Malkieri History

Okay, this is my best attempt at recalling the total history of Malkier, #malkier, and everyone in-between. The dates are probably way off in some (most) cases, and dead on in others. If you remember something differently, feel free to email me corrections.

A Few Notes

Don’t accept dates in this as 100% fact. They’ll probably change after a few people get a good look at them. People with a better memory than me.

Dates in this document take the form MMM DD YYYY (eg: Nov 11 2004). This appears to be the only semi-international format.

Most of the events before 2002 happened on irc.scifi.com. This place ran a hacked-up version of IRC and the server software contained many, many exploits. Most of which were found by members of #malkier. They never got fixed, so we left. This server also had little (zero) administration. This meant that the toughest person on the server was the toughest person, period. It was really rather tribal, actually.

The “services” and “stats” programs mentioned before 2004 are probably Cygnus IRC Services and OperStats. Both were originally written by skold and I later ported them to TS5.
