The Bore was originally named "Evilbore" after a certain infamous poster who managed to get ownership of the once-great Gaming-Age forums. Once it became "NeoGAF," it was all downhill from there! I don't remember exactly what caused the board founder, Willco, to leave and make the forum, but a number of once-prominent GAF posters migrated there.
If you want to see some of the old shit that went on, check the Dysfunctional Hall Of Fame on the original Bore site.
