I believe that currently 2012 is the popular date amongst doomsayers because that's when the Mayan calendar enters a new epoch (much like the Western calendar changing from 1999 to 2000). Recall that there were a number of people prediting the collapse of civilization in 2000 as well.
One Planet X (at the board we generally shorten it to PX) believer predicted the end of the Earth on May 15, 2003. If you search the BAUT around this time you will see a lot of threads by both believers of this nonsense and people who were looking for answers because they had heard about it and were scared. It is very enlightening and the believers use all the same arguments that we are starting to see now: Government cover-ups, world leaders building secret bunkers, pole shifts, etc.
Needless to say nothing happened in 2003, and none of these PX-doomsayers has shown any evidence that their 2012 predictions have any basis in reality either.
