    Google is doing this thing where you can search its index that dates back to 2001.
    I looked up EC and found it in its early days!

    It's crazy though..

    Not sure if the link will work but
    http://web.archive.org/web/20010724045152/www.emptyclosets.com/


    It's perrrtyy interesting..

    EDIT: Well, the link didn't work for me.. soo
    go to google, and click on "try a search from our early days"
    and then put in emptyclosets
    and then at the results page, click on "View old version on the Internet Archive"

    Wow, look how far we've come. We weren't encouraging people to be openly gay?

    It's amazing how far it's come, from a petty little advice page to a full message board. Is it even the same website? Interesting...

    Yeah, I saw that :[
    It's weird, you don't really see anything like that on EC nowadays.. so you'd think that EC is a hidden website when seven years ago, apparently it had enough rep to attract assholes :/

    Maybe people are changing..
    maybe the mods are doing an excellent job..
    maybe it's because you have to register to post now.. haaaa

    Either way, in my opinion, after reading the legitmate EC-ers of the past's threads it seems that EC has accomplished one major goal over the years, and that's letting others know that they're not alone.

    (*hug*) for EC

    Whoa-that is so wierd.
    The internet has changed so
    much in 8 years, you'd have thought
    more like 20. I bet the assholes who
    were posting hateful comments are
    now coming to terms with themselves
    and becoming (non-asshole) members
    of ec and then out gay people. It's also
    great how acceptance of GLBT people has
    grown in the last few years.

    I like to skip right back to the earlier pages of posts, from years ago. It's really cool to see who's still around.

    "By reading this message, you will all die horrible deaths due to the fact that you
    are not normal"
    We will all die horrible deaths because we are not normal, just because we have read this message...? So what happens if we don't read it?

    Trolls didn't have any better grammar or sentence structure then as they do now...
