I've asked this 2 years ago, on CH, but I'll try my chance here again (especially because in the thread below, someone who seems to have seen the original thread has posted):

Is the thread in this screenshot the original thread (the first thread Cracky posted on 4chan with her photo attached), or is it a remake of it?

All the sources that I had read about the beginning of the "Cracky phenomenon" seemed to imply that Cracky was the name posters in her thread gave her, not the name she used herself. So I thought this could be a remake of the thread, but 6th of January seems to be quite an early date for the #sweet tripcode to be cracked and spread around for someone to create a remake of the first thread.

Or— is it a second or third thread that Cracky herself started with her new nickname, after she was christened Cracky-chan by some anon?

Or is this just some shopped image that distorts truth in every way? Would anyone care to share screenshots of Cracky threads from January 2005 if they have any?

It's a long time ago :/

iirc (which might not be the case) it's not the original. As you wrote, she did not pick the name herself, and I'm fairly sure the "stop snorting things up your nose ok" was one of the first comments, and came before someone mentioned "Cracky".

Furthermore, for posterity:
sometimes it's assumed her everlasting fame was grounded in her being the first cam-girl on that board. That's not the case; there were many before and after.
Why she still has a place in the memory of the Internet after so many years is solely because of the quality and intensity of her photos.

Any more caps from way back when?

This thread from 420chan is the only relatively old screencap I have.

^ No idea why the thumbnail doesn't display, click on that image. DEFINITELY relevant.

The thumbnail doesn't show because it's a corrupt jpeg. The jpeg is corrupt because there's a lot of text appended to it. This text is a logfile of an irc convo.
In spite of appearances, there's nothing secret or hidden about it; it's just a result of plain laziness. It's a lot of text that I couldn't be arsed to copy and paste into a textual thread, so I just tagged it onto the end of a random image, and tried posting it that way. Surprisingly that worked.

To see the text, just open the image with a plain editor or pager and scroll to the end of the gibberish.
