For those who remember what it was like; waiting for the demo was one of the most agonizing periods in the history of das org + during that time (because of a disk quota problem) Off Topic posts were strictly forbidden.

We chugged along for a year until eventually at the time the demo was released the dojo had about 50-60 regular users + I have no idea how many transient users there were because get this: registration was NOT required and no ones IP's were logged! (You just entered your name at the start of each post and that was it...) Hehe, talk about a hard ticket for an Admin; thank Gawd I had TheRonin working with me at that time or I'd have been in big trouble!

-It's also of note that das org was not the first fan site: Clan Towashima had us beat by two full months + Clan Totomi, and the RSG opened their sites at roughly the same time as the org did. It was quite a big and often raucous community even when S:TW was still pre-Alpha.

Off the top of my head, the only peeps left from that era are: my-damn-self, Erado San, Nelson, Magyar Khan + I think Satake and nokor are still lurking too.

I see, we should give u lot a title, old gaurd are the usual suspects, and the ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, how about gods?

The only two who might be considered truely "Godlike" (at least in my eyes) are Magyar Khan and Erado San, but the rest of us are basically just a bunch of melon ranchers who don't know when to quit.

The real point is that there are so many ace guys who disappeared over the years + it's really a shame that none of the newer crowd will get a chance to know them.

BTW Zen Blade is another guy from the beginning who is still around, but he is definitely a melon rancher! http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/wink.gif
