We did it fellow bots and femmebots!
It's not only our anniversary but our 20th anniversary, making a full 20 years since we opened!
As well as a special year-long gold variant of the theme incorporating a bit of 2002 background with the red, as well as that; the PORTAL Page and Renegade Portal page have been completley re-designed. Instead of loads of columns going down the page for the main portal we now have one simple page so you only have to scroll once. Everything is in one place instead of being across the page in multiple columns. Similarly the RENEGADE portal page is also now one simple page.
The Friday night chat via Discord will be open all day today and over the weekend if you fancy popping in before closing until the following Friday where it'll return to one night only. In fthe uture, where the current "Welcome" section is on our new portal page will be future TF news and a main TF article. Since we don't have website the portal page is a way of trying to incorporate our own mini-website via a portal page into this message board as well..
There'll be a few other goodies across the board, and we could'nt have got here without each and everyone of you that has signed up over the years. Things may have slowed down a lot over the last few years due to social media and more members pursuing life and not being able to spend as much time here as they might wish, however, with 2o years we're still fighting, we're still open and plan to continue to keep this place a home for our RENEGADE faction.
So with that, I will keep it short and sweet, enough with the speeches. With the threat more and more of communities going extinct due to other social media, Let's make it count this year and thereafter!
reguards,
Hoist

Nice Job with the new look Hoist I have seen a lot of other Transformers Communities went completely dead / barely hanging around. I do blame Social Media (Facebook) for it. It's a shame ![:(](//storage.proboards.com/3246541/images/aKfkhFxoei0YeOdMEzsx.gif) I missed the other Communities they were the best times. Social Media went crazy now. I rarely use Social Media Just only 2 I got rid of FB. I missed the early 2000's Hope to see this place make a comeback

Thank-you GK,
As well as social media there were already a lot of sites when wee started that had a major fan website - Seibertron.com, ttw2005, bwtf etc etc. So there was no pint us starting a big website as well We started first and foremost as a community more than a site and there are other small ones like us, plenty of them, that have fallen by the wayside. We were almost one of them. Other members have come and gone and of course have lives too.
Reaching 20 years just makes me even more determined to keep pushing and keep this community going!
