Title: The genesis of the board? Post by: RichardNixon on December 04, 2005, 12:44:11 AM How did it all come together? Was it done from school? Did people need to be computer/web savvy? How did it come into being?

Title: Re: The genesis of the board? Post by: Ignatius on December 04, 2005, 02:45:59 PM Whaddya want Nixon?? :hihi: :hihi: If I'm not mistaken, Jarmo launched this site in 1996. I'm not too sure about the board though, but the site's been up for a while. Title: Re: The genesis of the board? Post by: jarmo on December 04, 2005, 03:09:54 PM Site was launched in October 1996.
I added a message board in August 1999. Closed it after a while because it didn't require registration and a few people decided to ruin it for the rest. Opened a new board at Ezboard in November 2000 and we moved to a new server running YaBB in January 2002. In October 2002 we switched to YaBBSE after a server crash. In the summer of 2004 we moved to a new server and to SMF. /jarmo Title: Re: The genesis of the board? Post by: RichardNixon on December 04, 2005, 09:22:38 PM I bet Axl read this board.
Title: Re: The genesis of the board? Post by: journey on December 04, 2005, 10:49:43 PM I bet Axl read this board. Or he had someone read it for him and then fax a report of it. He's probably too busy with work to take time to read through the whole site. Title: Re: The genesis of the board? Post by: jameslofton29 on December 04, 2005, 10:52:50 PM I bet Axl read this board.

He's probably too busy with work to take time to read through the whole site. He, and other bandmembers, check 4 or 5 gn'r sites regularly and this is one of them.

Post by: RichardNixon on December 05, 2005, 12:02:23 AM Let's take a guess of who Axl could really be...my guess is D, because we all know what a huge Bon Jovi fan Axl is.

Title: Re: The genesis of the board? Post by: ppbebe on December 05, 2005, 01:13:43 PM I believe it, although he probably prefers this site. The debates here are more intellectual than they are at other GNR sites. Says you cockboy. I see what you mean. Absolutely. :-\ Ever seen ARV's debates? They are only available here, if I'm not mistaken. Title: Re: The genesis of the board?

Post by: jameslofton29 on December 08, 2005, 05:13:51 AM Who came up with the names for the different sections, like, Bad Obsession, Dead Horse, The Jungle, etc...?

Title: Re: The genesis of the board? Post by: ARC on December 08, 2005, 10:58:51 AM I think it's pretty cool that Axl mentioned this board in 2002. And Jarmo's name! Lucky bastard. :P
MYGNR have never been mentioned by Axl, have they Madison? Ah well, maybe someday... Title: Re: The genesis of the board?
