Dang, this has been boggling me forever. I'm always wondering how we have like a new member everyday. Exactly how did you discover the JCF? And of course you probably discovered J2O the same way, but of course, I could be wrong.

Reply with how you discovered the JCF, and what month-day-year you joined

I discovered JCF....: Because on J2O, there was a news announcement that JMMB was going to die, and so F.Quist, Nebula, and other people decided to make a new JJ forum. First they asked us, the people, what the name of the forums should be. Eventually the forum was made, and that was about March 22, 2001!

I officially joined as JJ Tublear* TA UR, about a day after the boards were finished being built. And I joined as that name on March 23, 2001!

I finally joined as this name and current name on April 26, 2001!

Some of you new people might be confused because on some of the Admin/Mods' join dates it says January 2001. Basically I have no clue what that means, but I'm guessing It's when the forumz were started to get built.

I was on the JMMB, then Dethman killed that. About two days later, J2O opened up the JCF, so I joined that. Simple enough.

Join Date: May 19th, 2002

Well deeaar, so long ago already? More than two years...
And I forgot again to make that day a holiday. *snaps finger*
That was a fated day, not meaning to sound cheesy. This place has given me a LOT. Might even be dead without it, who knows, who knows.

Anyways. I discovered this place a little more than two years ago. I've gotten JJ2 about 4 years ago and stopped playing, then started again, so I wanted to download levels from J2City (.. that was what it's called, right? ) again, only to find that the site was gone. Sooo, I began searching for a new one and found J2O.
And since mother has been all over "forums" lately, I just wanted to try this out.
And I apparently came to.. like it. XD;
I became the top poster within few months.. ehehe.

I found J2o in December/January 2001-2002, browsed a bit, dled somestuff. Finally registered in August. I explored a bit and found the JCF also in August (about August 03 2002) or something, but I found it a bit strange and confusing so I ignored it. Then, September 1st 2002, a few days before school started, I decided heck with it and registered. The end.

I think I heard about this site over a game of JJ2. I don't remember, that was years ago.

I migrated from the JMMB after it's demise. And I found the JMMB by finding J2C, and I found J2C by searching for Jazz Jackrabbit stuff.

1991> Born ->(three years pass) Download JJ1 Demo ->(four years pass) Go to CompUSA -> Buy JJ2 -> Look at Manual -> Go to www.jazzjackrabbit.com-> Go to Links-> Go to www.jazz2city.com-> (one year has passed since buying JJ2) Go to JMMB-> (probably 5 minutes pass) Register-> (1.25 years pass) JMMB Dies-> Go To J2O ->March 22, 2001-> Go to JCF-> Go to Sleep->(one day passes)->March 23, 2001-> Register for JCF-> 2004

I think I originally found J2O by typing in "Jazz Jackrabbit" in Google. Same with finding J2C.

I found the forums when I found out that Forums were the same thing as Message Boards. If only the link on J2O said Message Boards, I would've been on the JCF much sooner.

When the JMMB died I was kind of lost for a few months, and then I heard about the JCF so I joined sometime in 2001.

Hmmm, I remember doing a google search for JJ2 levels and game accross J2O, saw the forum, joined. THE END

JMMB died, I heard they were starting forums here. I joined. The end.

Hmmz.. JMMB was suddenly dead.. few weeks later i checked here and joined it.. i think

I started playing JJ2 when I was 4 years old.
Then I interested playing it and when I finally
(5-6 years after) get the internet I started to
search JJ2 sites. Then I found J2O from google
and I found "forums", there I (oh dear! My limonade
just fell to my desk! ) joined to forums .

Well..as for me,Back in December 2002, I was introduced to J2O/JCF by Fawriel, whom I actually first met on Side 7's messageboard, then at one point when I was talking to him over msn, he mentioned some enemy that was going to be used in some JJ2 Fangame, and he asked me then if I knew the game Jazz Jackrabbit 2, then I said yes, and that I am a fan of it and have actually played it offline since 1996. So then he went all yay! and gave me the link to J2O. So I registered at J2O and then registered at JCF. Good ol' times.

