How did you come across the cellar?
 
I found it via a link while checking out Photoshop pictures on Worth1000.com.

I think that you'll find most of us came into the Cellar for, from, through, because of, the "Image of The Day". I checked out the image, everyday for months, before I started looking around. :)

How I found the Cellar
 
A friend of mine, who post regularly, introduced me to the Cellar.

I found the cellar through a link from another bulletin board which, frankly, has got rather boring. I prefer it here.:beer:

When this version of Cellar came to life in early 2001, Undertoad announced it on the phl.media newsgroup (as the Cellar was originally a Philadelphia-based BBS). Been here ever since, more or less.

The Cellar is now online in yet another incarnation. Having lived as a local BBS, as the first public access the net news and email in Philly, as a telnettable BBS, and as a Javascript-based messaging system, it now starts its fifth life as a web-based forum.

Several users have followed it since 1990, when it grew out of the local messaging BBS scene. It held get-togethers that became highly popular and even spawned a marriage. Hundreds of users got their first email addresses on the Cellar. It was the subject of a chapter in an early book on the Internet.

Now it lives on as a friendly, literate community. There's no business plan here, no corporate interest, nothing but people who talk about...well, almost anything.

For those who like this sort of thing, feel free to stop by.

I was bored on New Year's Eve, looking specifically for an online community.

Ya'll can blame BrianR for my dubious presence here.

he told me I'd meet fun, normal, people...

(I'm agreeing with the fun and the people part..normal - well, the jury's still out on that one!)

i was led here by my god. it was ordained.

I was led here by the devil. He posted an ad for the celler on a slow day on another bulletin board I frequent.

i was planning a holiday with my ex, we were going on a weekender to the hunter valley vineyards and i was looking for this place called "the cellar wineries" and the search engine came up with this place when i typed in:

" the cellar, hotel, cofee shop"

i had heard about online communites before but never encountered one, so i took a look around.

The weekend went horribly at the wineries and we no longer speak to each other.. but now im a regular cellar addict.. so lucky you!

I stumbled across the cellar whilst looking for the bodies I had buried earlier..uh...oops.. did I say that out loud? no, really a friend turned me on to Idleworm.com.. and somehow I ended up here.. oh yeah! the picture of the camel spider.. YEESH! that will be forever imbeded in the 'ol brain pan..

Am I the only one that found it through one of tony's slashdot postings?

This was a few years ago now, not sure if he still posts.
