Happy Birthday Entmoot!!!
One year ago today, on September 18, 1999, I started this board after teaming up with Darth Tater from the Jedi Council. The original title was "Benjamin's Tolkien Board." (Exciting, huh? ) That night, I tapped one of my friends from a MUD, Ryan6233, to be the first moderator, since Tater wasn't online. Later Tater and Ryan (later demoted) were promoted to admin over a board that was largely empty. Today, we have 442 members and a strong base of regular posters.
Feel free to use this topic to share your favorite experiences at Entmoot, or your favorite posts, or whatever. For my part, I share with you my collection of "Entmoot snapshots": the main page as it changed over course of the past year. Benjamin's Tolkien Board: http://www.tolkientrail.com/images/boardfromtater.jpg One of the failed layouts, captured here in a screenshot! Tater thought that Ryan was my alias, but he quickly edited his mistake! September 25th, 1999 This one is a real gem. I'm very glad I saved this. Look, there's 19 members! General Messages has 63 posts! :lol: Entmoot: November 3rd, 1999 The first appearance of the now classic Entmoot banner (but look for a new one soon!) January 8th, 2000 February 1st, 2000 March 26th, 2000 April 2nd, 2000 April 25th, 2000 June 23rd, 2000 July 6th, 2000 July 20th, 2000 August 29th, 2000 What is most striking to me is that in just two months, we have jumped from 360 members to 442! |
