I've been searching many years for the fabled first Newgrounds BBS; and to no avail.
It wasn't until today when I searched for Newgrounds in the Internet Archive beta that I found a link on the front page that took me right to the mythical place...
This, is what I saw:
Now I may die a happy man.
A truly prophetic sig...
Lol thread names were better back then as compared to now.

Kicking it old school. The threads look more interesting for some reason...
It's hard for me to believe I was only five when Newgrounds' first BBS existed.

The oldest thread in there is from 2000, the op's are from 1999.
Almost wish I could take a time machine and force my 9 year old self to go to the BBS.

That is actually the second BBS, which came right after the one I just posted.
Check the dates if you don't believe me: You won't find a single post from 1999... Actually, here's the very first post of the BBS you just posted:
http://www.newgrounds.com/oldbbs/forums/
1/0/1.html
As you can see, it is October of 2000, whereas my screenshot is from November of 1999 - Nearly one year earlier.
Amiright?

I once stuck my dick in an electrical socket... and do you know what?
My Dick looks pretty when it glows int the dark! :)
Getting back on topic...
Here's another shot of the same page, but this time the bottom:
Note the old Post a Message thingy at the bottom. The big white part at the very bottom was for the body of the text.

Indeed, it´s astonishing.
I find myself actually wishing that more forums were actually like that - no real bells and whistles, just pure unbridled fun. Doesn't seem to have the activity that we have today, though.
thats not Newgrounds, that's HOLYGROUNDS.
May i ask for thee sacred link to the holy old BBS?

Me three! +1
So what's the first thread ever on the BBS?
Pretend not to care about anything, but be bothered by everything.
You may be fast on the roads but it's no use on the track.
