Was this the very first thread on the drome from 2001? Man this is history making stuff right here!

Finally I found the first thread of the forums from 20 years ago! WOOOOOHOOOOOO!

*IndigoErth* · 01-07-2021, 06:32 PM

And no mention of how old you were?

And just how many hours (days?) of Googling did it take to find it.

*CyberCubed* · 01-07-2021, 06:33 PM

I found it by clicking the archives. I was only 15 when this thread was made.

Wait, what do you mean the new forums Krang, I'm confused. Will we have to register to the new forums Krang? I'm so glad you're finally changing the forum software. When is the launch? Are we losing our post count?

I'm excited, just when everyone thought you had abandoned us! I was not giving up hope. Some dromers made fun of me but I stuck by you and now it all pays, I'm happy. Now that we're getting new forums I do have a suggestion Krang, can we get a forum to discuss The Next Mutation exclusively? Thank you.

Cubed, look what you've done. You have people thinking that Krang is upgrading the forums.

*Shark_Blade* · 01-07-2021, 07:21 PM

Cool. So what new forum upgrades we gonna get?

XD

Stop necroposting old threads you dolt

*frank_one* · 01-07-2021, 09:01 PM

This is the ultimate necroposting, congrats. When this topic was created I was 15 and I had been surfing the web for probably less than a year.

*DarkFell* · 01-07-2021, 11:01 PM

So, who's willing to bet that ol' Cubed got bored again?

Seriously Cubed, you need to go play outside more often.

*CyberCubed* · 01-08-2021, 06:38 AM

Due to covid, I only leave my home about 1-2 days a month. And some months I do not go out at all.

*The Deadman* · 01-08-2021, 09:42 AM

Cubed certainly does like to show his age when it comes to certain things....

superstaff · 01-08-2021, 11:29 AM

CyberCubed, you scallywag.

Yes. Congratulations on the epic bump. There was another Drome board that was even older, but its history could not be exported, so these were considered the "new" forums when we had to start fresh.

*IndigoErth* · 01-08-2021, 01:50 PM

Although for the fun of us who weren't around, could the Internet Archive Wayback Machine possibly find it?

*Vegita-San* · 01-08-2021, 02:23 PM

the first turtle site I found was long before mine and even the official turtle site. sometime in 94/95 I think and was only text. had some useful then info on it.

How popular was the forum back then compared to today?

~~Leo656~~ · 01-08-2021, 05:54 PM

Much more.

This place is an absolute graveyard compared to 2004 when you'd have like 30-40 threads popping at once, non-stop. Now sometimes days go by where there's barely any activity at all. There was never a single "dead" or dull day back then, not even on holidays.

Of course, back then you had about 50+ people posting daily, Now it's just the same dozen or so people. And we can't let new people in because they're always just Banned people with fake accounts, and a lot of older or more active people just get fed up and leave after a while, like Prowler.

2003-2005 was The Best. It's hardly even the same sport, anymore.

I mean... it does happen sometimes, but it's usually the result of a single account spamming out of boredom.

But, yeah, I remember the days when new threads had to battle each other for relevance or risking falling off the Page 1 of the discussion groups.
