I've already known this. If you had roamed the site enough, or had stayed long enough, you'd have to wander into the GBAtemp wiki and find this out, at least I did. And me, not being here long enough to exactly know KiVan, I wonder what he's doing with his life now....

Costello tried to eat him alive, so he fled the website and created a new one... DS-Scene.net.

So a GBAtemp's brother exists!

He was on for a bit in October 2010. C'mon KiVan! Come back!

If I'm not wrong in GBAtemp history than when KiVan was admin the temp was a dark, dirty and smelly place were roms were hosted by trolls...

Thanks

I like how there is a japanese MMBN 3 on there xD.

Oh man. I remember when the forums first opened in 2002. It has been quite a while. Just looking at the picture reminds me we used to have polls on the portal. Perhaps it's time to crack those out again?

I remember it too, although I was only six years old at the time. I have been pretty much a lurker ever since...
As for the polls, I agree, it is time to bring 'em back!

But KiVan removed the ROM hosting when the forum community started up.

In this topic I remembered that I am a very old member.
I used to come here to check GBA roms and news and I still visit everyday to see the scene news even though I don't post much in the forum

That means next year will be GBAtemp's 10th B-day! Get excited people!!! I'm sure they will do something excellent =)

... Show us how the site looked in back on 2002?

GBATemp use to look very similar to this in 2002.

GBATemp

0434 - Dragon Ball Z - The Legacy Of Goku (U)
0435 - Hitsuji no Kimochi (J)
0436 - Jinsei Game Advance (J)
0437 - Spy Hunter (U)

I also remember these days, even though I wasn't a registered member

(Or maybe I was with another name? Because I know I was here when megaman battle network 2 came... and also remember the puzzle thingy in the first post of that archived page (with guru logi champ and all))

I used to think the "temp" was an abbreviation of temple or something.

Oh, there's more 2002's users still online than I thought

I'm not in the "online member's list" on that picture

I met KiVan before he decided to create gbatemp.
We were on some gba rom site, and we were bouncing from site to site when they closed.
He decided to create an URL with a fix name, and redirect many hosting servers to that url so even if they closed the url was still the same.

When he added the forum, I didn't register right away, so I'm only 746

Very true!

But it does make you wonder what's happened to them since their leaving.

Their souls were eaten away by SoulSnatcher on some other site probably...

A little surprised at how many didn't know about some of GBAtemp's history, but I probably shouldn't be. Old times, good times, times tables...wait.
