:poliwag: Hey everyone! :poliwag:

Today is the big day. Poliwager Forums was originally created on April 10, 2009, and that means today is the 15th birthday of the forum!

Here's a Snapshot from the Internet Archive from 2009. It's crazy to think how far we've come. When the site first started, I created it using a free forum software website, and in November 2010, we moved to our current site: forums.poliwager.net. During that initial move, we unfortunately lost the old site's posts and topics, but the team worked hard to create them here and raise awareness of the server change, and it allowed greater customization over the years and flexibility for what we wanted the site to become. We've been a hub for Poliwager Adoptables updates and discussion, Pokémon discussion, all the way back since before HeartGold and SoulSilver came out, and just a good place to hang out with fellow friendly Pokémon fans. I'm so happy you've been here for it all, whether you just arrived, or you've been around for years already!

Today, we have a total of:
Total posts: 63,904
Total topics: 2,414
Total members: 1,042

Let's celebrate, and continue to share this space as a fun, social area of the internet that all can enjoy! Tell us about your favorite memories of the forums too! :D

Some of my favorite memories from the forums were Oshi's Stadium Tournament and the Hurt 'n' Heal contest! I remember when I won the giveaway for a Poliwager.net t-shirt a few years ago for posting the most on the forums back in I believe it was 2018. Thank you so much Slix for keeping this site up and running and helping the community grow over the years! I've been here for over 6 years now and I couldn't be more proud of the family we have on here now! :D <3 :politoed:
