Well, congrats to the guys who've kept the lights on for the past 5 years. Those hamsters powering the server have lasted longer than expected!

+1  :bd:

+2! I've been here since September 28, 2012 according to my first post.

Lucky for them they are hamsters and not gerbils.

A big +2 from me as well.  Thanks fellas.  :notworthy: 

I gotta say, though, that I can't believe it's been five years already!  :o  Seems like we just got here...

Five years, holy crap!!! Congrats, my friends, for a job well done.

It's high praise from me to say I've never dwelled in a forum - not at WG, not at Matrix, even though I had accounts and worked for both extensively in the past - that kind of thing just never interested me. And yet lucky you, I hang out here and share weaboo videos and other stupid shite. Maybe a game or two here and there, but no promises.

What ever happened to Groglord?  :dreamer:

He's a semi-mythical being who only appears in times of great need.

The Groganati came from somewhere...
