This can be anything that you feel "ground breaking" or simply of interest to yourself or that you feel could be of interest to others. I know we've not really kept a good record of events in the past, but we're hoping that you can help us build a timeline of factual events in site history. Dates with Domains January 14, 2008 - undergroundnews.com registered April 01, 2002 - undergroundnews.net registered March 28, 2001 - undergroundnews.org registered August 05, 2005 - ugnsecurity.com registered The .net domain was registered as we had a squatter cloning the site with the domain, thus we snatched the .net and .org as soon as they where available after this infringement. ugnsecurity.com was also picked up to give us some bias over "UGN Security" Take a ride on the Wayback Machine Donate to UGN Security here.

What about hacker mind.net and all the different radio shows we tried out etc. We use to have fun. I miss all of you. _-={N3TMASK.COM}=-_ [MAXIMUM INTERNET SECURITY]

Not to mention, Crime deleted everything out of the gaming forum which was our big bread and butter as far as traffic went. Donate to UGN Security here.

I'll admit I was here a lot more when it was ad free; however I also don't pay the bills. Otherwise I'd say 25 August 2013, the day I realized this place was still around. I'll be firing up an IRC client shortly to test that out. Knowledge first, World Domination second

Did that happen or am I going crazy? _-={N3TMASK.COM}=-_ [MAXIMUM INTERNET SECURITY]

And the ads where a necessity; I pay about $500/yr just for the server hosting, and since the UBB project I've worked with since 1996 is practically dead, operation costs have to be covered somehow.
