Default Pimprig Nostalgia (Ancient Archives)

I just found this, good for some memories of times of yore! Just go to web.archive.org and enter in the name of any forum, and it'll bring up some rrreaaally old stuff...stuff even more prehistoric than me!

Check it out...

Pimprig Archives

It's slow to load, and very incomplete, but at least I found that my true join date was April 6, 2002 (not August). A walk down Pimprig memory lane... I also found that Bigakita joined only about a month and a half before me, on Feb. 22, 2002. What a blast from the past!

EDIT: Dang, the "Forum Stats" link at the top left even works! Sheesh..

Yeah, that was fun. Honestly Coel, I think we joined a couple of years before that. If I remember correctly 2002 was the first transition to a new forum.

Pimprig started June of '01.

The forum reset and the new galleries were mid '02. I remember I had to re-register in order to post. I had like 30 posts in a year. B.A. had like 3000 in 8 months. lol

Has it really been that long?
I remember that race to 1000 posts I was helping BA try to get over that marker
I remember when the max ever on at one time was 5 users and any more than that would crash the site.

Oh hell yeah, remember what a big deal that first 1K was? I think it was Dave (DarkSamurai) that I was trying to beat. Of course, almost all of his posts were relevant, Duck and I were just throwing bull out there trying to get the count up. That was fun... Course, it wouldn't fly now but back then there weren't too many people policing the forum. It was a free for all.
