You need someone from the older generation for that, Baz, it was before my time. :)

It basically started when a group of us that had congregated on another forum decided we'd rather run our own, so we did.  There's still a few of us left here too!  ;D  It was much easier to get a forum off the ground in those days, though, as we weren't competing with the likes of Facebook, Twitter, and a million other forums.

We were originally called ezpc_forum and the administrator was a chap called N*ck who was an utter moron and put ridiculous constraints on us all.  Some of us decided to up sticks and start our own forum which was much more relaxed.  Members could talk freely about the virtues of pretty sheep ..... oops, have I said too much?   :blush:

Happy birthday to us, indeedy!  I would actually have put my head round the door yesterday but for a funeral and large portion of Shingles.  (https://www.pc-pals.com/smf/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fv300%2FMothballs%2FSmileys%2Fgappy.gif&hash=860abb551b4d1b87b4a5f78492ad85e7a6602fdf)
