How much experience do you guys have?

Our admin team consists of gamers and geeks with a rich lanning heritage and experience in both the setup and administration of almost every LAN to grace the Newcastle region. LeftWing is reponsible for the oldest and best LAN pranks in recorded history, Felix has not once tripped over a switch at any LAN thus far, and thrax has been on the scene since Noah had an ark.

Wait, didn't I have an account on the Playtopia/Training Grounds forums 6 months ago? And what happened to all that stuff anyways?

In case you didn't already know, we've merged the websites into one easy to swallow ... website, and as far as members go from the original Playtopia/Training Grounds you can simply sign up again on our forums with no extra hassle and all the added security of the new site. Huh? You said why DIDN'T we move everything over? Just because we didn't like the way spammer bots had infiltrated the old forums and since we didn't have more than 200 'real' users after 2 months of registration we decided to can it all in favour of a new and more awesome set of spam-proof forums. Also these new forums allow us to add your first name and your last name as required fields for registration, which means that we get to know a lot more about our LAN attendees. You've heard of communism right? Well just like communist China, we're hosting the goddamn Olympic games so you gotta tell us where you live, your medical history and your driver's license number. That's right, ALL REQUIRED FIELDS NOW.
Also, you have to check that box on the forum's Terms and Conditions before you get any further - which just seals it all in nicely - don't bother reading it all the way through guys because I can tell you right now that you're not going to be on LAN for a second without clicking Accept.

I think I did click Accept on there before. Are you going to steal my pets and secretly watch me through my bathroom window now?

Never. We love you more than anything, without you there is no LAN.
