Transformers At The Moon turns 12 - TFATM - 10-29-2011 06:29 PM
Please use this thread to discuss the Transformers At The Moon turns 12 news story on the main site.
12 years ago today, 29th October 1999, Transformers At The Moon was first launched. The website, at that time, operated from the domain www.transformers.themoon.co.uk which was based from the email address transformers@themoon. It was by registering this email account that we decided to settle on the name for the site. Whilst both the email address and the domain have since moved to domains owned by us and to better reflect the focus of the website, Transformers toys, the site has continued to be maintained by the two brothers who first launched it.
We had hoped to launch the 9th version of the website to coincide with the anniversary of the site, however due to my computer at home failing, that project is still outstanding.
We will, however, still run the 12th anniversary celebrations, in terms of new special content and announcements, just as soon as wee are able to. But in the mean time we would like to express our thanks to all of you who have visited the website over the last 12 years, joined the message board, Facebook group or follow us on Twitter. So on behalf of thhe pair of us, THANK YOU.
Steve and Dave AKA Transformers At The Moon

Just looked back at the old message board and I registered on;

Was a lurker before that, but it's hard to believe I've had this as my TF home for over 8 years now.
It was the friendship I saw between some of the regulars on here (At Transforce 2002) that persuaded me to upgrade from a lurker to a member.

Looking at the old board too.. 2007 was when I signed up, but I'd lurked whilst mainly posting on tfans for years.
Happy birthday!

Yup we're one of the longest running TF sites out there now and though my interest is not what it use to be, I am still full of exciting ideas for the site which the technology has only just caught up to the ideas I had 10 years ago. So hopefully the future will allow me to finally realise some of my early ideas

December 11th 2001! I would have been looking forward to turning 26 the next day!
Nearly 10 years for me... that's quite frightening when I think about it...
Happy birthday to all!
