Well, I think that the first one is lost in the sands of time. Presumably it started back with Eric Noah's 3E News Site, long before ENWorld 1.0.
I guess I just meant all those on this board.

and onwards.
I'm kind of sad I missed the original Hivemind. I didn't get in until Mycanid and Frukathka lured me into the One Thread. I kind of miss Fru, I wonder what ever happened to him. Hopefully he's okay, wherever he is.![]()
That thread isn't the original, sadly... But all those names, they were the true Hive...
Skade, Arwink, Carnifex, Maldur, Randomling, Ao the Overkitty, barsoomcore, ASH, Steve Jung, Ashwyn, Sir Osis of Liver, Crothian...
Even Piratecat and Morrus posted there sometimes.
How many hours, how many hundreds of posts, how many laughs.
I feel old and sad now, people...
I don't know any of those people in that thread, Froggie. Must be REALLY old!
There were even older... It began in 2001. I quitted forums by 2003 (already with 5000 posts, I was in the top ten then), for personal problems.
Yeah, it really is a strange feeling to see a Hive thread completely peopled with people you don't know.
...
Wait. . . who are you guys again?![]()
We are all part of Piratecat's deranged brain, Frog.
A lot of them went to Randomling's House and took the hive with them. They claim it's the one true hivemind thread. A few pop in here from time to time to tell us we're not the true hivers. Some actually come by to chat a bit. The hivemind started here and continues with a new guard.
Randomling's House closed a few months ago, sadly...
