This site now has a Forum.
The site is hosted here on Neocities at paemt.neocities.org and and on Namecheap at paemt.org and now also at a Tor .onion address at gp5nikn2jvifgoqbqhuyvtp3wbupmxe7jwnpis4gzueq7mvb7hsjsxqd.onion (Tor addresses are a bunch of gibberish and end in .onion The Tor address will only work if you are connected to the Tor network. An easy way to start using Tor is with the Tor Browser.) The reason I moved the website and domain name URL (paemt.org) to a server at namecheap is so I could do more. Like have a forum using my address /forum "paemt.org/forum".
I haven't been keeping this site updated with the main site addresses (.org and .onion). I have all the links on this page directing to the .org address (instead of the pages on neocities).
