyone here. It’s pretty crazy that we are all united by our love for Lana and have connected in other ways too. Here’s to 10 more amazing years (and many more)! <3 thank you so much @Elle for keeping this site alive and running for us all, we truly would not be in this space without you and your generosity of spirit. 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

niandra lades 2,454 Posted September 2, 2022 So happy! Lanaboards' birthday is here! I remember when I joined in 2017, a little less than a month before Lust for Life came out! I have the name tattooed on me and Lanaboards is a part of that time of my life. I came back in 2019 (and I felt so welcome) and enjoyed the NFR Pre-release so much this is a fun, interesting and amazing page to be in and I love to read you all and to talk about the artist I love the most in the world! I was just thinking that when I have a daughter, I'll come read this forum while I wait in the car for her to get out of school.

GeminiLanaFan 49,030 Posted September 2, 2022 Happy bday, LB!!! we’re a crazy bunch for sure, but when we work together and put our FBI skills at task, it’s completely crazy the amount of info we’ve been able to gather with each pre-release era.
