What forums you were a member of before knowing Reddit?

in no real order - digg, slashdot, facebook (if that counts), a forum website named postcrap that an acquaintance developed but has long since died, various newsgroups, etc. probably a few others I cant remember, I've been "online" since 1994.

Soooo many. Like real forums. Dedicated to a specific hobby, for example. But hey, now I'm a member of some "old school" forums again, I already quit Reddit months ago.

Bungie.net forums, baby! Back before they closed the old site to make a new one.

I was super into Digg. Even had a blog post I wrote featured on Diggnation.

I loved Tribes 1 and 2 a long time ago, so I frequented the forums of Tribalwar.com a ton. You get to know the members, their personality, it was a fun, if a little rough around the edges community. During the reddit black out, I thought I'd check it out again, and holy shit it's an absolute cesspool now. Conspiracy theories, hard right MAGA worship, rampant antisemitism and racism in general. Holy crap, I had no idea, and frankly it was better off left as a pleasant memories from years gone by.

Serebii, BZPower and Mask of Destiny (Bionicle), played Transformice and a Rumble Fighter, chatted on msn and mIRC, 9gag.

Some local BBSs I’ve forgotten the name of. Then Neowin and Macrumors. Still active on Macrumors, well, as much as work allows.

I was pretty active on XDA Developers and Mobile Device related Forums (Phandroid, mac-forums)

Since it hasn't been mentioned yet: Facepunch

Digg, Slashdot, Facebook, MySpace. Before that, I was just using a forum called Tandjent for Meshuggah and metal fans and GearSlutz.
