Here at Gamespot, joined originally back in 2007 but didn't start posting till 2009. I later made a new account (this one) since I didn't like my old username.
3D something........ back in 1997.
I recall being a member of several Amiga BBSes during the late 80's (via Genie).
It was an old BBS board called 'The Swamp' back in the mid '80s in the South Bay area of Southern California.
Here at gamespot I left my first mark around 2003 ish I feel old
Back when the old format existed where it had ps2 GameCube And Xbox classic categories
Heck I believe when I joined n64 had a forum
Along with ps1
And they had stricter rules
Gamespot 2008, but I actually posted on TV.com in 2008 first for a while, until it started feeling too dead/boring in 2009-2010. TV.com used to be connected with Gamespot until April 2009.
Definitely 2010 though was when I really started posting here.
I wish TV.com could be revived somehow. This site too also needs some revival juice. TV.com was wicked fun with its leveling system, same goes for this site.
Feels like the internet's gone too downhill in general, feels like everything good just keeps disappearing.

That site is on life support last time I checked. Hell this site is 100 times more active than it even.
Yeah it sucks that various sites just go down the crapper for some reason.
Game Revolutions back in 2009 is were I started posting in the forums. I been lurking on Gamespot back in 2012 but never really sign up until early October to be part of the community and so, here I am.
P.S I'm also on Anime Community.
You should had gotten here sooner, 2012 was such a great year for this site!!!
off topic but what happened to the OT Anime thread? It suddenly disappeared today.
WHERE IS IT?
It's like it was deleted.

No problem. We'll just make more animu threads and by the end of this month, we'll have another sticky. Better than waging a mindless war. @johnd13 you've got a lot to learn from me.
Perhaps, you are right. It's just that someone said that my drill is the drill that will pierce the Heavens so I got overly enthusiastic.

Don't believe in the Kamina who believes in you. Believe in me who believes myself.
But Kamina said to believe in me that believes in Kamina that believes in me who doesn't believe in you that believe in yourself.
I don't believe this.

I don't believe this.
At this point, this is the only comment I have : Kamina is dead.
I refuse to believe it! I will only believe in the Kamina who believes in the me who believes in myself who believes in I alone.

I used to get modded there plenty of times because I told some people they have shit taste in certain shows. I was kind of surprised why I was never banned or even suspended for that matter, though I'll admit that I was an idiot sometimes if not most of the time but we all "start off" somewhere in our young teen years. I stopped logging in back in 2010. It's pretty much dead now.
I was very late to the internet party and didn't really get into online communication until 2004 in my last year of high school. I had the internet in 2001 (?) or a year earlier, but didn't get DSL/cable until early 2005, when I first joined Gamespot.
I haven't really joined (and contributed to) many forums since. The one's I keep up with are The Board (some ex-GS members who were a part of a union I frequented), Endless Backlog (same as previous, just different ones) and I just recently joined TruckersReport.com for the mere reason of it being directly related to my future career and it being a highly-populated source of information that I can dig into and possibly even get positive support from if I ever have issues and cannot contact my company/etc.
I've dabbled with others (like TDH) but most forums these days seem very like insular communities, and are honestly (and unfortunately) on the way out socially on the internet.
I don't know if you would consider chat rooms to be forums. AOL chat rooms, 1997 for me I had a 1200 baud modem at the time, and chat rooms were about the most my bandwidth could handle.
Probably the first actual forum I used was Sherdog.com (MMA) back in 2002 or so. I haven't taken part in their forums in years though.
