I remember The Kitten Board (http://thekittenboard.com/board/) - it almost shut down after Seeing Red.
Another shipper specific board similar to All About Spike and BAPS...which made it difficult to discuss the show as a whole. There weren't many general posting boards that weren't into spoilers available at that point in time. If I hadn't been directed there by someone who wanted to repost my essay to the board - I'd never have found ATPO, it was below the radar, because not a spoiler board. (I had a rule back then, you could repost my essays but only if you asked me first and told me where you planned on reposting it.)

Oh, speaking of...did you see Masq's post where she shared a fan letter to the ATPO board, the writer, an 18 year old, who'd recently discovered Buffy - stated that ATPO and Sophist's Blog where what helped him appreciate the show and be able to fulfill his own obsession.

The ATPO Board turned me from strong fan to obsessed...because it gave me that extra layer of discussion that I was craving.
