View source for BLSafetyNet (2002 - 2004)

'''BLSafetyNet''' (also known as '''BLS''') was a short-lived [[message board]] started by [[Anson]] on December 21, 2002.<ref>[http://www.blsafety.net/register.php BLSafetyNet Registration Page] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20030621204026/http://www.blsafety.net/register.php Web Archive 2003-06-21 20:40:26]). Page indicates 6 month anniversary date, and thus the start date.</ref> Soon after launch it became an area where posters who were disgruntled with [[BoyChat]] were able to create and carry out agendas against [[Free Spirits]] and BoyChat at will. While Anson did not create his board with that specific purpose in mind he did allow [[Pokemon]] to become a moderator who then began to use the forum for his own agenda. The board quietly closed on January 16, 2004, about a year after it began. In his closing message, Anson expressed disappointment in how his project had turned out.<ref>[http://www.blsafety.net/gallery.php?gal=3 BLSafetyNet closure notice] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20040215132847/http://www.blsafety.net/gallery.php?gal=3 Web Archive] 2004-02-15 13:28:47).</ref>
