Question about the forums origin
 

It seems like there is a large community here and having just registered today I was wondering how this place came into being? Since everyone seems to have registered for the forum in April 2003, it seems obvious that you all must have come from somewhere... but where?

This is actually the fourth version of the board. The site recently had a failure and everything had to start over. Most of those who joined were members of the previous version.

Cool thanks for the info

when did the forum start?
with the size of the community, I would guess it started a long time ago.

I have been here through two of the crashes but I never participated cause I thoughtthat it was just a bunch of sleazed out guys. now that I have been reading what is actually going on in some of these threads I have realized I was way in the wrong.

I started coming here before the first crash under the old domain name and all of this other stuff and registration was added to titties board - finally wondered back here again just recently and was pleasantly surprised to see all of this content here now.

But how long since the first incarnation of the bored? Nice to meet you guys, i'm new!

i got the link to this from www.fark.com a long ass time ago

I was here through 1 crash! yay go me!

*yawns*

... tfp tfp tfp

What was the ORIGINAL starting date of the first official tfp? That's what I wanna know.

You could say it was Jan 20th 2002

I know somewhere Hal told the full story, not sure if that was before or after the latest crash...

here it is boys and girls!
