Forums were a lot busier back then, inevitably there were more good posts. Much more in the way of utter **** as well but that tended to be tuned out as noise.

Also, it might be the first ever EVE is dying-thread.


The very 1st, but by no means the last. 100,000 years from now when we are all energy based trans-dimensional enlightened beings some brilliant energy based trans-dimensional enlightened A-hole will still be claiming that EVE is dying.
