My first forum started back in 2003, with YABB, then YABBse, finally SMF. It was a fan site dedicated to the character Ayeka from the anime Tenchi Universe. I ran it mostly as just a collection of media related to the anime before I started my first role playing game on it (after being told by a guest that "this place is pretty boring. Try making a role playing game". I ran Ayeka's Bliss until 2012. By that time, my interests in anime had blossomed to include many more shows. I guess I had outgrown the site. LOL Anyway, I burned out and had too much in my life going on at the time, so I stepped away until a few years ago. I then started my latest forum after a few domain name changes figuring out what I wanted to specialize in...
