Hmm. I started at GameFAQs (I've had like five accounts there) in like 2002, then I joined a fantasy baseball forum, and from there, I found IF. I tried to make a mock fantasy baseball forum thing, but it didn't work out. After that, I used phpBB for about a year, then reverted back to IF.

I believe that this is a list of usernames I've gone by (on other forums):
- DearAbby4Games (or something like that; on GameFAQs)
- GameFAQsGuru (I think)
- [My first and last name] (when my dad found out about it, he almost went ballistic <_<) (on that fantasy baseball forum)
- hyperdude (started using this username on an online game site, playsite.com ... I only ever did checkers lol)
- Hroels (I 'played' nationstates.net, and this was the random name I came up with... When I joined IFSZ and the official support forums, I thought you had to use your board name - I made a board for my "country" lol)

As my sig says, or used to say... I am known as hyperdude at every other (active) forum other than IFSZ.

Complex history eh?

My history with boards is a long and charming tale.

When I was about 8 or so, I walked past a neighbors that were doing construction. There were these narrow plank looking things on the ground. I asked them, "what are these?"

The father looked at me, smiled and said.

"Those are boards, son."


And the rest is history.

The first forum I went to was the starwars.com one, but I didn't post much and I don't even remember what my name was there.

Years later, I started going to a forum for the game "Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds". I'm known there as "Jon Rolos" (The whole name is made up, just in case anyone thinks part of it is my real name) and I'm still fairly active, though for the community not the game.

And now a few months ago, I started going to the SZ and I haven't stopped coming yet....obviously.XD

Started on Forums to learn more about music (Slipknot boards specifically)
Found IF through that
Started my own board
Googled for skins
Found IFSZ
Been steady here for 3 years, but really nowhere else.

My first username was Child_of_the_Corn, which later evolved into CornLord (along with many other changes, but I eventually came back to my original).

When I was 11 I joined the cheatplanet forums, now 1337planet
I then found out about invisionfree after getting banned there, I posted at the support forums daily until SZ came into the picture, I posted here a lot and got RA 2 times and lots of posts/e-friends along the way.
Then i was staff at ZE and posted there a bit.
Now I only go to SZ and do web development.

I joined Neoseeker in January 2005 and I stayed active there for several months (till June 05'). I made some friends there and one of them asked me to join their forum. It was hosted on IF. Then it wasn't long before another friend also asked me to join their forum. I noticed that they had both had the same skin (the default one) so I went to investigate which led me to IF. I don't know how I came across IFSZ exactly but I'm sure that it was through the support forums or something.

I joined a Pro Board forum around April 05, which got hacked a few days later. They moved to IF, which then I began to be active, and I clicked the InvisionFree link to start my own. Some time later I got Gmod there, and later Admin.

Somehow I found the SZ and I became RA in (I think) around March 06, I quit a few months after that due to active schedule and I later got the PM to be Reviews Staff in June(as soon as I got it I ran around my house jumping up and down hehe). I stepped down from Reviews to RA around November (don't quote me on that) but a few days later I quit from that too.

I was also admin at ForumStyles for a period of time. Those are probably my most major IF experiences, so I'm not including the small staff positions I've had beforehand and such.

What a damn hectic 2 years.

Well, I pretty much went looking for a free forum board to make a Diablo II forum and while searching, I found this rather cheaply coded forum and used it for about 2 weeks until at the bottom of the page there was an ad for InvisionFree, claiming it had the #1 free forums or whatever, so I made one and used that board for a while, noticed activity had gone way done so I came looking for some style, ended up here in 2003

To sum it up.. My Own Forum --> IFSZ --> Many, Many Since :D
