Nice. Looks like I joined in December of 2004 under my old username after lurking for a while. Kind of fun to look at the wayback and recall a lot of the old posters. Wish the wayback had a more comprehensive backup, but understand why it doesn't...

Wow this is terrible history. If you even look at the top banner, it says 1999. I believe I started in early 2001. I think what you’re referring to is when JazzFanz merged with realgm for a period of time, then broke back off again.You created your account on May 19, 2011 (shows up below your name on a desktop computer).
The jazzfanz.com website and message board was created in 2004, I think. @Jason would know the date for sure. I became a mod in Jan 2005, and I think the board was less than a year old at the time (but I could be wrong.) The board was created after Jason and others got frustrated with the realgm board that many of us had been using prior to that. There was a substantial exodus from realgm to jazzfanz at that time. I think I myself registered for jazzfanz about 3 weeks after it was founded. (I waited for a few weeks to see if the posters I liked most were going to bail on realgm or not. They bailed.) I can't recall which people who are still here joined at that time, but speak up if you did! I think there are maybe 10 of us still around. Anyone who's been here since 2004 is truly old school.
As the last three posters have alluded to, there was a massive board crash in 2010. All data was lost. Everyone had to re-register for the site. So anyone who has a May 2010 or Jun 2010 join dates (again, visibly on the desktop site) was undoubtedly around prior to the Great Board Crash of 2010, and in my opinion also deserves to be called old school even if they aren't quite as old school as the 2003-2004 originals.
Bring your *** out of inactivity.

Well, that old link has reference to a Jazzfanz copyright dating back to 1998. I was under the impression Arroyo brought over a lot of rabid PR fans to the board, He was signed in 2002. Wasn't the board around before then?

Bordy! We've missed you!
Wait, what? According to the post just above yours, Jason himself joined in July 2003. So I was only one year off. And there were only a couple people who joined before him but I'm not even sure how that was possible since it's his site. You're not one of them unless you've had a name change I don't know about. And what's this about Jazzfanz merging with realgm? I've never heard of that before.
Yes, I definitely remember the Puerto Rican invasion. So now I'm confused. I must be off in my chronology.

I had an account before that. I recreated my account in 2011, my original account was phippsj24. I was here in the Arroyo days and remember the PR influx

Senior moment? The memory goes first as you get old, colton.
I wasn't around; I just read some old posts about the PR invasion and how obnoxious some of those people were. Outside of HH and his unrequited love for Niang, we really don't have anyone like that...just posters who are generally annoying all the time. Did anyone join because of Allen?

I think I can ascertain my earlier days from when I was a junior in high school about, when my name may have been Shinnokxz.. around 2005 perhaps
Let's pump the brakes on joins due to locality fan stigma of players- these offshoot hobby forums have been pushed aside by team subreddits, of which /r/nba tends to be the second to third most active on the site. Those are what absorb the player bandwagons these days
