Doom Metal Alchemist Posted May 4, 2020 Posted May 4, 2020 VH1's Rock show. My Internet addiction is all their fault.

Naraku4656 Posted May 4, 2020 Posted May 4, 2020 Probably nick.com considering I was only 13 when I joined AS
cyberbully Posted May 4, 2020 Posted May 4, 2020 ....MTV or VH1....I trolled both, but don't remember which I went to first. Came to do the same to ASMB but kinda found out ASMB had cooler people than those other sites, so I tamed myself a bit 1

That was my thing. I like music. I hate reality shows. 1
Sawdamizer Posted May 4, 2020 Posted May 4, 2020 (edited) Zmud BBS, some Dungeons and Dragons forum that I trolled DMs Edit - it was like 95ish Edited May 4, 2020 by Sawdamizer
SwimModSponges Posted May 4, 2020 Author Posted May 4, 2020 Man, I didn't come here until... Let's see here: Dan's JP3 Page, JurassicToys, LAWebTech, AvPGalaxy, [as]mb, (((unevenedge))).
molarbear Posted May 4, 2020 Posted May 4, 2020 technically it was Chevytalk (I think?) but I never posted on those, I just bought parts for my car off people I got a set of Hooker Headers off a person who ordered them and never used them for $120 Not sure what they go for these days but that was about half their normal price back then
Gyaos Posted May 4, 2020 Posted May 4, 2020 TeenSpot, a website intended for teens that was actually filled with people who were much older than they claimed to be. 1
ZeroStralem Posted May 5, 2020 Posted May 5, 2020 First one I can clearly remember was a forum for my guild in SWG...which I never even ended up buying SWG. I'm sure there were ones before it though.
QueenoftheDorks Posted May 5, 2020 Posted May 5, 2020 Bolt.com I cut my teeth on both their club forums and general boards. it was my first social media site too.

I like music. I hate reality shows. Fair point. I think when I was a VH1 board member they hadn't yet turned into reality TV land anyway. They were all about Behind the Music and 100 Greatest songs / artists of _______________.
blueraven1999 Posted May 5, 2020 Posted May 5, 2020 (edited) ASMB was the first forum I joined if Yahoo groups don't count. Either Nightwing group or Sonic group were the first groups I joined when I was about 21 or 22. Edited May 5, 2020 by blueraven1999
Dark_Cloud_Overhead Posted May 5, 2020 Posted May 5, 2020 It was either TV.com or the ASMB. I think I joined both around the same time, though I never really posted all that much at TV.com.
💜 mahala_la_la Posted May 5, 2020 Posted May 5, 2020 Some cartoon message board that started in 2003. Probably doesn't exist anymore. 1 1

Nytlyt Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 I forget the actual name of it, I wanna say it was battle.net but I'm not sure that was it. It was the lobbies in the command and conquer online multiplayer matchmaking. Different servers and they all had chatrooms. So, not really a "forum" but it was a place to interact w/ RTS nerds in real time while chat while planning matches. 1
Bouvre Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 Probably a skateboarding forum. I was a pre-teen back then, and years after joined so many forums it's impossible to remember the exact name of the first, especially since the forum wasn't affiliated with any major skate companies/magazines. Pretty sure I just searched "skateboarding forums" and joined each one on the first page of search results.
Top Gun Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 PlanetDescent, which was part of the GameSpy Network of gaming communities. It was dedicated to the Descent series of 6DOF PC games from the mid to late 90s. This had to be in...oh, 2001 or so. I wound up becoming a staff member and doing news posts and file uploads and such. The site eventually started to break down when its older coding wasn't compatible with GameSpy changes, and IGN has long since killed off the entire GameSpy brand, so it only exists in the Internet Archive now. Some of the staff made a new site that carries on the name, and there are still a few die-hards who hang out there, but I haven't been by in a while. There's another Descent-related forum I joined in 2002 that's still plugging along. ...damn I'm old. 1

Nytlyt Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 I think I made an account on the Neopets forum way back in the day. Recall getting banned from trolling or harassing at least a couple times. Eventually got my account permanently suspended because I was exploiting the player-to-player bartering system. Basically, you could put something in your shop; a very popular item, set it at a certain price, wait a little bit, then change the price. If another used had clicked on your shop page link, they would go there, still see the low price, go to buy it; but, during purchase you've jacked that priced up, other user is informed they got the item and also notice that the price had gone up significantly. Naturally, it, didn't take long to for enough people to cry to the help and my account got frozen.

avec Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 [asmb], unless I'm forgetting some things related to aim chats
PhilosipherStoned Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 Embarrasing as it is.. I believe it was a Japanese Inuyasha forum.
Gina Szanboti Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 AOL's roleplaying forums. They had an Incoherent Babbling section before asmb did. People posted ongoing interactive stories for the characters they were rping in chat, posted funny bits of rp sessions, argued about shit like in Rants, etc. Despite all the grumbling, the Rainman architecture was still the best forum software I've encountered, as far as ease of use, editing, and organization go. I don't think you could post pics (I don't think we even had avatar icons), but that was mostly due to bandwidth issues. I miss that whole scene a lot. It was a pretty decent bubble to learn to internet in.

Back when I was like 10 I would play MoHAA a lot and was somewhat decent job invited to a few clans, couple of them had message boards. But, you know... I was like C-Tier clan forums so maybe like 10-20 people on them and most people just talked about server hosting and game nights for competitions.
PhilosipherStoned Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 Not sure how I ended up on the fan sites message bored the entire site was in japanese... I remember I ended up saying yes to some girl that wanted to try a long distance relationship from NC. Or like two diff girls that were really flirty.. Of course I was like 14 at the time or something. I almost forgot about it completely and I was going to say ASMB.
wacky1980 Posted May 6, 2020 Posted May 6, 2020 i think it was some random thing on angelfire back in like 1999. don't remember what it was called.
