    How old is hexus? This must be pushing the technical limits for a thread necro on this forum

    Hexus existed before that, as I understand it, but there was a major reset/reinstall event in 2003, which is why the current forum only goes back that far.

    All way before my time though, so I could be talking rubbish

    A 12 year necro is pretty impressive...

    Re: Online touch typing tests

    Jul 2003 was a server reset after a rather unfortunate incident

    Was running for many years before that


    Ferral is likely the longest termer here
