That wasn't really part of how the "club" was formed but IIRC the the admin of this other club was shuttering/abandoning the website and allowed the new club to take over the domain.
The new 914club was built from scratch, ì was a beta tester before the 914club was officially open, that's why I have a lower member number than founding member SirAndy, |

The new 914club was built from scratch, ì was a beta tester before the 914club was officially open, that's why I have a lower member number than founding member SirAndy, The '914 Club' was formed in 1995. The '914 Renegade Forum' was launched in 1996 as part of the club. I was the founding member of the club. I personally launched the forum with the help of folks like Glenn Stazak, Perry Kiehl, Rich Johnson, Dave Darling and others providing content. I gathered data and did the html programming myself for all the pages and then added the forum for user interaction. It was in the early years of online platforms. Around 2000, I gifted the club and website to the folks on the west coast as I did not have the time to continue moderating it. If you look at the site and click on '914 Forum' you will see the initial post posted by myself welcoming all to the first 914 online presence. |

Thank you, much better detail than my post, I knew there was more to the story I just couldn't remember it all. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |
