It all started back in 2004, when this Eminem fan came up with the idea to create a website around the artist I so much admired. I didn’t want it to be just another typical fan page, but rather an “archive” of information about Eminem and those related to him. So I did a research as to what people are curious about and started creating pages to “answer those questions”. Given how young I was at the time, a lot of it was, well, cringe worthy at best, especially looking back now —but most of the content has been updating through the years, so hopefully by now, 18 years later, the cringe is a bit less.
While the forum has since been shut down, I would still like to thank our former forum mods (madchild especially), who helped me deal with all the bullshit that was thrown at us. And there was a lot on a forum with over 60k members, most of which were at the time in their teens or early twenties. You can imagine what kind of cesspool that amount of kids can produce. Then the bots and spammers came in uncontrollable numbers, and after several years of having to deal with all the daily nonsense, I was forced to shut the forum down as it started to outgrow the small team we had controlling it.
Eminem.net is not run by or affiliated with Eminem nor Shady Records. Its an unofficial fan site, made by fans for fans. But I am thankful to Marshall for never causing any problems in regards to the website. I was told by other webmasters that not all celebrities are like that, or as understanding, so thank you Marshall for letting these fans run this fan site unobstructed.
