That 2002 Flash animation site I found still has its guestbook open

I stumbled on this old Flash portal from like 2003 last night (the one with the dancing stick figures and bad MIDI music). The guestbook is still accepting comments, and someone actually posted last month asking if anyone remembered a specific cartoon about a sad potato. It was weird seeing that little time capsule still ticking. Has anyone else found a forgotten site with a working guestbook or forum?

That line about "a sad potato" got me. Those old Flash sites had such a specific kind of weirdness. What nobody talks about is how those guestbooks are basically digital graveyards now. They survive because nobody remembers to turn them off, and the hosting is cheap enough to keep running on a forgotten server somewhere. I found one a few years back that was a fan site for a cartoon that got cancelled in 2004. The guestbook had a post from 2021 where someone said they were the creator's kid, and their dad had passed away a few years before. Kind of chilling to see that connection still hanging in the air like that.
