but a gentleman from another forum told me that in 1999 there were already shaving forums like this, https://www.badgerandblade.com/forum...#post-10520511

what would he mean that by the late 90s there were already shaving forums then????? rsvp.

He would be misinformed

The guy who started Badger and Blade was first a member here at SRP and that's where he learned to use a straight.

The original SRP was a yahoo groups site and I reckon it started around 2000. This site started around 2005 and I was a member on the yahoo groups site a few years before that.

[jamesbogosian]

that wouldnt make any sense because yahoo groups started in january of 2001 according to wikipedia and not the date that youre giving me! go to wikipedia and punch in yahoo groups......... it couldnt have started in 2000! so before yahoo groups, what was online regarding wet shaving then?????? rsvp.

I suppose there is a point?
Heresy from a gentleman from another forum from a one-poster in a 2 year-old thread who questions a senior Mod who has been here from the inception?
