Hello everyone,
I've been lurking a few days and figure it's time to introduce myself. I'm the webmaster of Realm of Janus (https://realmofjanus.neocities.org/index.html), currently under construction. Per the blurb, "I'm just a 90's cat raised up on 80's gadgets and 2000's fansite & forum web culture".
To elaborate on that, I went through most of my dad's NES classics before every seeing an SNES, and my first computer was cobbled together from a couple of decomissioned servers from his workplace that we "upgraded" together with a Windows 98 disc. My first wanderings onto the interweb revolved around the Lego fansites, not least among them the in/famously-weird Bionicle fan forum "BZPower" - I will definitely have a few stories for that thread LOL.
As of now, my plans for the homepage boil down to "share stuff I like" - all there is to see at present is a couple of plugs for youtube videos my friends made. I'll be developing it a lot more during the winter break (from my 2nd-to-last semester of paralegal studies), but in the meantime I'll be hanging out here - loving the small community vibes!!

Hi Janus, welcome toooo the forum :ha:
Oh servers huh? I totally tried that too when I was in my early teens, but the server fans were SO LOUD, my dad even made me a special padded computer case out of wood and foam, but it was still too loud :sad: I hope you had better luck!
Where would the world be without Lego!?

Oh, it was definitely loud - I like white noise generally, what gives? :omg:k:
I plan on going through the entirety of the welcome kit in detail - what a great idea! At a glance, I totally need to learn some CSS - thanks!!
