If you want to do a trip down memory lane before all these memories are lost like tears in the rain, I'll do it. Even further back, I think there's a bunch of us who've been 'here' or 'there' since the late 90s/Y2K. Flamencology definitely, Frank? Maybe Yabba and Peen (in his IHATEMUSIC classic heyday) ? I think DinoMikeSr's been around for a long-ass time too.
But what you're talking about is later than that, it's like mid-2000s I think?
Pretty sure that dmn23 and micwalt were around relatively early as well.
Something about Dolphins too

I think I probably started posting in 2001ish. Which is not long after I started playing guitar. I burned through a zillion monikers and legit can’t remember them all.
Dew Knot Hump was also a key part of HCGJ Classic. Also Feep (Frank Prince). Rumor has it that Munchy Box has existed since before the invention of guitar forums and will exist when the last on blinks out of existence. I’d also not be surprised to learn that Bones McHorror knows a thing or two.
The Golden Era was probably the first War Against Music. There were a couple later skirmishes also under that umbrella with the final gasp of that whole thing being Uma Floresta’s Reign of Terror. There was the whole Oscar Jordan vs whoever I was at the time Cold War situation. Which was kind of War Against Music adjacent.
After that there was the whole invasion of the fancy lads with what’s his nuts from Texaswith the “harem” and all the fashion talk which freaked people out.
The 2008 election really freaked people out and a lot of them wound up here. And/or at Live Suckus.
Then Jazz Dreamer Night Animal Hands played everyone off like Keyboard Cat and Dendy tried to turn HC into a viable business synergy or some shit.
There was also the MAPS war and various Effects Forum specific nonsense that I mostly steered clear of. And whatever the fuck Cool Jam was. And I remember a political subforum that got pretty out of control at points.

I was there like 99-06 ish. When Mark spun this place up, I was out of there.
