Does anyone know the last time or if TexAgs has ever redesigned the look? Was this the first version they set up and just let ride? What is the oldest/ first thread?

I believe there was a dancing baby gif on it as well

As legend has it, long dead poster named mkf dos attacked and killed texags. He had dirt on Gabe and Slocum so he was welcomed back and paid handsomely to design the mobile version. His face is memorialized in that weird saw em off statue thing outside of Kyle Football
Personally I love the emojis from 1995 but curious about how it all came about.
Wow, big if true.
This is the first design of Texags.com along with what the forums used to look like.

What a good find. Pretty incredible the emojis haven't changed since March 2020
I wonder if BillBoy was satisfied with how much the zoo could squat.
"Will it once again be Nebraska and the little 11"
That's funny because just about every other fan message board still looks like that

How long do you want to ignore this user?

I personally love that TA doesn't look like all the other build-your-own forums.
Don't change anything. It's so much cleaner than other forums
I believe this fine website was launched in 1998.
Because his intention was to have several forums, Peter actually contacted me to see if I would serve as a moderator of one of them or a moderator in general. I cannot remember the specific details.
I was honored by the request, but my profession and family had me busier than a Wal*Mart bag in a tornado.
I have thoroughly enjoyed this website, as well as, discussions with some of the finest posters on the planet.
Oh, and ….
Hook 'em!

I sometimes forgot how good we have it. Just visiting an opposing teams boards is a shock to the system.
UX is super clean. The back end could use some updates. The special character handling, bot invasion and pop ups seem to get worse and worse.

This is exactly correct. Right MkF?

Can confirm the forum was around in Spring 1998, it's how I used to kill time between classes at one of the computer labs way back when.
Crazy that the first version of this site looked as nice in the 90s than many other schools' forum sites look in 2025.
Those were the days…..like the time I caught the ferry over to Shelbyville. I needed a new heel for my shoe, so, I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on 'em. 'Give me five bees for a quarter,' you'd say.
Now where were we? Oh yeahthe important thing was that I had an onion on my belt, which was the style at the time. They didn't have white onions because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones...

Being in TexAgs jail changes a man……..no, not really
I wonder what was going on at spring practice in March 2000

I first started getting on Texags because they had the camera view of the construction of The Zone.
I think i discovered TexAgs because I was at a game, probably in 2000, where some drunk guy was pissed and said he was going to go home and post about it on TexAgs.

I wasn't THAT drunk

And later took us to the camera on the destruction of Jolly Rollie

I want to pour one out for G. Rollie, but it probably smells like musty sweat
This is where being married to Tanya came in handy. Tanya first turned me onto the college baseball forum at austin360.com and then on to TA whenever it launched (I was Will94 until 2011).
Back before it was all old people.

I miss Teach.
I pray for you and Benny often.
Let me know when he needs more bad jokes.

Ahh, the good ol' days of Ginny and Bracy's boudoir-esque cemetery pictures.
Talon2DSO turned me onto TA back in 2008. He is the sole reason I've dealt with you weirdos for 17 years.
