What happened to the people who were on that forum? Now they are among us.

Another former TAAU member here (in case my user name didn't give it away already :p)
I got out of collecting for a while and when I came back to it, TAAU had closed. It was a shame because I had made some good friends there back in the day.
I skulked around TFW2005 for a little while, but I missed being part of the Aussie community. So I searched out Ozformers and lurked for a while. Then finally signed up and haven't looked back. :)
I found Ozformers just by Googling "Transformers Forum" as there seems to be a forum for just about anything. Ozformers was around the top of the results.
i was looking for CW items online, ended up following a thread listing Oz resellers, and lo and behold, ended up registering to share my local sightings.
Wow 20 years.... Shite congrats Ozformers
Well in an anniversary of sorts for this thread thought I'd do a shameless bump for the new members. Just nice to see how you found your way this bastion of nerdiness.
I can't honestly remember, was so long ago. Possibly because through a google search and discovered it around the same time as the convention
Back when various toy stores broke the street date for the AOE toyline, I needed to find out if it were possible for me to get something. Thanks to the Vic sightings, I managed to get all of the Wave 1 deluxes at Chadstone. When I got back on the website, I noticed that one of the members (I think it was Paulbot) posted about an "excited teenager" who walked away with one of each deluxe. I assumed it was about me, since I was pretty hyped to get those deluxes earlier than intended. It actually influenced me to join the community.
With that aside, I was busy over the years but it wasn't until now that I decided to join Ozformers, and I'm glad I did :)
I voted "other"... :p
