Wow, a member all the way back from 2004.
We don't get a chance to welcome members such as youself back to the community everyday!
(Even if you aren't totally back... yet.)
Well, welcome back to your old stomping grounds, I suppose. I'm sure you will find that quite a bit has changed over the last couple of years, but I do believe most would argue that the feeling of the community has more-or-less stayed the same.
(I would argue that, but I have only been here since late 2005...)
I can understand your want to check up on some old sites. Heck, I pop in on some of my older haunts every now-and-then as well. Isn't it amazing how so much can change on the internet in just a few short months, let alone a few years! It can be pretty humbling.
Such is the ways of the internet, right?
Hope you will enjoy your stay here, HelloPikachu.
Who knows? Perhaps you will decide to stay. ;D
