Which are the oldest websites for Lego MOCs?

I was thinking Rebrickable was all I needed and it just "ever" existed...
then this https://rebrickable.com/blog/408/rebrickable-turns-10/
they are pretty young, 10yrs old means 2011. not 19xx!

How was the MOC world before them?

LUGnet, Brickshelf, MOCpages, Eurobricks, FBTB .. most are still around

First site was a usenet group (now Google Groups)

MOCpages seems to have gone offline last year sometime.
