I’m not so old but I do remember back in 2000’s I was using a lot forum mainly for small strategic online games where the only way to talk to people was though these forums.
Later, the main forum I did use is a French Mac community forum which always exist.

I am glad you mentioned the Usenet. I have fond memories of those days 
Where else would you find Larry Page asking how to set a user agent?
Oh yes, good old times…
Was not aware of the Larry Page thread, but it’s an excellent example of how collaboration already existed at the time! And it’s quite easy to search for early questions of a lot of today’s VIPs 
Oh my old times when I had time (and courage) to test custom roms in my Motorola Milestone!!
I spent hours and hours daily in forums, mostly from bands I liked in that time.
The one I used to the most is a Brazilian dedicated page for the band Korn (kornbrasil.com/forum), where I was one of the admins, in Top 3 posters, and Limp Bizkit (thearmpit.com), which I still has in contact with some members, including the founders (who still has direct contact with the band members 
) in a Whatsapp group chat.
Of course I don’t have any screenshot, not even found in archive.org. This was between 2004 and 2009.
Good old days.
I miss this old times… social media killed them all. 
I spent too many hours in MMORPG - Metin2 :cowboy_hat_face:. Back in the days it was really popular in Poland and everyone at my age played it at least once 
I used these forums and looking for people to be prepared for events and team raids. Slay this dragon with people I met there was my biggest achievement back then :rofl:
High five, the rockbands communities were the best! :guitar: :grinning_face:
I miss that vibe of the early 2000s when everything was so mysterious. You knew almost nothing about the members’ personal lives and just enjoyed the music.
I’m still listening to those songs with pleasure and sentiment. :heart:
StackOverFlow was one of my first forums as well!
This is a tough one since I am so old and don’t remember
There were some old social forums i was in but really don’t remember any names :(.
Now there are current forums/groups in facebook that I am in:
Star Wars
Disc Golf
Fishing
E2M (Eager to Motivate) - health/workout group
the pre-internet BBS were amazing for the time, moving from a phone handset in the cradle to an actual modem was such a major step. The star trek game was amazing and getting hints from the community was a big plus!
