During what I would consider was the Renaissance years of the Internet. There's a site, although now is just a shell of its former self, that used to be one of the centers/hubs for like-minded individuals who just wanted a community who loved anime, art, and games. It used to be this virtual cosplay convention where anyone who were mostly like myself, introverts who wanted to belong to a community that liked to talk about various themes mainly anime related, would hang out while posing as the chibi cosplays of avatars they wanted to be. I tried visiting the website after more than a decade and saw that the forum section was still pretty busy, new content were still posted mainly by old members of the site. It still gives the cozy comfortable feeling that the internet of a bygone era used to give.
