Eccie was active for more than a year before aspd died. It was more locally active in Dallas.
Aspd was throwing members overboard while on its death bed. Home2 and another local board (corndog) tried to rise from the ashes. But, had too much incestuous blood with aspd, and left a bad taste in many mouths.
Eccie was uniquely in a place to accept the old aspd members. They made the smart move of expanding in anticipation of the growing pains...instead of waiting for it to happen........I remember getting many emails asking where I was going to go.....I told all of them "home7". But, they found me anyway.
It was fluid for a couple of months at the end of aspd. Many not sure where the most visible would hang their hobby hats. Eccie was smart enough allow the local hobby communties (san antonio, austin, houston...ect) to take on their own flavor without fitting them into the dallas mold (where eccie had a strong presence).....and here we are.

Eccie was actually up and running before ASPD crashed. I remember "Home2" being started when ASPD started having problems as well. Originally Posted by DickEmDown

But you've got it pretty much correct.
And thanks to all who feel that they have a home here no matter how they found us!
And my eyes are STILL closed!
