This thread is to keep track of cobot's history. This could be useful for newbs and/or older posters who leave or get banned and come back. It could be interesting, I suppose.
I don't know if everything I know is chronologically accurate though, so you can help me with the timeline, if you like. I'll start writing what I know off of the top of my head.
