Oldest post to date?

[racegod]

Can anyone find the oldest post to date? I'm really curious to see when it was.

Well, considering the old old forums are long gone - chances are it will be in ~2006 or so? Honestly not quite feeling like digging through posts to track them down, though!

After a quick search, I found this from MentaL back in Feb of 2003.

Didn't RaGEZONE exist since 2001? From what others told me it went down and got revived in 2003. Surely that's why there are no posts prior to 2003

 

[MentaL]

correcto, was using phpbb from 01/03.

fun fact: ragezone used to be a website for nude men wrestling each other, and the oldest posts can only now be found on the dark web

It would be the oldest "normal user" thread, however the thread posted by zMagenta remains the oldest to be found.

What happened around 2003 was the switch to vB as mentioned by MentaL
