The Paperpusher's Message Board, also known as PPMB, is the major gathering place for Daria fans. Founded in 1999, it gets its name from the original owner, the Paperpusher.
History
The PPMB was originally founded by the Paperpusher as an alternate message board to the major Daria fandom message board at the time, the Outpost Daria Message Board. It has existed since at least October 13th, 1999, from its earliest saved copy at www.webarchive.org and its original address of paperpusher.simplenet.com. When the Outpost Daria website was "Foxed", or sent a letter by Viacom asking Outpost Daria to cease the alleged infringement of its intellectual property, the Outpost Daria Message Board was closed. The bulk of Daria fandom then migrated to the PPMB, which became the major message board of Daria fandom.
Unlike many of the earlir Daria message boards, the PPMB could be efficiently moderated, with messages that violated the ad-hoc guidelines removed and belligerent users banned. Other messageboard such as the Scorched Remnants Message Board remained unmoderated, and after the SRMB closed, the Sheep's Fluff Message Board opened to provide a forum for Daria fans who wanted to post on a message board that allowed the discussion of sexuality and other adult topics. However, PPMB remains the central message board of Daria fandom.
The board remained run by Paperpusher who kept control of the board in the hands of its staff of moderators. In 2005, Paperpusher turned the control of the PPMB over to Kara Wild.
