Just thought I'd post this here. A little bit of nostalgia got the best of me. Should be sleeping, though. Think that perhaps I will. 90% of the threads aren't accessible, but I'm sure many of these could be hunted down elsewhere But in the mean time...enjoy the topic listing!

    Wow, look at all those old names!

    Oh, that's really really cool. The contact list thread is still alive!
  • MessiahMessiah Failed Experiment
    That's before I registered. I was lurking around at the time though..

    Haha, that was just a couple months before I joined, I love some of the topics:

    [i]Question about Napster...
    3dfx releases Voodoo 5!
    What is the best system for ItF?! (G series vs. Intel & clones) [/i]

  • croxiscroxis I am the walrus

  • Morden279Morden279 Genius
    Funny how some of the thread titles look like they were written by 12 year olds... :D
  • ArikArik Galen's Apprentice
    Yay, one of my threads in on the Zocalo front page!
  • BigglesBiggles <font color=#AAFFAA>The Man Without a Face</font>
    I wish that "Paging: Biggles" thread still worked. I want to see what I was being paged about!

  • MorfeusMorfeus Ranger
    Hmm... I think that's some months before i registered, though i'd been lurking around for atleast a year at that time..
    [edit] Wha? July 2k? so i right after the time of that archiving then :)
    I thought i registered in August :confused: Probably registered to B5itf-finland's forums then and got them mixed up :) [/edit]

    Though i find it fairly disturbing that most of the time i can't remember something that happened 15 minutes ago, but still recognize some of those topics :P:confused:

    Different stored pages are from different dates. Check the date in the URL to be sure. The contact list, for example, is from August 2000.

    Fun thing to try: go through the index of the B5 forum and see how many of the threads from [url=http://www.firstones.com/firstoneshistory.php]this page[/url] you can spot!

    Wow, the temporary forums! I remember the day we crashed those! :D I think [url=http://web.archive.org/web/20010723230215/216.15.145.59/forums/Forum1/HTML/000144.html]this[/url] is the thread in question, and [url=http://web.archive.org/web/20010604061514/216.15.145.59/forums/Forum1/HTML/000151.html]this[/url] is the follow-up.

  • BigglesBiggles <font color=#AAFFAA>The Man Without a Face</font>

  • PSI-KILLERPSI-KILLER Needs help
    I can't believe records were kept of those!!! Vorlons in the head was funny I have a GeForce2 and you don't :P... hehehe

    I remember the old Sierra boards, a few days after I registered they cancelled the game. Yikes the frustration!!! I miss my early 20's sorta.
  • Vorlons in my HeadVorlons in my Head The Vorlons told me to.
    LOL! The scary thing is I still remember a lot of those threads. I can even remember a lot of the replies in several of them even if they don't open.

    Currently it's -23°C (-10°F) and this cold airmass from Siberia ain't going anywhere.
    In few days they should have nice -35°C (-30°F) few hundred kilometers north from here.

    Wow! Was cool to see all those old thread again. Ah the memories. I think I was a lurker for a few months before signing up. Found the forum round September 1999 I think and signed up February 2000. Amazing how many of us have stuck around really.
  • TanhauserTanhauser Ranger
