So yeah. What have you guys been doing on the internet before falling across Kuribo64?
My internet life was a mess. My first time joining something was in 2007, joining NGEmu's forums. I had some interest in emulation, namely of the PS2 (and later on, the DS). I eventually made shitty plugins for PCSX2 and iDeaS (the latter was a pain to deal with), then released some modified versions of DeSmuME, although it was still mostly crap as I lacked experience.
In 2008, by watching random NSMB videos showing ARDS cheats, I fell across videos of edited levels. I thought it was cool and looked into it. Searched for the NSMB editor, found Treeki's webpage, which directed me to Jul and Board2.
I first joined Jul using the same username as I had at NGEmu, but for some reason the account didn't work. Probably crapoed the password. What little common sense I had back then told me to just make a new account. You guessed, Mega-Mario. Eventually joined Board2 under that name, but it was kinda dead there.
Tried making a NSMB editor, but it sucked. Eventually got my ass banned from Jul and Board2 because I was an idiot. In the meantime, the people in the emulation communities didn't know about it, and I wanted to keep things this way to preserve my reputation there.
A few years later, I managed to get unbanned from Board2. Also joined Neritic Net, which was a general discussion board with fun and friendly people. For a good while, I had good times there, but eventually activity started declining and the owner turned into a postcount-obsessed asshole, precipitating it into a quick death.
I happened to be a part of Nikoboard, which was originally meant to be Nina's board but was run by Kawa. For a while, we worked on ABXD there. At the same time, I made the first incarnation of Kuribo64, which was mostly my blog about SM64DS hacking. Later on, a board was added to Kuribo64, but it didn't get very active.
I also joined GBAtemp, mostly to post about my projects and get feedback.
Oh, and NSMBHD, which Dirbaio set up to give NSMB hacking more breathing space. I wasn't really interested into NSMB hacking much, but occasionally worked on some things.
Later on, I found Kafuka, joined, and gave some coding help to the AB2.5 project.
Oh and also got into SMG hacking, oblivious to the insane entry barrier. After posting screenshots of Whitehole, I was approached by the SMG2.5 guys, and joined the old SMG2.5 forums at Proboards. I archived the old dead Kuribo64 and, well, started this board.
