Hello, everyone - I was obviously feeling far too nostalgic and wanted to check in with how a website that I considered pretty formative to my experience as a young Sonic fan. Just wanted to say hi, as I saw a few topics in this part of the forum with names which I recognised! I went by RaDaR125 back then, although I have mostly dropped the awkward casing, haha - just call me Radar.
Two things - I wondered if there was any chance of there being any archives other than through the Wayback Machine or siimilar of the forum as it used to exist - a lot of stuff has obviously been lost to time (such as the count to 1 million thread I started and stole from another forum, lol).
Second, I saw that there is a Discord up and running - any chance there's a nice easy link to that? This was the only real forum I frequented and therefore I am terrible at navigating.
I also just wanted to thank everyone who made my experience of the Sonic fandom so fun between 2010-2014 when I was nary a teenager - I seriously feel like the kind people I met here who just seemed like well adjusted humans, not the stereotype that every Sonic fan seemed to be back then. Major thanks goes to Metallix for making the thing in the first place!
Not sure whether I'll be active on forums ever again, but it's certainly felt nice to look back on this site and think about when times were a lot simpler for me, selfish as that may be.
