I remember people debating about whether Fark or Something Awful was the better forum. Feels like a long time ago now.
Yeah, I know that I started on Fark around September 11th
The internet DDoS'd all the news sites and Fark was the only place anyone could get any information.
It's crazy that it's still around and pretty much unchanged.
