Is it time to relook at the bitcointalk.org history?

Is it a time to relook at the bitcointalk.org history?

Firstly, I would say sorry if I am making a annoying topic.
If it is, please let me know, then I will lock it.

Secondly, the idea comes to me due to two recently topics I read over last months:
1. Satoshi's lesson, theymos
2. How can we take Bitcoin Talk back into the Bitcoin community?, Jet Cash

Of course, I don't have too long time of participation in the forum, and a lack of knowledge on the forum compared to other experts here.
I only made the topic as my contribution (small contribution) [if it is] to the forum. As I said above, if it is un-constructive one, I will lock it later.

To make the forum better, I think that at first, forum users, new forum users in particular, should know the history of bitcointalk forum. How it was during its early days, early years.
For technical stuffs, which I have not known, someone known it please contribute to the topic.

History:
Birthday:
The bitcointalk.org forum started on 22th Nov. 2009, by satoshi (Satoshi Nakamoto), and officially announced by that guy with the Ann topic, Welcome to the new Bitcoin forum!
The forum originated from the one: http://bitcoin.sourceforge.net/boards/index.php
Satoshi is the third member of the forum, and the above ANN topic is the fifth one.
If you curious to find out more, the first member is admin, that I guess is satoshi too.
The second member can not found.

The admin's responsiblity take-over
Our current admin, theymos created his account on 9th Feb. 2010. He posted the first comment in the ANN topic on December 29, 2011, 08:54:22 AM
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5.msg665944#msg665944
His next post on the topic was published on July 12, 2012, 08:14:57 PM
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5.msg1026145#msg1026145
Due to the fact that satoshi left the forum on December 13, 2010, 04:45:41 PM (his last active day), I guess that theymos took over the forum during the two potential periods, first one from Dec. 2010 to Dec 2011, the second one from Dec 2011 to Jul. 2012.
Of course, someone have details can contribute here, or theymos can confirm the time he took over the forum from satoshi.
Another theory based on the first important topic theymos made in the forum relates to forum rules. Newbie restrictions (Please discuss from policy here.), published on 12th June 2011. I think that he likely took over the forum around that point.
The most probably theory is theymos took over the forum within the period from Dec. 2010 to June 2011.
The forum’s hack history:
Three times, so far, on 2011, 2013, and 2015.
More details can be found there: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4405796.0

Theymos, yesterday published data on the forum registered account over time.

We're at a local minimum, but registrations jump around a lot:

I don’t know how many times the forum interface changed, still tried finding it, and will post more details later.

When shitposters come here, they aren't bringing their best. They're bringing nonsense, they're bringing drama. (And I assume some are good people.) We need to build a copper membership and make shitposters pay for it.

[Quickseller]

We need to build a copper membership and make shitposters pay for it.

Perhaps buying a copper membership (or some other premium membership) should be a requirement to wear anything except for a very basic signature, and the same to participate in any of the bounty subs.

You could even say everyone will be walled off from wearing a signature unless they buy a copper membership.

Word-spinning plagiarism and no reference link. Sad.

[The Cryptovator]

Nothing new or unique. Spinning word from others post. Post isn't really belongs to meta. Even title is taken from Jet Cash, How can we take Bitcoin Talk back into the Bitcoin community? 

Firstly, I would say sorry if I am making a annoying topic.
If it is, please let me know, then I will lock it.

Don't create topic if you have to say sorry.
It's time to lock.

[Coyster]

How can shilling out obvious facts make the community great again?
There are so many things that need to be put right and one is the urge to start new topics, even when rightly so, there is no need for them.
If you're going to be making new posts, make sure it's a new idea or suggestion.

[lobcmt2]

Once again, sorry for the topic.
I changed the topic tittle, and locked it.
I thought the new title is more relevant for the topic.
Everyone joined the forum should know about the forum history.
