    Shave my face is the oldest English language forum. Badger and blade was founded by a spin-off group from there.

    The shave nook, the shaving room and the shave den are all spin-offs from B&B.

    Against the grain is a spin-off from the shaving room.

    These are as best I can recall. Most of these events happened 10-15 years ago.

    The histories as I remember

    SRP was a Yahoo Group First and the oldest,

    SMF and SRP the forums, started pretty close to each other, and B&B formed after a falling out between SRP and B&B

    ATG is almost 2 years old. I was the 14th member to join that forum. It started July 12 or 13th, 2016.

    Judging from their logo, they are only a three star forum. :taunt002:

    First thread. ^^^

    @crackstar (Jeff) or whatever he goes by these days. (Edit: @Yehuda D) @Queen of Blades (JoAnna), @RaZorBurn123 and @sparky5693 are the only "founding" members left, but I'm sure there are others from that first year.

    @gssixgun perhaps?

    Thanks Ryan. I do find it interesting to see the first thread and its members.

    After reading through those posts, I think I have a good idea where they came from and why they left.

    Very cool!
