simplified version... from my limited knowledge...
Formed by Camo... back in 99 i think.... or 2000.......... site grew.. underwent a few site layouts etc... 2002 the site closed... and then was
purchased by Hakske... he re-opened & then sold to a partnership of me & sting.. and thats kinda close to where it is now...

Just out of curiosity how much did the site cost.
And where does A.Bullet fit into this picture?
And Brian I noticed that it seems to say you were the owner aug02-aug03 or someting along those lines.Are you still one of the owners?
Thanks for telling me

A.Bullet was brought on board as the programmer.. he offered to completely script the site..
He was later brought aboard as a co-owner due to certain.. "complications" we had at the time. He is currently one of the people who own the server
in which DFB is hosted.. therefore that is why he is what he is......
Also, as for my sig/profile item... yes, i am still involved somewhat in ownership.. however, ownership of the domain switched hands at the end of
august... again, because of server-related circumstances... but i am more or less involved in the management & operation of the site...

Woah! Forget about DFB - I love the AN website, lol. Bulls Eye has done a great job.
Yeah of course it's lovely to see it still around. I'm sure the visitors appreciate it even more though.
However it still doesn't look like Nova takes DFB seriously:

Thanks re our *AN*Site m8.
Yeah Bulls does a good job, hes in Aussie now m8.
*AN* has picked up in tournies etc to think its 17 matchs un beaten now!!! and pulling 1st s ans 2nds in the finals.
Yeah realy cant figure Nova, of all the sights DFB would have to be the most consistantly active, contain and give help more than anyother, the least
flaming, arguements and stuff, and the most clean language and humour.
Yet they highly reconmend DFB as a place for help with map editing and such...go figure???
If Nova Had 1/2 a brain they would die of confusion...
Maybe its cause I hammer them in their forums each time they open their mouth up to change feet.
