What are some very old / nostalgic boards that are still active?

Post by JohnMiller92 »

I remember using phpBB way back in the day. When I was 12 or so. I remember seeing the GaiaOnline CEO post questions here asking about dynamic avatar creation.

Whenever I think of phpBB / vBulletin or IPB, it strikes a nostalgic cord in my heart. Kind of curious to see if any of the older versions of these are still going strong?

You mean software-wise? TextPad Community still operates on phpBB 2.

It's sort of the defining look of the internet for around 2003 isn't it!

It was a nice design. It served phpBB well :)
