1-0-0-1-0-0-1 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 QUOTE (The Owl @ Feb 12 2011, 12:37 PM) I've been on TRF about 4 years now, but TRF was formed a couple of years before that... But a question for the real old members.... what formed first TRF or CP? And weren't both kind of formed from the whole TRInet debacle? No, CP has been around for longer than us, and were up at the same time TRInet was up. TRInet went under, and CP survived. TRF had nothing to do with TRInet at all. We just kind of appeared on our own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rummut71 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 QUOTE (ghostworks @ Feb 12 2011, 12:14 AM) different shades of the same despotism it's all good, though... Let the record show I am happy to share my schizophrenic posting style with the folks here as well... I try to keep the Dutch to a minimum. If it was not for 'IPS Driver Error', you would not have gotten such a treat in your lives. You lucky dogs! The moral of the story is 'Do not fix a leaky faucet with ten blowtorches, a gaggle of migrating geese, a package of tube socks, knowing what is best for people and a small thermonuclear weapon.' Baby Aesop would agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rummut71 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 For an interesting chunk of history, click this: Beef - It's What's For Dinner You can spend a LOT of time reading there if you never have been and are curious about the legendary 'Board War' that you have heard about... You also don't have to be a member of teh evil CP to read. Go to the lower left corner and change your skin to 2112, and have a good and sometimes hilarious read! Get your popcorn ready.

jamesrsutton Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 When geddylee.net closed I started rushforum.net (no "the" and of no relation to this forum). I have backups going back to late 2000. A few years later I decided to make it not just Rush related, opening it up for other topics and changing the name and domain to randominteraction.net. I decided to give up hosting a forum and dealing with trolls in 2008 and closed up shop. The early days were great. I met my wife in 2002 on my forum and many other wonderful people, the Queen included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
