I know I already made this post on my other account, Homo Sheepitus, but after reading much old and unread mail, old posts, and what not, I feel like I have a better idea on how to truly put into words how I feel about this and the past 7 years.

While I read the mail, it truly did almost make me cry. Reading random conversations my 13 year old self had with others, my many bids to annoy Damen into promoting me, people calling me out for being rude, friends reaching out to me asking how I am, no matter what the subject was... it a brought a smile to my face. Even if the words weren’t necessarily good, they did make me smile, why? Because this community, and these people here were the only friends that pudgy little boy had during those times.

It made me laugh when various people would apply to my CPPS garbage I made, or the applications to my many sheep clubs, or just some other small thing that was happening in our worlds at the time because, those times were so simple! Most people, including me, were just 10-14 at the time and our biggest issue was winning ranks, or making up clubs, or making up game shows on these forums... and these things were so important and frustrating to me at the time, but looking back its all I had and it makes me so, so happy to be able to explore all the memories.

There’s so many great people who I conversed with and talked with and when I checked there profile they were last online maybe a couple years back, maybe more, and I’m resigned to the fact that I may never talk to those people again. But god damn did it make me so freaking happy to look at all those things and relive those conversations I had a little dude :)

I hadn’t always done right in my time here, I was a really insecure kid, I lied a lot on here and it became apparent through some of these messages. And I hope whoever I was good friends with at the time will get to know the real me now, and I also apologize for all that, but we were kids, and this was our world, for better or worse !

I just want you all to know the depths of my gratitude for taking me in with open arms those 7 years ago, because you all have made an incredibly huge and lasting impact on me. From the nerdy, overweight, depressed and plagued with family issues little boy that I was back then, I wouldn’t have wanted it to go any other way, because then I might not have gotten to know you guys.

I wish to be able to stay here on these forums until they decide to close it down, but until then, here’s to 7 more years of memories :)
