Oh boy. If someone could remind me when .NET started up then I could give you my age back then. It was a long time ago.
I have to confess - reading this thread reminds me of how proud I was, and still am, of the kind of board that we ran back then. Many of us on the staff were older than the average user and knew that it was our responsibility to provide a safe internet destination for kids who were, in the end, all discussing a silly online cartoon. We were pretty strict about content and language and went after abusive users pretty hard, and I remember how upset that got some people with us. But reading the ages here reaffirms that we were doing the right thing at the time.
Anyway, sorry for that bit of nostalgia.
Also, subsilver still rocks.
You'll probably not get this message, but thanks bro. Y'all really did a good job.
It's coming up on ten years in late January, right? That's when the Homestar-only sections were there, though. The "social" area of dot net started up some time later in February or March. I remember reading zealousdemon among others in a thread arguing whether or not the Iraq War should happen.

It's nearly four years on, but I got it. I really appreciate it.
Every once in a while I think of socks and vinegar... even though I have nothing to do with this website. It's nice to check in here, even if lots of time has passed.
