Well, I was recently using web.archive.org for a reason, and I decided to see if any versions of AGN were on it. I tried it, and it worked. Low and Behold, now I could see what the forums looked like at different times, and even some classic themes and whatnot...

Anywho, I looked at the most recent one, and it turned out to be June 21 or something like that last year, and it was just about the time that I first came to AGN. And so, I humbly present my newbieness of first arriving, caps locked title and all. It wasn't so bad. Really.

LOL!! There's me and GM!!

Wow, that's cool, I remember those themes, there's that awesome one, the blue and large text one with the characters around Armageddon Games. I miss UBB. I even remember a few of those old topics.

Unforunately, I wasn't able to locate my first post though.

This place is really cool.

Interesting. Looked at the old(er) QDB, and checked the Quests forum.

The most recent quest submitted was October 6, 2001.

Niiice...

Oh, shut up.

Speaking of that, though, there's no way to get into the FTP of that, is there? Might be nice to get some files off of there; basically, the uploader that stopped working properly, forcing us to look for an alternative (I'm totally serious; half of the quests weren't being uploaded).
