I went digging deeper, found the hidden garden (https://chao---garden.neocities.org/hiddengarden0) and the final page (https://chao---garden.neocities.org/credits). I really like what you did here. Ironic that you talk about identities and people from 20 years ago still being around or not, since I have no idea if you're still around or not due to this page being last updated 5 years ago

That’s some good investigating Crackworth, good article! I was very confused about what was happening since I don’t spend a lot of my time on Neocities, most of the time I was only able to catch the aftermath of these events LMAO. Anyhow, doing these types of projects does require a lot of professionalism, something I feel like federifederi dropped the ball on. Quite sad that it went the way it did.

Thank you very much puddingpuds! I'm glad my page helped someone :). Sometimes I wonder if F+F really was just a follow-for-follow scheme, or if the owners just didn't know what they were doing. If the owners really didn't know what they were doing, I feel like they should've have just stepped back for a while to cool down before making a more professional response, rather than just getting very defensive.

Getting defensive is never really a good option, rarely does it go well and it just causes more problems… oh well, let's hope the next project that comes around learns from these events.

Thanks for making this! I was completely confused what happened to F+F. I saw the drama unfolding a bit but didn't think much of it and got busy irl. Only today I found out all the events to their downfall thanks to this page.
Don't worry much about Y2K I promise Mihail's Page IS Y2K compliant and it's also Y10K compliant as I've read [https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2550.html] and I WILL make sure whatever future webmaster of my web site will use the format proposed.
Futuremore, I even made that IBM 5150 computer that runs that IBM PC DOS 1.0 is also Y2K compliant (it IS) however no one ever responds to its `Enter current date' prompt so it always reports 1st January 1980 anyway.
apperantly, my iphone is not y2k compliant. at least my laptop is :)
Good to see that people are Y2K compliant! Just remember to turn off your devices before midnight on December 31 1999!
