We already got multiple timelines for the history of the Castlevania fandom.

For a NSFW version, there's this:

And if you ignore the furry junk and everything past 2005 or so, this hits most of the key points:

Maybe Tweeter would come back if we pulled down the Bobby Hill thing....

[Sindra]

Ahhh...I didn't know Clockwork Mansion had something. God I missed out on some awesome times. You guys'll have to explain to me the Craig and Technocop flame wars stuff sometime.


And The ED article only covers ICVD....sorta.

[snappleman]

Hahahaha technocop


FUcking need to go back to BBS style for the dungeon.

[Succubus]

I don't remember who the hell Craig was, haha. As for Technocop, the ED page has all you need to know:

"This technocop is not me, I would never say such mean things about a person. And if you noticed, I always use the name Technocop with a capital T, so this is obviously an imposter"

Damn, that timeline made for some interestin' readin. I still have a hard time believing one of the older CV sites got infected with the furry crap, though...

[Succubus]

It didn't. Like I said, you should ignore the furry shit and anything post-2005. The Clockwork Mansion isn't an old Castlevania forum/site. It was just something Darkmoon whipped together to go along with his Castlevania-related sprite comics. Later it became the forum for the Inverted Dungeon web site when it split from the actual Inverted Castlevania Dungeon forum. Then it merged with more web comics.

Well, unless you think the Inverted Dungeon is an "old" Castlevania site. Seems like just yesterday to me, and I don't know if it was ever all that popular beyond some ICVDers checking it out. And it's dead these days.

The ICVD site was awful, and it sucked, and I'm glad it's gone.

[Succubus]

It's still up. It's not a bad site. It even has a couple of my reviews.

Man what a stormy history is involved here...

[Abnormal Freak]

I'm kinda sadz my position as a staff member ain't listed on the ED page. :( IIRC, the Bootleg Dungeon came about 'cos Dev and I were chattin' it up on AIM, and we decided to do a new board like the original but with less restrictions. So then D'moon came aboard, he and Dev were pretty much the tech dudes who actually got things done, BUT I WAS AN ADMIN AND ICVD CO-FOUNDER :O until I pissed Dev off by spamming the shit out of everything and I think even banning him.

Ha ha, well, in hindsight, I kinda wrote myself out of that history for being a stupid asshole. :) Don't even know why I did it; I was 17 and bored. It probably had something to do with me requesting something with the Acmlm board, and Dev not complying (and me being too stupid to figure it out on my own), so I went on a tirade.
