1999. everynametaken Send a noteboard - 06/01/2010 01:22:41 AM
I don't mean readandfindout.com. How long have you been hanging around with the same crazies who frequent this site? Starting with the wotmania.com days, if you were there. You can just state your answer in the subject heading.


There were no IDs. When one made a post they could post with any name they wanted. The flame wars were great, particularly when someone would use someone else's name and set them up.

I actually left the site for a few years after Winter's Heart was released so I missed the big crash and all that jazz plus the development of unique user IDs. I think I cam back around four or five years ago, maybe a little longer.

If anyone remembers way back to 1999 I was using Eagle Eye then.
But wine was the great assassin of both tradition and propriety...
