It's somewhat ironic, considering the target audience of this site. :)
Just because we use this site to discuss old macs it doesn't mean we have to be able to work on this forum with said old macs. I, for one, have absolutely not interest in browsing the web with my old machines, I like to do with them what was intended, and while they were made to handle HTML/FTP/Gopher they're not particularly well known for processing javascript, CSS, and ajax.
Obviously I'm slightly biased given my project, but why not? It's not like the site can't gracefully degrade for older tech (it's themeable after all). There are always reasonable compromises that can be made for accessibility, and it *is* fun to get older machines doing modern tasks if for no other reason than to say you can. (Or, in my case, because you actually prefer the older Mac OS.) 8-)
