The "What Are You Doing This Moment" Thread

I started on a psytrance forum in 02. Have posted on various other music/band forums, car forums and bass forums over the years but my heart remains true to UM ❤️

I started posting on the Disturbed forum for a little while, circa '02. I also posted on the TotalWar forum for a little while. I joined The Gauntlet at the beginning of my senior year of high school, and that's when my metal knowledge really started to grow, although I was already off the nu metal shitwagon by then.
 
I started posting on a racing simulation games forum in 2004 and I basically learned english there. The forum is gone now, it was called RaceSimCentral.
 
I got my first start on Team Fortress Classic clan forums that someone from high school told me about. After that it moved to music related so I went to TabCrawler forums back when it was super active and then went to Amplitude-X (small set of people who left TabCrawler) and here and SMNNews forums when I started getting into metal. Then I went back to TC and then Amplitude-X until we called the admin out on lying to us and he shut the forum down. I'm on the New Standard Elite boards but I don't go there much now. For some reason the admins refuse to put a social forum there and I don't want to talk about death metal 24/7/365 so I remain here.
 
Deviant art and a poetry forum for me, then newgrounds and a snake breeding/exotic animals forum. Then I did a play by post d&d forum (guildportal faerun taverns) before moving to music banter, finding them too gay, and settling here as my mainstay. Still check out the music banter occasionally but I think everyone really needs to get laid there, the cyber flirting is obnoxious.

/b/ was an intermittent thing until about 5 years ago.
 
Not sure which was my first forum, either the Blind Guardian forum which I joined 1999 or some Counterstrike forum for 3D modelling/skinning (modding a mod :p ) which should have been at the same time as I started playing CS in 1999 too.
 
The first forum I was ever truly a regular of was an emulation forum. I made some lifelong friends there that I went to visit last year (they live in the US). I've also been active on various gaming forums and an INTP forum (though I think the MBTI is kinda bullshit now). This is really the only forum I check up on anymore though.
 
tangentially related but I hate how the card comment/rating feature on gatherer has been broken for literally years :( I used to love reading people's comments on cards even though I barely even play the game.

Guess BarrysWorld woulda been my first forum.

Apparently it died in early 2001. When I was 11.

Having been online and received all kindsa cruel and unusual messages since I was a child makes it pretty hard to feel sympathy for the attention whores that get trolled on Twitter and shit.

The Gunbound freeboard was the first message board I posted on. Posting on there, playing Gunbound, listening to Black Sabbath and watching porn pretty much took up my whole summer when I was 13.
