Forum 7's name originally comes from the s00oer-sekrit moderation forum's ID number circa 2003/2004 on the old pre-Jolt era forums. Back then, observant users noticed that the visible forums ID numbers went 1, 2, 3 4, 5, 6, 8... leading to conspiracy theories about "Forum #7." So as a joke and part of April Fools 2004, I made "Forum 7", staging it as "oh crap the secret forum got exposed to the public!" Like the Liberal/Conservative Discussion Zones from April Fools 2010, it was only supposed to be open for a day or two, however it quickly filled a unique niche in the forums and we let it stick around until it had to be sacrificed to preserve the dying server hamsters of the old Nationstates server.
Cool, I've always wondered why because Junkyland was founded in 2009.
