Can someone share how FCB came to be? All I can remember is something happened on the Beckett forums and alot of people came here when it was created.

There was actual a short-lived forum between Beckett and FCB. The user was mypens66, I believe, that started it.

So......Beckett was changing their layout and whatnot. Many folks decided to go elsewhere as the changeover sucked. BIGTIME. So this guy decided to start a new site and had a bunch of established members ready to jump ship. Chris got involved. Chris took the site you see here in a different direction than the other guy......and here we are 10 years later. Hard to believe its been that long.

So my pens made bmb.proboards.com and like 800 people migrated over to it.

Bmb was threatening legal action so I created this board as a permanent home.

Mypens and I were then quasi partners. Then he got some bad advice from his friends when he didn’t like the way I was running things. I explained that if he has an idea of what needs to happen then let’s do it. No ideas came. Then he emailed what had become 3000 users an attempt to lure them away and I removed his access. Cold. Cut and dry. I am not sorry.
