I suggest something entirely different. Basing a speech around an internet site can be seen as baffling, stupid, pointless, or all three and would also not be very interesting to hear overall.

Also, some of the original members aren't here.

I agree with the Therian.

You should do a speech supporting the efforts of the Dark Side.

What kind of speech? What's the purpose of it? It's kind of difficult to reply anything meaningful without knowing any details.

But anyway, dmods sounds like an easy subject to talk about. You could mention that people have released hundreds of add-ons for the game, maybe talk about how dmodding has changed over time, or what kind of impact popular dmods have had, or whatever. Or just talk about some single dmod you have played at more length as an example, to meet the time limit for your speech. (If it has one)

Also check out the articles, there should be plenty of material to find stuff to talk about. Especially Dinker's View, if you want to mention some of the more influential people in the site's history.

I think if you make whole sentences of that, it already exceeds the minute he has.

If you still read this before the speech, check out Mike Snyder's first post. He makes some historical remarks in there which seem perfect for you.
