Wasn't there another name before Abiworld, too? The board was abiworld, but wasn't the domain name something odd, about cars or motorcycles or something? I totally can't remember anymore.

realpoor was originally a gay porn site. it wasnt making any money, so they closed up shop. Some of the old sites visitors never caught on, and they just stayed here when we came.....actually about half this board now i think was from the original site =(

True, but that was Uglar's (I think) alias for it. Kemble's is the one I was thinking of; I remember the "jeep" part now.
