Well, SMBHQ is still, and always will be, the greatest (and probably oldest) Mario fan community on the interwebs. Trust me, MM, SMBHQ isn't going anywhere bad. It's still up there, we just need to keep it alive. I won't let it die, and I know there are other people here who would do the same.
I've been visiting SMBHQ since I was 7.
As lame as it sounds, it's become a part of my life.
