As the oldest still active account on the board, I want to be the first to say Happy Birthday DubCC. The board turns 10 years today.

10 years ago, many posters on the Dre2001.com board (the official Dr. Dre page back then) decided that they were tired of the new people posting who were not there from the beginning. Much of the westcoast message boards history started with the DreDay.com page, and their board in 1999 counting down until the release of Chronic 2001. Well over time people moved from board to board, since many pages were fan based pages with simple message boards. Everyone from MC Ren to Dr. Dre to Snoop Dogg and the Dogg Pound had a fan page. At the same time Dre2001.com started after the release of Dre 2001. Eventually the people there were over ran by newbie fans who were jumping on the westcoast band wagon. Well all the fan sites, including one I wrote an article for, WCKillaz.com, all joined together to have one message board instead of all these separate message boards, so everyone can come together. This was spearheaded by Overseer, who mainly posted on Dre2001.com board. This mega board that everyone would connect to would be called the Westcoast Alliance or WCA. Over time, the heads of WCKillaz.com and Overseer had a disagreement, and since they own the name Westcoast Alliance, Overseer changed it to Westcoast Connection, meaning that this board still connected everyone else, and it was a better play off of Westside Connection. Eventually the WCKillaz.com guys cameback and everyone was under the WCC umbrella, or dubcc. Eventually as the fan sites started to die off, DubCNN was started as the main news source, and many famous artist have interviewed there. So now one of the most innovative hip-hop boards in the internet now turns 10 years old.

Even though my account registration date is fucked up, I've been here since about day 2 or day 3.

A decade long. A decade strong. That's crazy man.
