what made you start TPR?

Hello, i always wanted to know why you started TPR and what made you want it to.

As part of their hobby, but then it turned into a part time business, then full time.

Did someone ask you??? No. I don't think so....

Really, it just started as a place for me to post random pictures of stuff and "blog" about things before the term "blogging" even existed. It started off as a Geocities site in 1996 and the only real snapshot I have of what that looked like is a version of the site from 1997: www.themeparkreview.com/tpr1997

 

And it just sort of took off from there...

The memories of web rings! Thanks for sharing this link. The old Geocities page brings back memories. I find it interesting to see the past.

Wow how far TPR has come since those humble early days. Just think of what this site may become in the next 20 or so years.

What would you say if someone made a Neon Coaster Game thread for it in the "Random, Random, Random" section of the Forum?

 

Would you agree, Robb?

What makes me feel old is remembering visiting the site in the Geocities days.

Are you getting some ideas?? Lol. I thought of making a thread for it, but thought it would be locked as it was not original. I them made a thread about harnesses... It is now locked.

 

I say bring it back!

How about we just let Guess the Neon Coaster die in 1997. If I wanted to bring it back, I would have brought it back sometime in the last 20 years...

Noooo! Those five minutes playing that game were the bast five minutes of my life!

Noooo! Those five minutes playing that game were the best five minutes of my life!

With all due respect, you need to get your priorities straight...

While I can't deny how the site is miles ahead of where it first started, based on the screenshot, I've always kind of liked the old-school charm/vibe TPR has. In the 10 or so years I've visited TPR, I find it neat how it still feels familiar; a stark contrast to other sites I visit regularly (i.e. YouTube, Facebook, etc.) that seem to get updated/changed every other week.
