Guest Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 To see how far we've come in six years, have a look at what Earth-2 looked like in 2004. The internet rules sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 Heh! I was thinking about the old design just the other day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 Good lord! That looks crazy. The forums look awful. Wild. Funny because it was before my time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stavros Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 That's from two years before I even joined, I never saw that design. Weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc20willsave Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 Yeah, that's kinda ugly but, then again, I'm sure it was Mike's first website so I'll cut him some slack. Considering he turned that into this is awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 I forgot how many designs and tweaks the site went through. Here, check 'em all out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 I vaguely remember the 2006 design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 I have a soft spot for that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 Agreed. I still like that one. Not better than currently though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 That 2006 shot is within days of my first post. I can tell because I'm pretty sure the Silent Hill debate was one of the first things I was a part of here. Christ, I feel old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 I know a guy that was sort of here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 And then you disappeared like most of the Oratory castoffs. I had to drag you back kicking and screaming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 I'm not a cast-off, I'm a trendsetter. The trend just hasn't occurred yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuaveStar Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 It looks so basic. The exact opposite of now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TFG1Mike Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 It is nice to reflect though oh what was. Even though I only joined 2 years ago... some of the old designs are cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc20willsave Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 I vaguely remember the 2006 design. Having looked through all the old designs, that's probably my favorite. The thing I noticed is that there is a staff page until about the end of 2005 and then it vanishes between the Nov. nd update and the Dec. 14th.

Doug Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 Heh! I was thinking about the old design just the other day. I remeber looking this stuff up a few months ago. I love the black design and the forums. I dont know why, But I have a soft spot for beginning websites. I think its very cool to see how the site and forums have evolved. This is such a great place. Thanks Mike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 It's funny because that screen shows the first episode I listened to. 24, the interview with James. About a topic, at the time, I couldn't have given a shit about. And yet I was hooked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicolette Opal Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 This wayback machine business makes me very, very nervous. Not re: Earth-2, just in the general scope of internet things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 A lot of people agree with you. If I recall, they've been sued due to copyright violations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicolette Opal Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 All I know is there are parts of my internet life that I have killed, and I would like them to remain dead. I have not ventured into these archives to see if they've preserved any of this, but the notion that it might be out there somewhere is not something that I enjoy considering. At least they don't have keyword search for these archives. Yet. If/when that happens... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
