How did you find out about 'The Technodrome'?

Yeah, I'm so smart and original, that I came up with this amazing topic.

Anyways,,

It all happened..sometime I don't remember. Probably last December. I heard about a new TMNT cartoon.. blah blah blah.. I searched Ninja Turtles into a search engine. I came across a couple sites, and one had a bunch of links. I just clicked on the Technodrome and guess what happened next?

Well, that was in my other window. What actually happened was, it went to the site, and I joined the forums.

I actually heard about it from PWeddy. I thought it was some stupid forum, for geeks and nerds. And I was a normal over at Under Manhattan, and when Fugitoid stopped updating I shifted over here. What did I find? A cool looking forum with geeks and nerds

I wasn't interested in forums up until August of last year when I joined Mikey QM's forum. Then after hearing so much about this forum from HT and Kali, I knew I had to sign up!

I bought the Collected Books some time around the beginning on 2002. Read them after a while. Decided to check for some TMNT-related sites (which I remember doing some years before that, but back then it seemed like every TMNT-link I clicked on was broken or lead to a un-informative or boring page) I pretty quickly found this board, lurked around from now and then without saying anything, and registred in the autumn.

I think it might have happend some time around when Mirage vol4 #6 came out though.

Damn...am I the only one that found out about this place NOT out of interest in the new series?

Anywho, I was trying to find some sound clips to use for my now aborted TMNT Doom 2 project and I stumbled upon the sound clip page for the site. After downloading a few clips, I actually took the time to notice the site itself. The first thing to enter my mind was, "Wow! For something that's only a fan-site, this place sure looks professional!" I had decided to browse the site some more. Lo and behold, what do I notice? A link to a forum! How could I pass this up? This was the first TMNT fan-site I had found that actually had a pro quality to it (probably because it IS a pro site), and I figured it was my only chance to find an online TMNT fan community worth staying with. As you can see, it obviously is considering my time spent here and postcount

That's my story.

Heh, I came here during myfirst year of college. I'm in my thrid year now, so I was definitely here before ideas for the new cartoon even existed...

*shrugs* I was watching Michelangelo and an old forum buddy spamming around, and thought, "why not? I'll probly post once, and forget about this place"...


heh, almost 12,000 posts later..

I can't rightly remember how I stumbled upon this site, but it likely started with a half empty bottle of Jack Daniels, a German phonebook, and my Google search bar, as do most my adventures.

I had been looking for a TMNT forum for some time and I found the Technodrome. And of course I joined.

Hmmm. All I remember is stumbling upon a site about the TMNT quite some years ago. There was a small forum where I lurked about. Then came the newer forum. I joined...started spamming it up...and I was hooked!
