What is the oldest document written by a player still in the game?

Question

Players can write letters, labels, books, scrolls and other kinds of documents, and they remain in the game with the player's name and date of writing recorded in it. What is the oldest document written by a player still in the game?

Answer 1

Dates were only added to letters during Winter update 2005, prior to that players could write on documents and have the text saved with no date stamp. Letters have been available in game since 1998, so I would assume the oldest written document could be from around this time, however there is no way to verify any document before 2005.
