FRONTROOM / BACKROOM 500k and rising.

[Kurando]

I was looking at the FRONTROOM / BACKROOM and noticing that they've topped over half a million posts!

Back in the late 90's and earily 2000 the original sword dojo forum program we were using was freeware and it had no way of moderating or modifying posts. So apart from me and Dan as admins there were no mods here. We knew we'd lose control of things fast if there was a lot of off topic stuff going on so we had an unwritten rule that no off topic content was allowed in the dojo. ...Which was all the more tricky because the game wasn't even released yet, but somehow we managed. We all basically just passed time talking about history & tactics and speculated about what STW was going to be like.

I'm sure glad that off topic content eventually made it's way on to the site and became part of the culture here, and to the mods who put in time to view and review those half million posts: sincere appreciation!
