Found this doing a bit of digging.

  • 05MAY03 Dawn of Time Creation of SoyBomb
  • 27MAY03 Boards open.
  • 16JUN03 First webcam party (the one without audio).
  • Midsummer '03: Boards restructured from previous 3 folder format. Rants, Babbling, IB, other anime, and show suggestions added.
  • 04JUL03 The first Black & White bumper card suggestion thread was posted by Soultaker.
  • 07JUL03 Inuyasha is taken off the schedule. Mass riots insue. Action vs. Comedy war begins; "becuz anime is teh s uck" is born.
  • 09JUL03 Enlisted SwimMod CJ
  • 26OCT03 Episode 20 of The Big O is aired instead of the season finale. Number of new messages reportedly increased 300% during the twelve hours after the episode aired.
  • 26OCT03 Second webcam party; drunken chix0r insults fans.
  • 02NOV03 Adult Swim airs the beginning of the "wrong" episode of Big O from last week for about 25 seconds. Before Adult Swim can say "Sorry, we had to do it.", the boards already receive a few complain threads. And to a lesser extent, there are several complaints about the Weinstein episode of Family Guy not airing as planned, despite the PROGRAMING ALERTs that aired all week.
  • 14DEC03 A quiet Sunday morning, until a user going by the name USArmy decided to inform us all that the United States Army had found Saddam Hussein cowering in a hole about 150 times. This went on for about three hours until SwimMod_DH arrived.
  • 14JAN04 Boards switch from Prospero software to Lithuim.
  • 11FEB04 Viewer Valentine bumps air. Odin writes one to a girl at his former job, forgets to tell her to watch it.
  • Mid-March '04: Shark vs. Croc.
  • Late March '04: Name teh Cat (FireCloud II)
  • 30MAR04 Isen and Bast are modified
  • 01APR04 Mustache day. I need not say anything more.
  • 17APR04 Action Saturdays returned, which featured the debut of the Animatrix.
  • 18APR04 Sundays became all comedy, which included the debut of Popeye, (and the return of Ripping Friends).
  • 16MAY04 The "dreadful," but unsuccessful IGN "Attack". On this day we saw how important the mods were, and that no website can bring down the ASMB EMPIRE!
  • 19JUL04 Hockey Chicken launches.
  • 02AUG04 Adult Swim replaces ATHF with Sealab.
  • 04AUG04 Adult Swim starts airing commercials announcing that ATHF is "cancelled" and is airing the "final episode" on August 15th.
  • 08SEP04 New RP Rules were enforced and RP_Referees were created.
  • 26OCT04 No more RPs
  • 07NOV04 Super Milk Chan and Tom Goes to the Mayor broadcast. Simultaneously, nearly every avid viewer of Adult Swim's perception of the programming block is lowered.
  • 16NOV04 ATHF webcam poker Party
  • Like 8

I had finally gotten a lap top with dial-up and the first thing I did was sign-up to submit a name for their found dumpster kitty in March '04. :D 

I suggested 'Baka' because no one would forget it and everyone would probably enjoy yelling that off the roof at odd times during the day. :D

I thought it was interesting. Strange, yes, but it was at least something different.

The only good part of Super Milk Chan was the continuing story of the Ant Family. 

The trolly part of it was no one could say Super Milk Chan's catchphrase without filterdodging. :D

And people wonder why I’m such a zealot for streaming.

Funny in retrospect.

TGTTM was a bit polarizing even for me around the time but it eventually grew on me. It’s still ugly as sin, except these days I think I might like it more than Awesome Show. 

Milk Chan was weird, also cutesy. Taped it a couple times but I wasn’t that crazy about it.

Milk Chan ranked fairly high back when they did a Action vs Comedy bracket in ‘05. All lost to Reign.

Nothing beats a codpiece.

Because nothing wants to go anywhere near that codpiece.

Aw. I liked Reign. I thought it was pretty cool. Peter Chung's work has always fascinated me, and I thought it was cool seeing a different take on the legend of Alexander the Great.

Really? I had no idea. They must've been jealous of Phish.
