Eric Noah's 3rd Edition Website

[Emerikol]

I started gaming in 1979, kid.

You beat me but not by much.

How many of you are old enough to remember the website? I was waxing nostalgic. I was really excited about the new game. I went to Origins Game Fair in Columbus OH and walked up to play a demo game. Monte Cooke walks up and introduces himself. I don't know Monte Cook from Adam. Okay great I'm in but he seemed surprised I didn't even know who he was. After that though I was following Eric Noah's page faithfully.

How many of you young pups weren't even born yet or were super young?

I was a member. I remember being really concerned when Eric transferred the site to Morrus.

Thank you, Russ, for keeping things alive.

* Hmm, not sure why my account says I started posting here around the 3.5 transition. I wonder if my old account got eaten and I made a new one or something.

There was the Great Database Crash that lost a lot of history.

I know for sure I bought the 3.0 books in 2001, but I don't remember if I have first joined the ENWorld forums or bought the books... my profile page says I joined in Jan 2002, it is possible I was just lurking before that time, but I also remember there was some server hiccup at some point which might have required to re-register. Anyway, I certainly found ENWorld after 3.0 had been released, because at that time I was on a hiatus playing D&D and I remember I missed the news of a new edition coming, and only found out in 2001. However, I do remember retroactively reading Eric Noah's "unofficial 3e news".

There was a big database crash in Jan 2002 and pretty much everything was lost. That's why there's so many "Jan 2002" accounts.

Wow. My profile said I’ve been here for 21 years and I’ve only just learned what the EN stands for.

Being in the city where it all started, I have been here a while. I met Eric once when I was in my Internet Warrior stage and he was still very nice to me.

I started lurking on EnWorld in like 2001 (I think in January, because I'd gotten the 3e PH for Christmas), but it took me more than a year to write my first post - on small dungeon design if I remember correctly.

Technically we are on that website. It evolved into this website and yes that is a link. I was asking who remembered it when it was the website. A walk down nostalgia lane.
