Yeah, I don't remember any of that. Even to this day I only use like 10 websites. I don't even know how to where to look for other ones that might peak my interest, lol

Back then the only online I did was was AIM, obtain music/porn, look at Gamefaqs, and pro wrestling news

i only remember ogrish as a rotten knock-off. and i never read the dailyradar.

I can't really recall many specific websites frequented.

Bolt.com was a social site, kinda like a precursor to MySpace.
UltimateMetal was a message board for many metal bands, but I spent most of my time in the Off-Topic forum that broke away from the Opeth board.

I spent most of my time RPing in Efeds, talking on AIM/Yahoo MSG.
---

planetnamek.com was the best Dragon Ball Z fan site.
---

Home of the Underdogs.

I was a regular on the forums.

Oh yeah, I played this game called Utopia where youre apart of a clan or something and have to trade for items and gold and shit like that. I didnt get that into it, but it was fun while it lasted. I think its still up to play

Anyone remember the...I think it was a flash game? You played a stick figure trying to take down a crack house that shot his radio out.

That was an awesome website. Really opened me up to dragon ball z lore.

DBZ sucks butt.

dragonballz.com

Remember looking for the dragon balls?

Does anyone remember snarg.net? It's something else now but in the mid-oughts it was some bizarre page with no explanation whatsoever, but if you found the right things to click on it would take you to many additional levels of weirdness. Sadly, not much of it is viewable on archive.org.

There were a lot of random and unexplained webpages like that one that got passed around a lot. Blank pages with a single clue and an answer prompt, etc. This is one of the things I miss most about the old Internet. People made their own websites just for fun. Literally just for fun, and it was.

flashplayer.com (good newgrounds alternative)

Fuck, I was just looking for this site the other day & got legit sad when it appeared to no longer be around; I checked for "UGOplayer" too, still nothing. That was one of the very first websites I ever frequented & there was a lot of stuff on there that wasn't even on Newgrounds.

I don't remember any of those

biggest thing that comes to me atm is kiddonet, I used to play that one pumpkin flash game all the time

I can't remember the name of it, but I remember a similar website from the same time period, as well as ones that were basically webrings full of bizarre and nonsensical imagery and writing.

Um, last I checked, there were just two clone sites out there, both of which had inactive downloads and near-dead forums. The real, original Home of the Underdogs with active downloads and a huge ezboard forum community and an actively growing database administered by the founder of the site went down a long time ago.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Home_of_the_Underdogs

In fact, according to the Wikipedia article, one of the two clone sites had to shut down in 2014 also.
