I'm trying to do some historical research and just realized that this forum was established in 2007.

I occasionally read old threads discussing a previous version to this forum. Is the content that existed before 2007 accessible?

Can one of the mods provide a brief history of the forum?

Thanks!

    Hi!

    Actually we started the community in 2004/5 using an off-the-shelf software package called UBB (Ultimate Bulletin Board) and built our custom discussion boards in 2007. You can see many of the threads still that were started back then. Check out "Just Diagnosed", "Going through Treatment", "Moving Beyond" for example!

    Let us know if we can answer additional questions!

    Thanks for the reply.
    Yes, I found some very old threads started between 2004 - 2005 in the "Biographies and Inspiring Stories" section.
    What's interesting is that I see members with "Join" dates before 2004, for example these: Feb 2002, Oct 2002, and one member that says Dec 1999
    Hmmm...
