Hehe, for the first time in my life, I am classified as "older"...
But concerning that page: what use has it? I browsed it a little, and I could not find any reason why I should register with it.
Also, not having the forum link in the navigation is an absolute no-no IMHO.
Overall, the website looks exactly like "Site built and hosted for free at freewebs": Really cheap. Well, I am not a webdesigner either, but I can hack a better page into notepad if neccessary... (at least I claim to, as long as noone wants this to be proven).
All in all, this page (and the registration) seems more like a way to get a few more visits fpr the sponsor banners... allthough I highly doubt any other than "freewebs" gets the dough.
