Ask the Berry

[Juneberry]

I'm making the first of these. Ask what you like.

What is your biggest goal for the next year?

[Juneberry]

Hm... Finish a project of some kind, probably?
Or just get my health in order. Actually, I'll focus on that for now. xD

[Progrumz]

What keeps you coming back to forums?

[Juneberry]

I think it might be mostly nostalgia at this point? I grew up in a time where forums were the main way to communicate online besides, like... generalized websites. We didn't really have much besides forums and AOL when I was young. So it's nostalgic and comfortable.

[Progrumz]

I agree!

What's the earliest forum that you remember joining?

[Juneberry]

Um, I don't remember it's name, but... There was a forum I was part of for fans of the dot hack franchise I think- I know I was using a forum that had an area dedicated to it, if nothing else, back in 2002. After all, that forum led me to kyat, the dot hack chat website I was obsessed with for ages after that!

[Progrumz]

Pretty cool! I know there were many, many anime forums in the early days.

What's your favorite forum software?

[Juneberry]

The one I'm most used to is proboards in terms of the name I remember easiest... but there's so many good ones now! Xenforo and Jcink are others I remember easily at this point.

[Progrumz]

I remember Jcink being a forum host that used phpBB. Do they have their own software now?
