May 25th, 2007, a legend was born.

A lot of this will be subjective to the person posting and when they were having the most of fun on the board.

I want to be a little more objective. I can't really pinpoint specific dates and times but there was a period where we ranked fairly high on internet traffic. We were getting first page hits on certain topics like Stars Wars, Comic Books, and Lord of the Rings. All of our forums were getting high volumes of traffic. Also some of our individual themed boards were competing with theme specific boards at their own game. Our comic book forums being a prime example as we were easily getting the same quality and numbers as boards like CBR. We were constantly getting new members. Also the administration and moderators were more active along with the front page. The forums were flourishing.

If memory serves me correctly these would have been in the 2006 - 2009 years specially but I could be wrong.

Of course we have been on the decline in many recent years. There are a number of factors around that. One is that we have not been able to remove add and update forums that no longer serve a purpose or there are newer forums needed to handle certain topics. A lot of that has come with Administration being gone for longer periods of time. Which has also led to a lower Moderator presence as life gets in the way but we can not replace moderators who can't give as much time as needed.

We also need to desperately update the site to allow for more social media and mobile integration. Which this site is greatly outdated on.

And finally forums have general been on the decline unless they pertain to a certain niche area. For instance Halo forums, Book Series forums etc.

2015. But that's because I just recently started debating comic threads.

2013, back when shit was crazy as hell.

In this context what does "crazy as hell" even mean? Were there a lot of people trolling?

Those years were heavy in bans though.

I will note this surprises me. Merely because I have noticed that it takes a whole hell of a lot for anyone to earn more then a temp ban. Perhaps things were different years ago.

Things were different then because we had more activity and nowadays were aren't growing but declining. Mods are far more lenient than in times past.

That's when the MVF and AvF was on fire. We used to have a skype group as well. It was fun. It's too bad that all is over.

Whenever betagueze and asianhulk posted regularly was kmc's golden era. Hands down.

Though the epic back and forths by quan and rob should be immortalized as well.

Iraq war/bush second term were hilarious times.

It was that year we didn't have the wank thread about the best year of KMC. So, like, 1984.

Failing that, what Newjak said.

Yes lenient.

In other news the ocean is wet.

Every year someone creates a Golden Age of KMC thread somewhere 😛

Those truly were the days. I remember when I joined here in 2003, I was 14 and just a young ******* on these boards.

Now I am just an *******.

Whatever happened to Kes? Does she post here still?

Like you've ever kissed a girl ?

I registered in 2005, and I remember it being s very, very active year.

Older members will probably say 2003 and 2004 were the best years.

A few, but maybe none as hot as your '22 years girlfriend' buddy. 👆

You don't get with real women but in your head you're making out with girls left and right.

Not the OTF, guys- keep that kind of posturing out of here.
