Hello everyone, in this post I will explain to you how Nyan came to be.
It all started with a person you may all know as Ruby (ninja, \(^_^)/), who after being banned from TDA for spamming because she wanted to get banned, created a forum based on her obsession for Nyan Cats. Its at this time when Ross joined her on her forum to help out as well as many of our other current members here. It was also at this time that I joined given my experience with admin panel, thus as I am here, I became the tech admin of old Nyan.
For a while Nyan went from being a team site to an academy, to eventually dying out as a forum as a whole. While most members stayed connected with the use of other forums as well as DN, two of the core members Hinata and !! Sexy Lady !! wanted the same type of forum we had with the original Nyan, a fun place where you could just talk to other members without having to worry about academy issues.
Thus, if my memories serve me correctly, Hinata voiced her opinions to Ross, who very much liked the idea to recreate Nyan. Given that I was still an admin on the old Nyan, Ross came to me with a very appealing idea. He had told me that he wanted to create a New Nyan, with Hinata, !! Sexy Lady !!, Ross, and myself being the four admins. While initially we planned to use the old Forum and bring it back to life, it would have been too difficult since Ruby was still head admin, and at that point she had been gone form DN for a while.
Thus, I decided to create brand new forum, the one you are in at the moment, and name it NeoNyan, essentially New Nyan. Of course while the idea behind the Forum still remains, NeoNyan has more features than Old Nyan, as well as more active members. I am not saying one forum is better than the other, for majority of the Old Nyan are members of NeoNyan.
Regardless of old members and new members, once u are part of Nyan, as cliche as it sounds, you will always be a Nyan member. Even if you get banned, as some of our more notorious members are prone to, you will never be permanently banned unless you force us to, and trust me when I say our tolerance for member behavior is pretty high.
Besides all that, Nyan is a more of a fun place for people to come and enjoy a welcoming and safe environment, filled with a diverse group of people who have all come here to socialize. While the concept of this forum is based on the game of Yugioh, many members here dont even discuss Yugioh, but other interesting topics, which is more than fine. We wanted to create this site for people to come and enjoy it, and if you find enjoyment in discussing games, music, life stories, whatever it may be, we want you to share your enjoyment with us, and all the other members, for you never know, you might just find someone with common interests.
Thus, I welcome all new members to our forum, and thank all current members for helping make Nyan such a wonderful online community.
Personally, I want to thank you all. I put alot of time in to making this place presentable, as do the other Admins, but for me to see so people actually log on everyday, it means alot. I am very thankful to those of you who log on frequently, and utilize the forum to it's max,
Thank you for listening to the Story of Nyan,
Carpe_Diem
P.S. Lol I ask that other Admins add in their part of the stories as well, or if I missed or messed up something to fill in the gaps for me. Thank you.
Anyone else who wants to say something or if you have any questions or if you are confused about something, please free to post your thoughts.
This will definitely be more useful than Ross and I explaining to each new member how Nyan Came to Be, atleast I hope lol.
