Well, this place was founded in... 2000? 2001? That was even before the 2003 cartoon series existed. And when it came out a year or two later, Krang had to implement that rule because there was a lot of opposition between fans of both cartoon series. I was not here at the time yet, but I was on the internet already and I remember older teens and younger adults at the time simply looking down on the 2k3 series, while there were also others who were contrarians and claimed they never liked the FW series in the first place.
It's been a long time and people have forgotten by now, but there was a big divide in the fandom once the 2k3 series came out. Before FW you had Mirage, ofc, but very few people in the world read those before the internet was a thing, let's face it. So, in the minds of most of the world, the 1987 cartoon series are the original turtles. Therefore, the 2003 series was the first time a big divide in the fandom formed.
