Let's go back to the begining

Well it's almost a new year folks. Hard to believe thats it's 2005 already. It's hard for me to believe that I joined this place way back in 2002. After checking out the oldbie thread below I started feeling nastalgic. This got me thinking of how this place was started.

Anyone who has been here long enough knows the old story about how DJ and Doobie built this place because they responded to a guy named JediSith999 on the LucasForums. I thought to myself "Wow, I wish I could have read those threads." Then I remebered that this is the interw3b and nothing ever gets deleted.

So ladies and germs lets take a trip back in time. The flux capasitor is ready to go...and we are off.

It begins 4-04-02

4-04-02

4-05-02

4-06-02

4-09-02

Well there you have it folks. I'm sure there were other threads that helped this place form but it took me long enough to dig these up. Hard to believe a great place like this was formed by a few threads and some simple replies. Such a small thing and yet such a big impact. A history lesson for all of us.

It was a good read especially seeing those who posted "don't bother it won't work" (or something like that) :)

Im feeling nostalgic now, I feel like jumping onto the academy servers with the name '>JAS-Gnarshak<', the old Desann model, and whipping out my orange bladed old-school Katarn hilted saber.

;)

Nice post, nice post. I remember when the Academy used to be at the old site :D.
