Who Created Anime Forum?

[TheThunderBringer]

I thought of this only a few days ago...the sight I guess you say I'm 'from' is a small sight that I've been with since nearly the beginning, so I know the creators (at least, who they are) and most everyone on the site (not persoanlly or anything).

So...who's idea was it to create AF?

[Miss Moonlight]

I'm assuming Kaitou Ace?

[Eris]

AF's show runners are

Kaitou Ace




and

Princess Minako

[Gjallarhorn]

Nighthawk created it, and passed its ownership on to Kaitou Ace shortly after.

[Eris]

Are we speaking of AF, or the forums that turned into AF (i.e. AG and TMdC's boards) and who supplied the seed population for AF?

I'd assume he means Tuxy and AG, which then fused to become AF.

Ah. Didn't know that. =O

Whatever came first...so Nighthawk?

EDIT: lolwut? This isn't my account.....-TTB

That is rather interesting I always thought Nighthalk was just asked to administer the forum by Ace or something. I never would have picked him as the creator of the site.

[Vyndrasta]

Spydr? ...is nighthawk?

You're all pulling my leg..... @_@

[Princess Minako]

Nighthawk created SailorVenus.org which actually was populated by people from Tuxedomask.com. The very first Tuxedomask.com was created by Spyder. Although he left the site to Kaitou Ace and myself and we were the ones who made it succeed.

Ace and I then created Animeglobe, which turned into AnimeForum. Now we have several sites with their own niches.

AnimeGalleries - Anime Images
AnimeWallpapers - Anime Wallpapers (gasp I know)
AnimeGlobe - News site
Anime Forum - Forum
Anime Lyrics - Translations and Transliterations of music from Animes, Games etc.

But I do love how often people leave me out of owning/creating the site. Thanks for the acknowledgment Eris.

[Miss Moonlight]

Well, a lot of people here (including me), have only been here a very short time, and therefore probably just don't know the entire history of the forums and who actually created it/them.

[DOOM!]

I wouldn't know. By the time tuxedomask came in conception, ytmnd.com was my place for funny pictures.

[Lavos]

God created Anime Forum.

Ah, thank you, very imformative. You guys seem to have some serious roots o.o

[Skylar1]

lol, I find this quite amusing actually.

Never before have I used a forum that has been around for so long that it has it's own history of origin story. This place probably has some dark ancient secrets buried deep within the hundreds of thousands of threads and archives.

In a way, it's kind of cool to uncover piece by piece the mysterious past on this place. I can't wait to see what we'll learn next time around.

[GameGeeks]

Best way to do that would be to grab a virtual shovel and start digging. Randomly, is a good place to start.

We should write a book called "The History of AnimeForum.com" and sell a copy to every single member that has been a part of AnimeForum. We'll make tons of money. Assuming that we can threaten them into buying the book, that is.

Just make a copy of it mandatory for membership. ???. Profit!

Actually I find this bit of history amusing! I wouldn't say a book, but a pamphlet would be awesome.
