Mongoose forums, the last, best hope and refuge of the geeks and dorks
Apologies for using peoples names, I'm just trying to give it some flavour:
[Opening narration, season 1]
Commander Matthew Sprange: It was the dawn of the third age of Mongoosekind, ten years after the GW War. The Mongoose Forum was a dream given form. Its goal: to prevent another war by creating a place where humans and gamers could work out their differences peacefully. It's a port of call, home away from home for roleplayers, minis gamers, geeks, and dorks. Mongeese and customers wrapped in two million, five hundred thousand posts of spinning yarns, all alone in the internet. It can be a dangerous place, but it's our last, best hope for games. This is the story of the last of the Mongoose Forums. The year is 2005. The name of the place is Mongoose 5.

[Opening narration, season 2]
Captain Alex Fennel (Retired): The Mongoose Forum was our last, best hope for games, a self-contained world many pages long located in neutral webspace, a place of commerce and diplomacy for a quarter of a million humans and mongeese, a shining beacon in gaming, all alone in the internet. It was the dawn of the third age of Mongoosekind, the year the great wargame came upon us all. This is the story of the last of the Mongoose Forums. The year is 2005. The name of the place is Mongoose 5.

[Opening narration, season 3]
LBH: The Mongoose Forum was our last, best hope for peace. It failed. But in the year of the flame War, it became something greater: our last, best hope for Victory Class Destroyers. The year is 2005. The place - Mongoose 5.

[Opening narration, season 4]
It was the year of Firefries,
The year of instruction,
The year we rolled dice that were ours.
It was the year of mirth,
The year of great madness,
The year of games,
And a year of toys.
I was a young age.
It was the end of mystery.
It was the year ACTA rules changed.
The year is 2005.
The place, Mongoose 5.
