NarniaWeb Timeline
2003
November 21, 2003: Tirian opens the NarniaWeb forum!
John of Into The Wardrobe asked a NZ forum member in late 2003 to collect articles and news about upcoming LWW filming in NZ. She had gathered a number of items for using on ITW, when John emailed to let her know that he wasn't going to run LWW Movie news after all, because one of the other members was starting a website especially for it. [After a couple of months an online friend recommended she join NarniaWeb. She lurked briefly, then joined. Coracle became a mod a few weeks later!]

Ditto Town history:
Ditto Town got its name from a thread where people were allowed to say just "ditto", in a sort of "you can be silly here" thread, very early on. On the rest of the threads a proper reply was expected. It quickly evolved into a club and a lighthearted rivalry between factions of "ditto" people and "original" people who were sworn to think of their own comments or ideas. A website was created for it. There were people who created names and identities for themselves within the Ditto world, including the (long running) president. In 2004, it was given its own forum on NarniaWeb.
