What was Heartland Rev. 1.0?
Err, that's it, really...

"heartland rev 1.0" (or just "heartland" as it was known) was this forum's first incarnation.
it used an old version of the phpbb bulletin board software - phpbb v1.4.4 - which had less features and wasn't as flexible or as friendly to use (or as easy to admin!)
it even lived at a temporary address for a while too, until i had decided that it was going to take off and was worth carrying on with...
http://heartland.dc-hosting.net/
when i moved to this permanent URL and subsequently upgraded the forum software (just over a year ago - the upgrade took place april 2002 i seem to recall. the move a little earlier than this) it felt like a revision of the version number was the right thing to do... just call me an I.T. geek
in much the same way the "shot rev2.0" videos took the first version and added to it, "heartland rev 2.0" represented a bigger, faster, friendlier and way more powerful forum experience - and it came in a selection of very pretty (and probably very cruel) colours... even though most of you still use the red & white scheme

I'm getting a bit nostalgic, those were the days before I started posting.

Aaah, that was lovely. A bit like being huddled around the old wireless. I'm glad I asked now.

Before my time, that one I'm afraid. Looks "cute" though.

I have to admit it's taken me years and years to finally discover them for the joy (if that's the right word!) they are!! but I'm getting there...

ahem...they still jangle...
HOWEVER!
I think that my former criticism may have been a little unfounded...
I'm sure I can find it in my heart to accomodate said jangle...
