I'm wondering how the site generates traction nowadays, given the 3DS is mere months away from losing internet capability. Is it a fact that everyone is sticking around back from the heyday of 2019-12? Or is their new avenues in interest created by the modding scene?
Just something I think about the few times I find myself back here, it's good to see things are still running. This site was and will forever be a huge part of my childhood.
I joined back in 2019, and despite being 24 years old at the time, the same thing that brought so many kids to thus site back during its heyday (lack of access to regular internet-enabled devices due to overprotective parents) brought me here, and at a time when I was incredibly depressed and felt completely hopeless.
This website literally saved my life back then, and frankly it's the only thing keeping me sane now, and I've been trying to revive this website as best as I can given the ridiculous RL obstacles that constantly get in my way (meaning my dad), including by reviving the SDK Quilt (FKA the DSiPaint Quilt), reviving Member Appreciation Day, holding a Pokemon Showdown tournament for the members here, etc.
Anyway, I'm rambling too much lol (I do that a lot), but I hope you stick around and help breathe some more life into this place.
