Hey everyone, I created this forum on December 13, 2008, exactly 10 years ago today!! I started the first thread two days later: Welcome VO fans. The timing was fortuitous, with Xbox 360 VOOT being announced the following February, triggering an influx of activity here. Several Virtual-On ports have since been released, with more to come, and just recently, finally, a new game was added to the series.
After 10 years, we've started 800 threads and written almost 12,000 posts. Activity has ebbed and flowed, and people have come and gone, but I am so glad for the discussions here, the countless hours of online game sessions and tournaments, and several offline meetups and tournaments! It will always be a small community but I have greatly enjoyed being a part of it. Thanks!!
16 year anniversary!

Re: 16 year anniversary!
Activity is still pretty high in general, I think people just started talking more on other formats and less on here (I like forums better myself). Western activity has lessened greatly, only a couple players who play regularly. It's good to take breaks of varying lengths.
My VOOM knowledge has advanced significantly but I've never really written it down anywhere. Even though I haven't played much for the past 6 years, I also have learned a number of things in VOOT but not been writing it down. I hope I can get around to these things someday.
I'm particularly bad at remembering things, so even though I've been around since the series was released, I don't remember a lot of what I did, and what websites were active when. Someday it might be interesting to try to compile a history of western VO activities.