I knew about Jazz2 City for a while (from jazzjackrabbit.com), and finally went to post a level. When I sent the level to Wakeman, he said he was no longer accepting levels, and gave me the url to J2O. And then I figured how to find the JCF from J2O... I mean, what TOTALY MAD FAT HACKER SKILLS!

~DS

I used to drop by at Jazz 2 City every once in a while (and registered at the JMMB (under another name), which died before I could think of making a post). I moved on to visiting Alienator's Universe Jazz, because people uploaded levels there as well. This site had a link to J2O if I recall correctly, and after going there a few times, I noticed it had a pretty, shiny forum.

Came over from the JMMB.

You may have played Jazz since 1996, but JJ2 came out in 1998.

Oh yeah, sorry, made a post typo there. I keep forgetting JJ2 was relased in 1998 and not 1996..thanks for reminding,but yeah, I've actually been playing Jazz 1 since late 1995. Started playing JJ2 in 1999.

well, I registered on the JMMB, and a few years later saw this flashy .gif advertisement for J2O (if anyone still has that, PM me with it please...) and clicked it, it seemed rather boring, so I never went there, finally the JMMB closed, with the message "erm...fatal error?and dethman goes on and on about how there's not enough christian content anymore, blah blah, so I register at the JCF a bit later...

I discovered the JCF in January 2001, using an ftp client.

I was the first to really register (assuming quist's account was made in the phpBB install process), after being the first to click a link in an IRC meeting of people discussing the fate of the JMMB or some nonsense like that :P

j2o

People were posting on the JMMB about it being about to die and advertising the JCF but I didn't want to join because I figured it was one of the many forums/sites that kept popping up but nobody liked since J2O was "the" be all end all fan site for JJ2. But then the JMMB died and I registered here.

If you ever went on the first version of the J2C & JMMB sites, those sites were basically where the first ever JJ2 fans were from, and met, I guess. Back then all the hype was when the full version of JJ2 would come out. So people were busy playing the shareware version of JJ2 in the mean time, which I think came out in 1997.

So basically I guess teh whole JJ2 scene started in 1997. Or something. I unfortunately didn't join till 1998, basically a few weeks before the full version came out.

You know what I think would be funny. I want to hear what Dethman would say if he saw this site, or joined it, I know he would comment about JMMB or something. More likely than not, he knows about this site, or what if he was playing JJ2 under a different name that nobody knew, whoa...

It would also be funny if the JMMB returned. I seriously doubt it will.

J2C and JMMB were certainly not the first sites. Before J2C there was J2W, for example, and before JMMB there was EMB.

So people were busy playing the shareware version of JJ2 in the mean time, which I think came out in 1997.

So basically I guess teh whole JJ2 scene started in 1997. Or something. I unfortunately didn't join till 1998, basically a few weeks before the full version came out.

Fortunately, I have this all written down. Let's see...

J2W: January 1997
J2C: January 1998

JJ2SW: April 1998
JJ2: May 1998

JMMB: December 1998
EMB: No idea, but it was around for a while before that.

So, yes, the JJ2 scene started in 1997, but you couldn't have actually PLAYED JJ2 until 1998.

I was just looking for new places to stalk people and came across this site.

People were constantly mentioning J2O, and I eventually asked what it is, and found the site. Pretty much the same went for the JCF; I didn't notice the Forums link for the longest time. Actually, I lurked for ages on both, never finding a need to post. But I was there - sort of.

: You must come, Derby. Look at all of the poor souls who have either sworn to death or have been mortally wounded by the obscenity of others:

: The last thing they will see is the cryptic action of the hyphen enclosed in parentheses.

: Excellent. We used the picture of the graves to fool you. We are very much alive and obscene.




: We did not say anything.

A sad, sad day for the JCF.
