So what exactly were the original subforums and what subforums came when in the evolution of Anandtech?

I don't think anybody who has a Join Date later than October 1999 can answer this correctly. I know I can't.

Most of the subs aren't that old. I was here for the creation of the L&R and the Garage. I remember folks being happy/unhappy with the loss of L&R threads in ATOT. I may have mis-timed the creation of H&F. P&N was already here when I got here.

I think my actual join date was in ~2004-5. I'll have to search for my first thread to figure that out.

How do you do this? I've tried to use the search feature to find my first posts but it only goes back so far...3/19/14 is as far back as I can get. If you could give me some pointers I would appreciate it.

EDIT:nvm figured it out.

What the hell is the Discussion Club? How is it different from ATOT? I had never even noticed it before seeing the list in this thread.

Its a very strictly run version of P&N. No attacks, no flame baiting, no trolling.

Wasn't the Hot Deals subforum one of the first subforums created, if not the first? It was done to move the WMD's out of the main forum, which became OT. At least that's what I heard.

The mod forum was probably the first. Or whatever forum is created by default in a new installation of Fusetalk, and it was just renamed to something else. :p
