    Every few years I check in on an old message board I was active on between like 1999-2010. It’s still there. Gets maybe 1-2 posts per year these days.

      Those years line up well with SETI@home?

          Seti@home is. SETI itself is still going but not nearly as popular as the screen saver was.

          Those were the good days.

        Huge flood of nostalgia for my folding team on the [h] forums. Thanks.

        Although looks like they’ve migrated from PhpBB to ‘fora’?

          I don’t remember them ever using phpBB? Need to check the Wayback Machine later

              I discovered that site in 2009 or so, but don’t remember opening an account or regularly following it, though I did occasionally find links to it elsewhere.

              I’ve meanwhile checked and it seems they used to use vBulletin, not phpBB.
