Want to see what MT.O looked like back in the day?
on: May 12, 2009, 02:53:29 AM
I have been playing around with this web archive site http://www.archive.org/web/web.php. Look here http://web.archive.org/web/20061026094948/forum.multitool.org/index.php/board,4.0.html  to see what MT.O looked like a while ago. I found an earlier day but can't seem to find it again. You can see how much this place has grown.

I remember those days!  :D

I'm glad you found that- it is a great reminder of where we came from.  Here's a bit of trivia for anyone who cares... this is actually the second Multitool.org forum we had.  Initially we were using different software but it didn't serve our needs, so we ended up restarting with SMF.

Short answer: IT. :D


Long answer: per dns and geoip, that's the location of the hosting facility where the server for this forum is located, or the location of its ISP. Any villains planning to take us down via an air strike can now proceed to target lock. :D

Thanks, Prime77, I'd been wondering what this site was like back in the day.
