Old_Ben Posted August 20, 2002 Share Posted August 20, 2002 Yeah, there's a couple guys from 1969. You'd think they'd have more post for being around 30 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NerfYoda Posted August 20, 2002 Share Posted August 20, 2002 Popular belief is the Internet formed in the late 80's and early 90's? *shakes his head in sorrow* I guess popular opinion holds more truth than fact.. especially online. I suppose the Internet as you know it through Prodigy, AOL, & whatnot came about in the early 90's. The Internet (bridging different types of inter-networks) was formed in 1974 when TCP gateways were installed between the APRANET, SATNET & PRNET. TCP/IP didnt come about until about 1978.

Whoa calm down, tex. I just didnt want the folks around here to think the Internet was invented in the early 90's is all. I was a lil miffed about other things when I wrote my reply, so a bit of techo-eletism went into my post. Sorry for the tone in my previous post.

Rogue Nine Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 Admins can change the registration dates of posters. Those are most likely glitches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheJackal Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 #1: kstar__2 : Holy **** reduce the size of that effen signature! Its 10 times longer then your reply! #2: The reason it says 1960 or 1970 for some its because when we regrouped all forums (which were not all in a central hub before) some users had (for some odd reason) no registration date. So instead of just leaving them like that, the forum gave them a pre-set date which happens to be way before the movies where made Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
