    If I were to name generations, I'd probably just name them based on the person that left the biggest impression on my mind amongst that group of people... Seems kinda pointless, really~

    History is possibly the most opinionated subject... even more than Politics & Religion ...because history involves both Politics (history of countries) & Religion (history of organized religion)

    Every historian will have a different opinion, and write books based on their opinion. Then there are entities like the US government, Vatican, Workers Party of North Korea, etc., who sanction historians... where 'historians' are paid to have a specific opinion, & write books based on that opinion.

    ...enough said about history
    -------
    I registered on this site to keep track of Chinese Novel chapters.
    Chinese novels had tragedy, but got better with time
    Then came the Cringy Capitalist Korean novels
    Then came Japanese novels with beta MCs
    then better Korean novels
    then better Japanese novels

    I stumbled across this site after wandering around baka tsuki, the rest is history.
    Been here for awhile but I keep disappearing when winter comes so i dunno what happen most of the time. Can't really call myself historian.
    I'm pretty sure I didn't know most of the active members nowadays, cuz I'm not that active anymore. Pretty sure some of them is someone I already knew but with different username. But i dunno which one is whom.

    I'm so happy for Kurono!

    I do not have all of NUF's history. But at the very least, I have some of the history of NUF Matchmaking.

    NUF Matchmaking was started by @iampsyx on August 10, 2016. See here.

    Then in Feb 3, 2017, it returned once again, with iampsyx as the main host. For April Fools of that year, Tony makes NUFdating.com, a dating site for nuffians.

    In 2018, the torch gets passed on.

    On March 21, 2018 in General Chat, a person moonlighting as @Sun God posted a thread titled "Looking for a marriage partner." Sun God is seeking a marriage partner through NUF. He humbly brags that he is "not so rich but barely enough to be a billionaire" and seems to be stuck in a contract marriage. The thread has the community in cahoots and spins off parody threads, including one by @DanDG and another by @juniorjawz

    With all the marriage and dating threads running amok, @Hotato decides to revitalize NUF's Matchmaking service on March 23, 2018.

    From that point on, it has been run in 2019, 2020, and 2021 at various times of the year.

    The staff makeup does tend to reflect who was relatively "popular" on the site around the time of the event.

    If anyone ever wants to host a matchmaking event or help run an event as staff, they are always welcome to PM this account. This account has extended PM conversation permissions.

    Cheers!

    Unlike real life, there are also some people who joined for a short time and never returned after checking this place out.

    I believe that one generation in the internet might be even shorter than one year for some people.
