Welcome to VGR!
I too remember being a teenager and participating on many active forums. Those were fun days. It seems forums are a thing of the past now (generally speaking) because of alternatives like Slack, Discord, Instagram, Facebook Messenger, and Facebook Groups. It's really a shame but there are just too many apps and alternatives these days. However, despite all this being said, VGR is here to stay and we hope to grow into a massive gaming forum. Thanks again for joining.
