The Rat Hole

The name of The Rat Hole

I know what you’re thinking, “odd name for a website that has nothing to do with rodents.” Yes, it is rather unusual; but that is part of the charm.
The story starts back in 2005: Hiro had just hand-written his first site in html code, The Realm. Ardus Cain from The Games Page forums had just created a new forum with invisionfree, The Rat Hole. The two combined forces with The Realm linking to The Rat Hole Forums and each admin convincing their friends in their respective countries to join up. And thus began the TRH community.
Over time Hiro began drawing more and upgraded to a wordpress blog in 2007, naming it fondly after the slowly dying forums.
A few years passed and the forums finally went silent, but the art blog continued. At the start of 2010 Hiro’s brother Munkii offered to host the site on his domain tonyfendall.com; this union bringing before you what you see now.
