Section II: A Brief History of our Forum

Early Online Groups: The Past

Way back in December of 1999...it was that month when I created my first online social faction called the 'Suspicious Cops'. This group, which was made within a message board on the gaming site Gamefaqs called 'Random Insanity', lasted for five years.

After its long run, I decided to disband my group and venture into creating an online community with more freedom to do as I please. I wanted a place where we could role-play, share stories, and socialize under much lighter rules.

And thus one day I came across a free message board site called ProBoards. I suppose you could say the rest is history! ;D

A New Home, A New Name: The Present

The Ethereal Nation Online was opened to the public August 1st 2005. Originally called 'The Souls', this forum started with five boards: a Staff board, Ash's Cafe (a social board), Midnight Artisan's Library (fanfiction board), Sacred Battleground of Forgotten Souls (Rpg board), and the Outer Grounds (links and affiliates).

Ever since, the forum has undergone countless changes in layout and names, members have came and gone, but the fun experienced by the members and myself hasn't changed since the first day.

The Ethereal Universe Unlimited: The Future

Upon receiving the newest upgrade to the ProBoards software, our community has decided to do sort of a reboot. Under the new name 'The Ethereal Universe Unlimited', we are continuing to improve the community with its newly expanded design and system.
