Hey. I'm Vikingskiy. I used to use Newgrounds a lot as a one-stop-shop for flash games and videos way back in 2007, when I was but a wee lad with no parental supervision to stop me from getting up to hijinks on my brother's school laptop. I was too young to have actively been involved with the NG community, and by the time I became of age, I had already moved on to Steam and later Discord, like a fucking hermit. With the discontinuation of Flash fast approaching on the horizon, I felt the need to come back here a week or so back to play some Newgrounds Rumble just like the olden times. Only this time, I chose to stick around after I had my fun, poked around the Wiki, read up on some NG history, checked out some old Sketchbook Tours, Pico Day parties, you name it. Made me kinda regret leaving NG behind, and it made me kinda wish I had chosen to get more involved beyond just playing games and fucking off. Regardless, I'm here now. Nice to meet you guys.
P.S. Tom, If you're reading this, thanks for what you and the rest of the Newgrounds community and staff have done over the past 20+ years, continue to do even now, and will do in the future. You're all real ones.
