I think I signed up in 1999 but lost my login stuff after a few years doing other stuff and came back as Rockstar. My old email was mindspring.com
What I remember about when I first signed up was everyone marveling that Skybird had over 2,000 posts when most barely broke over 500. He’s also toned it down some too, remember when people would get ticked off at him because his responses to anything would always contain days worth of reading. |

For those who weren't aware of the near disaster in Oct 2020, I have updated the SUBSIM History with a summary, starting October 2020.
TLR It was really stressful! Quote:

At that time it seems my forum name was Kai, after a website change (where all names were lost) i became Fish, and after another forum change Fish was taken by some dutch guy, so i changed it to Catfish. https://web.archive.org/web/20000816...n.olm.net/ssr/ I guess my first 'Login' must have been at 1997 or so. Or a bit earlier, at deepdomain/olmnet?

Actually, I think the first url was something like www.computron.net/~nstevens/simreview5.html And then it was http://www.brazosport.cc.tx.us/~nste...imreview5.html olm.net came shortly after. So you were in on the ground floor, my friend.

The server couldn't contain all of Jim's posts and nearly melted down, like Fukushima?
Wow, hard to believe it's been that long!

This also represents a milestone for Whac-A-Squirrel, established in 2016 (can you believe it) which has been an important part of Subsim now for five (yes I said five) of those 25 years! "That's remarkable... I have an ointment for that"
