If anyone hasn't heard of this, an American Hero and historical figure passed away recently. Neil Armstrong, who lived to the age of 82, passed away today, August 25, 2012, in Columbus, Ohio.
For those who don't know him, get out of my face Neil Armstrong was the first man to walk on the moon, a pivotal moment in American History and in the Cold War, not to mention world history itself. He was the stuff of legend, and will be missed. He leaves behind a great legacy.

These past years have been great, and this community was a great one. Key word being was. Since my birthday last year, the site hasn't updated at all, and people have been slowly trickling away from the forums over the weeks. I've had this site as my internet homepage for ages, and I anxiously awaited the resurgence that I hoped would come. But it never came. So, it is with a heavy heart that I announce my permanent leave of Psypoke. As a moderator, I wished only the best for everyone here, and worked to maintain a jolly environment where everyone could discuss cartoon monsters in peace. Now, I wish all those who happen to be reading this message good luck in whatever endeavors you have chosen to pursue, and that your futures be bright.

Mektar out.

The newspaper I get at home (The Washington Post) states that it's still "Neil Armstrong's Era", and that the two most-important things that happened in the 20th Century were the moon landing and the release of the first atomic bomb.

Meaning... he was EPIC, and now, a great star has fallen u.u

May you rest in peace, Mr. Armstrong.
