The previous version of MFGG's forums ran on the Invision Forum software (an older version before Invision software had to be licensed). It began on October 13, 2003, shortly after the VBulletin forums were taken down. On January 26, 2004, Spitfire (the host) removed MFGG and replaced it with a page that encouraged new members to reconsider joining the forums. From then on, the forums were hosted on Retriever II's website server, Penguinia. All posts from 2003 remain in tact, though all posts before September 2004 in the Pointless Post Palace were purged.
The forum software contains a lot of custom modifications by Retriever II, such as badges, HTML ban, warn levels that everyone can see, better topic reporting, and a link to the MFGG IRC Chat, mfggirc. There are also several hand-made security patches, which were made with the help of Techokami, one of which was abused by Nintendogs.
Due to various reasons such as security and stability issues and deterioration of the software itself, the Invision forums were replaced by the phpBB forums on November 9, 2009.
