I'm looking at the posts made from when I was a baby, and I just got curious all of a sudden. Lol!  :D

I would have liked to have been here in 2004. I joined in 2015..

There's myself, CatwomanofV, Howard, IndyGent, Philip...and of course Chucky G.

All I remember in 2004 was giving my mother headaches

There's myself, CatwomanofV, Howard, IndyGent, Philip...and of course Chucky G.

I've been here about 21 years and the others are pretty much the same amount of years or maybe just a bit earlier than that.

I joined in 2004 too  :)

I believe karen also joined in 2004.

I joined earlier than that. There was a mega board crash in April 2004 so we all had to rejoin.

Also, if you just check poster profiles it won’t show serial delete/joiners such as Jessica, Rice Cube and Midas. Bobby has also been around for quite a few years, though these all post very rarely now.

It also won't show some of the more obvious people who delete and rejoin under different names, although I don't know how far back they go in the first place.

You forgot a lot-Karen & AmericanGirl were already mention. Wagonman, LyricBoy, Philbo, Danoota sticks her head in from time to time and of course Don Carlos.


Cat

There are also a bunch of parody writers who post in the Am I Right section, but not anywhere else.

...old posters?

I joined here after the crash in May 2004, and where have all the years gone?

Yup. And I was one of the handful of rejoiners.

Yes I did; I just went with the ones I could think of off the top of my head. I do remember LB and Philbo from the old version of the site too.

I joined in 2005, shortly after.

I joined earlier than that. There was a mega board crash in April 2004 so we all had to rejoin.


And after the crash, we had to sign in as usual.

I definitely wasn't posting here in 2004, I was only 6 or 7 years old. I joined this site in 2016. But, I do remember 2004, when I was in kindergarten and first grade. I remember being excited in the summer of 2004 that I was going to have the same teacher in first grade who I had in kindergarten, because I liked having her as my teacher the year before. I was really interested in cars and the new models of cars that were new then. I remember dressing up as a television for Halloween in 2004!  ;D
Of course, I don't have as clear memories of 2004 as more recent years, though the earliest year I can remember at all is probably 2000.

And after the crash, we had to sign in as usual.

Did anyone ever find out why it crashed or is it a mystery to this day?

There is some talk that it was UFOs, just like the Great Blackout of 1965, but that may just be a conspiracy theory.  :o

Chucky might have an answer, since he's the one who ran it. 'Tis possible that it the software that ran it wasn't very strong. It did have its share of glitches from time to time. I first posted here in 2003, albeit as a Guest, and noticed that sometimes it was down...and after Chucky restored the site, he would give an explanation as to what happened.

Lol, yeah they knew you would join inthe00s two decades later! Haha  ;D

Dammit that software! Lol.

Yep, it wasn't as strong back then. Technology has come a long way since then.
On a similar note...during that span, I was taking courses in Computer Science so I learned a thing or two about software functions and stuff, but to make a long story short, it wasn't the right academic major for me.

Sometimes it was slow and it told you to come back later.

The data for the website was based in Roswell?

Dang, I was just a month old when that thread was created. It's interesting to see what was going on back then.

I think inthe00s could be one of the oldest message boards in the history of message boards. It's been up since 1998 I think? That's a long time.

What is the oldest Internet comment/forum thread?

Yep, I remember that. (Of course I couldn't get on until the afternoon my time due to academic reasons.)

It sure is. (Although in some respects it doesn't quite seem so long.)

Yeah it's been around 23 years.

It was a just a few years into using the internet at that time and I started my first home page.

I believe it was in 1996, it was called go.com then it was taken over by Disney later on and after that I changed over to Gmail.

Is your homepage still up? I want to see!

Sorry I forgot you mentioned it was taken over by Disney.

What was your homepage about?

Yeah, Disney bought out various organisations and stuff...

Also in that year, I hadn't started going online yet. For one thing, we didn't have it at home.

As for Gmail, I started on there in 2007.

Unfortunately Jess, Disney Studios took over my homepage but my original homepage was just a site where I can check news weather and other important articles too plus check my email.

I read somewhere that this message board was dead.  ;D

By the way I’ve been at InThe00s since “before the crash”.  I think I started in 2002.  :)

This board will never die, Chucky could most likely bring this site someplace else and move it over there.

Maybe it was 20 years, I'm not too sure, I do remember I had a "jamminoldies" nickname.

This post was made on the day that I was born. Very interesting to read through!  :D :o

Too bad I wasn't here in 04. I think I have my journal entries from that year and day. I know I have them somewhere!

Ah yes, I seem to remember that moniker too. ;) Then you switched to your real name.

I wish I would have been here back when it started😁

There were LOTS of folks on here every day; you would've enjoyed it all, I'm sure.

Sometimes people move on.

I joined in 2005.  Hard to believe I've been here that long.  I used to be a hardcore poster, but I've since stepped back to cameo guest star.  Well, maybe a bit more than that.  I'm the Jack Dalton of the original MacGyver.  I show up every now and then :D

Sometimes people move on.

I'm pretty sure that's the case with some of the regulars from circa 2005 through '07. Their accounts are still here, but they've not been around in quite a while. Occasionally one or two of them might drop in briefly.

I wonder why they stopped coming on here.

Most likely they've gotten bored and moved on to other things.

I discovered this website in 2004 but I didn't become an official member until 2010(even that's 11 years ago).

Throughout the 2000s there was endless threads on this site about how the decade was an extension of the 1990s. ;D

There was one particular member in the mid 2000s who was constantly accused of "decadeology".

Hard to believe that 2005 is now just as long ago as 1989 was when we first joined.

It just seems like everyone left at the same time, which is a bit weird.

Things started to get tense around here. Yeah, that decadeology crap had a lot to do with it. This person would post thread after thread after thread. It was annoying people because he was flooding ALL the boards with these threads. Finally Chucky had enough and banned him-and banned decadeology. But, he came back again and again and again doing the same thing. Because of that, many people were very suspicious of newbies. We lost a lot of potentially good board members because they were being chased off by people thinking that they COULD have been this guy. Then these same people would cry how the boards were toxic and they were the ones who were making the boards toxic. And many left. After they left, the boards weren't toxic anymore. Hmmm, it is amazing how that happens.  I'm sure some of them would say that Carlos & I were part of the reason this place was toxic. Yeah, I had my disagreements with some of them. And the main issue with Carlos stemmed from a misunderstanding that they never let him explain what he meant. They only thought the worst of him. As much as I miss some of them, others I am very glad they left.

At the time, I was very vocal about all his repetitive threads, and one day, he tried to curb that by simply replying "bump" to older topics I had started, so now all of the sudden it looked like I was spamming with threads.  I told him that wasn't cool, but he didn't seem to understand.  I know he had health issues that contributed to the way he was, but these boards were not the best place for him

I always stayed out of those. Said user was ultimately banned for all the D-crap.

I joined in the early 2010s and even then there was still a lot of decadeology posts.

One guy even made a knockoff version of this board to get around the ban.

Such posts threads were terminated by the mods/admins.

I am in contact with him. We last saw each other in 2015. We will probably get together again when the pandemic calms down. I have asked him about coming back but he felt that there were a few people who were just too nasty-and of course those people no longer post here, either.  :-\\  Maybe some day he will come back.
