I will say I’ve definitely posted stuff I will cringe about if I come across it again, some I’ll definitely regret.
The forum was a daily routine for me, it was my second home, when my first home wasn’t all that great. I could login, talk to friends, gush over the different movies and Tv shows of Astro. I re-watched a few 1980s series today and it made me want to reminisce I guess.
Anyways I realized today I want to say thank you to this forum. Thank you for making my days a little brighter, for keeping me motivated to do well, for being my second home in the computer screen.Thank you for accepting me into this community with open arms,despite me being a weird awkward child at the time. Thank you for showing me that a story about a little robot with human emotions can connect so many amazing people.
I owe a lot to Astro Boy, and Astro Boy on-line. For one thing I wouldn’t be pursuing Robotics and AI in college currently if I hadn’t found Astro Boy or this forum. I wouldn’t have been captain of the robotics FTC team during high school. It wouldn’t have interested me before as much as it does now. I wouldn’t have the drive to build sentient robots, that change the definition of humanity. Where a person could be made of squishy guts or servos and bolts. (who knows maybe I can be this worlds Dr. Tenma

So TLDR: Thank you to all the amazing people here on Astro Boy online. Because of Astro Boy and this forum, it shaped me into who I am today. Astro Boy will always hold a big role in shaping who I became, who I strive to be and to do the things that i strive to do. Thank You Astro Boy Online.
