alt.discuss.gothic.lifestyle was originally proposed
to the alt.discuss hierarchy on July 26, 1998 by
Lord Morbid. Under the following
charter:
This group is for discussing the gothic way of
life. The clothing, makeup, the music and much
more can be discussed here.
~Information provided by Lord Morbid
Group passed by vote of 69:9
During the first month of the newsgroup it
experienced an attempted take over from an
internet group calling themselves the Knights of
Grob (KoG). This caused a flame war in the newsgroup that in turn lead to the
Katzenjammers to come into the newsgroup to assist the
goths in getting rid of these trolls.
During this time in the newsgroup many of the
original posters of
alt.discuss.gothic.lifestyle were lost as
posters.
At the end of the flame war that had ensued Lord
Morbid posted in the newsgroup that he was
shutting off the Webtv service in order to move
to a personal computer. He at the same time
e-mailed I.O.
Pan stating that he was turning the newsgroup over to him and to please keep it alive for him.
I.O. Pan
since that time requested the assistance of Ostara (a.k.a. Lady Ostara) for help in the rebuilding
of the newsgroup as well as assistance on the
pages for the charter.
