Oh wow... yea that was a long time ago. But this website actually started in 1995, 4 years before this!

BlueBuddies technically started in 1994 as a database on a Commodore Amiga 1200. The first version was completed in 1995 and hosted via file server. The next step was ISP hosting for the site in 1996. An early, but recognizable, version of the site was running by 1998. BlueBuddies continued like this for a few more years (slowly converting the database to web browser format) and eventually it got its own domain name, PapaSmurf.org. It then evolved into BlueBuddies.com!

Ah, I see! something interesting I discovered is that, if you type papasmurf.org into your browser it automatically redirects you to bluebuddies.com. Did you intend for this or is the former domain still embedded in the code?
