Who we are
Dragonmount.com is a fan-based website dedicated to Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time fantasy book series. The website is run by fans and is not officially affiliated with the author or his publishers. They do, however, like us a lot and work with us to promote the series. Robert Jordan himself is one of our frequent visitors to the site, and we even host his blog.

History
In October of 1998, Dragonmount opened its doors to the Internet public. The site was designed by Jason Denzel with the help of a number of other people. Our goal back then was to simply provide a place for fans of The Wheel of Time series to come together and discuss the books in a web based setting. There were originally six Organizations (only five of which had leaders), which were intended to be smaller "clubs" within the larger community. The site was not extremely attractive back then and was very slow loading up, but we still managed to get by.

Over the next few years, after numerous server and internet provider upgrades, Dragonmount exploded with popularity and was able to proudly claim to be one of the most successful WoT sites on the Internet. Most importantly though, the website had become home to fans from all across the world. Thousands of people came here (and continue to do so today) on a daily basis to meet up with their friends and to delve in deeper into The Wheel of Time universe. Our site has many stories about the people that come here, and every day a new story is made, and new heroes are sung in story and song. Ask any Gleeman.

Currently, we are in our 7th major revision of the web site and we look forward to all of the exciting things that the future of this site has to offer. Most of the current website was hand-coded from top to bottom, and no ogier were hurt during that process.

What we are all about
Dragonmount is an online community of people from all over the world who have come here to experience The  Wheel of Time series to the fullest. We offer discussions of the books, online Organizations that you can join, an in-depth Role Playing Game, free E-mail, and dozens of other features to help enrich your experience of Robert Jordan's books.

Dragonmount's goal is to provide visitors with a website which enhances their experience of The Wheel of Time. We do this by offering news, forums, discussion groups, role playing, free email, games, and much more. The true focus of this site will always be on the community itself and the friendships we share. We hope that this site will be a place where one may come on a regular basis to socialize and meet new people who also love reading these incredible books.
