No, but there is something to being there at the start. I was. I think Problem Sleuth is a better web tool, but early Homestuck was intimate. Hussie was a part of the community. He let the community decide what would happen next with controlled input. All the first 4 kids' names were community decided. There were fun teasers for what would come in the forum. I miss it. That said, all that shit went away when the Troll society was introduced. There were just too many fans after that for Hussie to realistically talk to. Shit became more structured. So while it's kinda true you had to be there, most of it you'd get from reading it.
