untraceable posts

[tanuki]

Hi!

Did you know that Clay's posts are untraceable?

Hm....

Do you mean in the search box (can't search #1)? I noticed that too.

It is probably a conspiracy so secret I don't know about it:

Prisoner: Where am I?
Number Two: In The Village.
Prisoner: What do you want?
Number Two: Information.
Prisoner: Which side are you on?
Number Two: That would be telling. We want information, information, information...
Prisoner: You won't get it.
Number Two: By hook or by crook we will. Prisoner: Who are you?
Number Two: The new Number Two.
Prisoner: Who is Number One?
Number Two: You are Number Six.
Prisoner: I am not a number. I am a free man. Number Two: Ha, ha, ha, ha....

Yes, I meant in the search box.

I'm a curious guy. I wanted to see what the first post ever in this forum was, which I guess was made by you. The oldest posts (from other members) I found were from 2004. Was that when the forums were created? (I read your interview and although you said the site was created in 1999, I think you didn't specify when the forums were created.)

There are some very interesting (and weird) old discussions I found.

EDIT: No, wait, I think the oldest posts were from 2005. 2005?

I am not sure if I did the first post or not. I installed Fusion I think in January or February 2004. Before that the whole site was pure HTML.

The oldest discussions I found were definitely from 2005. Could this have been the first thread ever? This is fun.

You have to beat Clay in a
game of kosho to see his posts.

It must have been January 05 then.

The content of jiro's post make it seem not likely.

I think Tanuki found the first post because I wrote:

Thanks, yes I have installed a neat content managament program, but I haven't finished entering all the data yet!

That means I had just installed fusion. Also the post ID is 0001.

I didn't realize it was 2005. Not that long ago!
