PK History
Portkey.org opened in early November 2002 at a time when Harry/Hermione shippers had no individual site of their own to hang out at. Soon the Lily/James and Draco/Ginny fans also made themselves at home here. With the release of the Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix book in June 2003, the ship Ron/Luna (HMS Red Moon, Nic's personal favorite) was added, to the enthusiasm of many of the site's regulars.
This does not mean, however, that you must ship every Portkey ship to be a member, as there are plenty of members who only like one ship but not the others. For this reason, each pairing has its own forum that acts as a one-stop shop for practically anything about that ship, from Fic Challenges, Ficlets / Cookie Jars, Fic Recommendations, miscellanous chatter and much more.
PK Trivia
The first fic to be published on the site was Out of the Shadows and Into the Night, by Professor Granger.
The first registered author was the site's coder, James. Although known amongst many Portkey oldbies for having a penchant for Nappa/Ron (Ew.), and also for having his own official group of fangirls (known as the JFGs), his main fic is Fading Regrets.
The most users on the forums at one time was 3,299, which happened on Aug 14 2008, 07:35 AM CDT.
