Who created Sorcerers Place, and why?
Sorcerer’s Place was created by Sorcerer, a.k.a. Taluntain. See here for more information about the SP staff. As for why… The initial reason was practical necessity. Back in 1999 I was one of the operators/owners of the Baldur’s Gate channel on IRC’s oldest network (EFnet), and since Baldur’s Gate had just been released, people needing information about the game were swarming the channel. Numbers in the range of 100-150 at a time were quite common. The channel operators were people very knowledgeable about the game, and were helping people in the channel constantly. I was particularly active in this role back then. Early on, however, I noticed that there was no single complete reference site for Baldur’s Gate, which would contain everything that I and the majority of people visiting the channel expected. If someone wanted an editor, they had to go to one site, if another wanted news, there was another site for that, yet a third for cheats, etc. After I eventually tired of bombarding
