Is it ZapperZ?

Was it created by many people, and if so are the originators still around today? Also, what date/year was this forum created?

You saw "it"? You mean you saw a penguin on campus, and wondered if it was Pengwuino? I never saw any penguins on campus when I went to UCD for undergrad...
