question i've been wondering for some time (20)

what was this website like back in the late 90s and 2000s? my japanese is still pretty shit so its hard to search much about it :^(

2 Name: Nameless : 2025/08/26 07:24

world2ch didn't exist in the 90s nor would information about it be in Japanese, but are you perhaps referring to the original 2ch?
I am interested as well, does anyone have any links to archives?

oh, im really sorry, i found info here because the owner was japanese but it attracted mainly westerners after some time, im stupid. i was indeed referring to the original 2ch
im really curious about the history of japanese text and image boards, but its very hard to search about them when your japanese is broken

Each board of 2ch would require it's own fully detailed history, each longer than the entirety of other BBSes

>>4 i have some japanese friends but none of them used 2ch unfortunately

and I don't know if you mean experience or what but this should cover that and before https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/2ch_Chronicle/2ch_History_Timeline

n apparently this was based on the amzeou source code in its early days, here is the source code to that, if you can even put it up of course

n http://www.mikawaban.com/etc/amebbs01.html this is proof they do look pretty similar. this could look extremely similar with some styling and html.

For what it's worth, here's a lot of 2ch threads:

I still need to find the futaba channel 9/11 thread, i had it on my old computer, not shocking since i downloaded it as an html not wayback, so it's probably lost now

11 Name: Nameless : 2025/09/15 02:40

Are there any old archives where you can search 2ch and Futaba threads?

i'm really interested in this
do you happen to remember any specific details of the thread?

13 Name: Nameless : 2025/09/15 03:17

There is probably too much to look through here, it consists of many threads from many boards organized by which server they were on:

A few funny threads translated into english

I accidentally found the original world2ch thread:

We need to make a new thread on the boardwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

18 Name: Nameless : 2025/09/26 12:09

I wonder if any remaining 2ch users from that thread (probably none still use it) would remember world2ch after 22 years.

19 Name: Nameless : 2025/09/27 03:23

I wonder if there any remaining w2ch users who still use this place
