I3 just split due to a disagreement with the staff as well... one side became ||board which is now gone and board2, which itself split into what you're posting on right now

Nice I saw that Xkeeper was banned there (board 2). I can infer that that's when he made this place (which is quite a bit more active).

Hopefully Xkeeper's awesome haxxor skills are enough to prevent future attacks.

There's a bit more to it.

Around I3, he made the first JustUsLeague (the real name of Jul), which then was consisting of me, the older members here, and Xk.

Then that was lost when The ||bass incident happened in I3.

But then Board 2 turned out to have the same 'idiot' problem I3 had, so JustUsLeague 2 was made. (This forum is in fact JustUsLeague 2, just that the name changed...)

I was one of the earliest members. Blackhole89 split with Xkeeper but this time we managed to evacuate the data of JustUsLeague2 instead of it being obliterated, so here it is now.

It went from a niche thing with just the couple of us to the great number of people, so it was eventually renamed Jul, even though technically the first JustUsLeague was that past one that was lost.

Of course Jul doesn't even really stand for JustUsLeague anymore... so few people even remain from those days, really.

This has been your random history lesson from Metal_Man88.

Just so it's clear, what we now know as Jul was created before the actual split with board2, then called Acmlm's Board II.

Seems hard to believe that it's almost been four years since this place was actually created. It's even more scary to hear the words "those days". Time sure flies.

Congrats on 350k though. It's pretty cool to see that this forum is still going strong compared to the other two which basically crashed and burned ages ago.

Eh, I would say there's still a decent number of us around, really... I mean, especially when you consider how long ago it was... I mean, I think Jul has already lasted longer than the entire first incarnation.

I agree, Jul is a really strong board activitywise, I don't see anything happening that could possibly stop that if things keep going as they've always been. Hopefully we'll get to see a million posts on here in a few years

Happy 350000 post-count milestone JUL! Throws 350000 cakes


By the way, What does JustUsLeague mean anyway?

The original Justus League was formed as a split from I3 because of a problem with morons on that board, I believe... it was invite-only and also had an admin approval system (similar to Retro's after 20 posts)

The board later went kaput after the fight between ||bass and Xk in early 2007... Justus League II was originally a similar principle but later became an outright split from board2

Additionally, it meant essentially "League of Just Us" (Basically, "Elite club only for cool people.")

Yeah, there's a number of sub-four-digit ID people still around, I know, but there's far fewer of them than the current population. The old exclusivity is sort of faded away, not that that isn't a good thing. Just sort of nostalgic for me.
