8 Years Later and the CNCNZ.com Machine Rolls On | 13/10/05

Recommended Posts

TiberianSun.Net.NZ, TSNNZ, Command & Conquer NZ, CNCNZ and now CNCNZ.com, whatever you want to call it. About eight years ago I started a small web site with no idea on what I was doing, eight years later and I still have no clue... I think I'm starting to get the hang of the Webmaster thing now. Seriously though, this month CNCNZ.com celebrates it's 8th year online. We have seen so much happen over the years, sites the have come and gone and then come back only to disappear once again, the demise of the once great Westwood Studios, we have seen the C&C franchise evolve and move to 3D only to grind to screaming halt today. And through it all the one thing that has never really changed is CNCNZ.com, yes we've had different names, different layouts and many staff changes, but its still the same attitude and professionalism that we have always used since day one. I invite you to share your memories of CNCNZ.com's early days, the community or just what C&C means to you as a fan in this WebWire forum thread.

 

CNCNZ.com The Eight Year C&C Community Veteran!

And a month from now, November 12th 1997... I popped on the scene as Area101, visiting Sonic's web-site constantly from that day. Although it was actually another year or so before I made myself known.. I was there.

 

I must admit, these were great times to be in the community. We had updates and news flying out of our ears **sighs** I truly miss it. :cry:

 

8 years is truly something we can be proud of here... No site apart from the Den can boast such endurance in the community. I will say, that over the last 8 years, we still rock!! :D

I haven't even been here a year and I feel like I've been here a long time.

 

Here's hoping that CNCNZ.com will stick around for another 8 years. Keep it up Sonic!

Congrats Sonic and crew both past and present I suppose.

 

Since we seem to be comparing time spent here for whatever reason.. I joined up on the cncnz forums back in 2002. :P

If anyone hasn't read it before, all 8 years of the site's history is recapped here http://www.cncnz.com/site/history.shtml

 

I have updated that page and fixed a few errors, add some colour to make it easier to read as well.

I decided not include details about hosted/network sites in the history. I do mention our original ones but not our more recent sites. I should probably work them all in there I guess.

 

Fixed the typo.

Generals released Feb 2003

Zero Hour released Sep 2003

 

Generals is older than Zero Hour since Zero Hour is the expansion and requires Generals to run :wink:
