Title: When did you start browsing forums, and what was it first like for you?
Post by: Doodle on February 12, 2009, 02:26:20 PM
Title.
My first forum was probably NSider. That didn't go too well, since I was pretty much hated by everyone for being a jerk/acting retarded. :P
But I was like 12 at the time, so I kind of had an excuse.

Oldsider because of Smash basically. I have been a forum goer ever since, although I took about a four month break between Oldsider closing and coming here.

My first forum was Cheat Planet forums. I was drawn there by game help for ToS since I didn't know about walkthroughs. It was fun for a while, but I found NSider to be more fun. Their forum eventually broke down after their site was bought out by Games Radar. Afterwards I found out about NSider.

My first forum was technically Lego.com but I didn't know how to use it, so that didn't help.  The first actual forum I was a regular on was oldsider, and it took me a few weeks to get used to it...I was kind of noobish when I first started out because I thought people would actually care about what I had to say, but I quickly was able to get stable.

...

Although perhaps the Pickle Army was a bit on the irresponsible side.  Ah well.

Oldsider when I was 11. Exactly 52 days before it closed. I still got 1700 posts, though. Pokémon drew me there.

It was probably somewhere around 2000- 2003. I think I joined gamewinners first. I do remember that I tried to join Nsider first a long time before I actually did join but at that time you had to have an active subscription to Nintendo Power.

Oldsider, for a very stupid reason (it was before I got decent ADHD meds...)...

The screen caption contest for NP...  I had a good one too.

Late 06.

Signed up at Oldsider in 07. It was fun, but the speed of NSider was intimidating.

First forum I went to was http://fmc.animecity.nu.

Well, it was called Fake Moon Chat. I used to browse an old version of it in 1997.

I'm surprised you spelled "misspelled" correctly.
I congratulate you on that and that alone.
