That site is fun - look at the old Microsoft site <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
The Wayback Machine!!!

I remember that when I first joined the switch was recently made away from the overmind forums.
In thosegrey and black alternating forums there would be entire parallel coversations going on hidden, in the black posts with [color=black]. Not nearly as common here, I mean these were entire conversations with nothing to do with the actual topic.

Ah, the good old days of the black and orange forums, staying up late at night to read the next story from Humbaba in the Tales from The Frontlines thread, and getting excited about NS <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Kinda weird feeling knowing how much I was looking forward to it then and knowing how little I play now... though I've actually played a couple times recently.. so it isn't a lost hope.

This site's pretty fun, I'm looking at all the pages of the sites I frequent. Sites in 96 sucked.
<edit>Do they archive every site? I mean, even Online Journals are here.
It's good to know IMDb hasn't changed their site since <a href='http://web.archive.org/web/20001018024101/http://www.imdb.com/' target='_blank'>2000.</a></edit>

I searched through all my old files to see if I had a screenshot from back then, even one maybe with the forums in the background I could crop but nothing, then comprox comes along with his la-de-dah webarchive and throws all my hard work out the window.

I should've joined back then... I loved reading Tales from the Frontlines, but for some reason I just did not want to register. I thought res nodes were large onyx crystals...
Ahh.. the nostalgy.. back when we were busy envying the pt's and playing nstr2 turret dodge.
Back when Flayra posted a zillion times a day <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->..

And I still remember my harddrive crashing my map that was so close to completion.. im still saving up for a prof harddrive recovery team.
Amazing...even back then the suggestion and ideas forum had a post about "Most wanted new weapons". Give it up people! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Aaah, those orange forums were awesome, yay!
For those wondering when the switch to the blinding white forums occurred, it was around release day time; the old orange ikonboards couldn't handle the extra traffic that the release generated.
