"EoFF" was actually a ubb? Sweet
Actually, during January and February 2001, I think it was several uBBs. Because they kept getting RESET.
Off by two years.Quote:

Yes, it did, in 1999. Your statement that the vB is five years old is still off by two years, Peeg. xPQuote:

This vB, as stated in the announcement linked to by Yams, is now three years old. :) EoFF has consisted of 1 ezBoard, 1 UBB and at least two vB's.
Cid Highwind registered at vB's forums on 21st of July, 2000.
She's done us proud, so she has. *patpats*
I'm not sure, I either registered (the first time, as Astos) when it was still the first vB or the uBB. Probably the first vB.
And then it died. And I had to re-register on the second vB. As Fiend *roar*.
And then I died.
And then I came back to life again.
Happy Birthday, good ol' vB. *nods*
By the way, does anyone remember when the second vB came into existence? *tries to find out* *checks the calendar*
EDIT: March 26th, 2001. It was definitely just the first vB.
Happy birthday, vB! :D *throws confetti*
:gaymusicnote:
I don't really understand the deal with the "first" and "second" vBs though. What's that all about?
I don't recall the details exactly, but first the servers got reset when going from UBB to vB, then I think the hosting got changed so the vB was reset again, and then I think it was reset a third time for a reason I don't recall. All kinds of crazy stuff went on. It was cool.
Oh, the insanity. At least we're not having hosting trouble anymore, I guess. ;)
Yeah, we didn't bother with classy things like backups back then.
Why did you even do backups to begin with? As I understood it, the only things worth keeping are in the archives :)
Hey so I've been here for more than half the time the vb has been here. now in over a year it will be the whole shebang, mwahahaha (slight n00bness.)
The gaming forums are kind of like an FF library, so we tend to keep the threads if we can. Help and Feedback are also pretty useful for reference. But for the most part, the archives and also the staff forums are the main reason we do backups.Quote:

On a tangent note from this thread, see the latest announcement by myself. Yeah.
we've obviously been looking at vB3 to see if it's an option we want to look into
So how's it going looking into if it's worth looking into?
Have a good one vB EoFF.
I remember I registered at EoFF x number of months after the last reset and the post counts were still active.
