    The forums I visited in those days was threaded, with trees to view commons. It was a proto version of the way Lemmy/Piefed/Reddit comments work, you just could only see one comment at a time. I never liked the flat style of PHPBB and the like.

      Really? I don’t have any memories of forums like that, only the old school flat threads with one comment at a time in chronological order.

        It wasn’t a common format for sure. It was the forums for BYOND, a “game engine” specifically designed to make multiplayer games easily. You could think of it as a proto roblox.
