Sythe 15th Anniversary Thread

[video]

YES THIS IS LATE IM SORRY THERE IS A PANDEMIC
Hello and Happy Birthday to our site. Can you believe it has been 15 years? Some of you aren't even 15 years old.

This is what the website looked like in 2005.

Spoiler: A Look at the Past

You can see even more snapshots of Sythe's history by clicking here: Wayback Machine.
It's mind-blowing how much has changed since.

For the 10th anniversary, we had a thread where some senior members and staff said some nice things about the site and it was quite pleasant; you can find the previous event here [Miniranks] Sythe's 10th Birthday!

What we appreciated about the previous anniversary was the stories and thoughts the community shared in the comments. Rather than interviewing specific people again, I'd like to have you all share your experiences on Sythe over the years. We'll put them here in the body afterwards for a pleasurable reading experience when reminiscing.

@Sythe did have some words he wanted say though:

It is remarkable that our little website is now one of the oldest continuously running websites on the Internet. We are as old as Youtube and Reddit (technically older by domain registration date). We've been pronounced dead more times than Bitcoin yet we are still here. We've seen competitors come and go. We've seen games come and go. We've seen ups, we've seen downs. We are still here! If you come back in another 5 years we'll still be here then too. Now that you've read this far in suspense and disgust: bye forever and cya tomorrow. Here's a song about my feelings.

Also, because the CDT is so generous and hardworking, there is a Birthday Event to celebrate Sythe's history! As a thank you to all who are celebrating with us, a minirank will be awarded to all those that participate!
