My dear NTWFers,
Most of you won't read this, some of you will. I doubt a lot of people here remember me, but if you do, this letter is mainly to you guys who do.
I joined this forum on October 25, 2002 - Two and a half years ago. I have posted 1427 messages, and I have been published in the Neopian Times 24 times. I have seen, done, heard, and said so much during my time here. I'm writing this to you so you can know what you've made me feel and accomplish while I've been here.
1430 posts may not seem like a lot, compared to some people's 20,000. But it is actually a lot, when you load up a page of every single one of those posts (which is what I did). Even though it took a while for the page to load, it was worth the wait. What I saw on that page brings back so many memories - good ones and bad. Those posts let me see what kind of person I've become.
Since I joined this forum when I was 11 years old to now, I have matured so much. I've gone from being an annoying little girl to a crazy hyper even-more-annoying girl, to insanity board/tabloids junkie, to a Weewooclaw/Smarauder and to a somewhat not-as-insane teenager.
It's just so cool to be able to go back and sort of re-live the past. As I skimmed through some of the 1400 posts, I got to see all of the things I ever posted and got to look back on threads, and say "Hey, I remember that!" or "Oh wow... that was so funny". It may sound weird, but it seems like I had just posted those messages yesterday.
The NTWF is the greatest forum I have ever joined. It's given me the opportunity to meet tons of awesome people and have fun. Just generally this forum has given me lots of memorable experiences. There is no other feeling than the one you get when Battlesunn tells you that your story is hilarious; Tdyans telling you that the idea for your story is really great, or even someone telling you your series made absolutely no sense and was extremely random.
When I look back, I remember all of the great things that happened to me here - The friends I've made, all of the inside jokes - the list is endless. I look back and remember the people who inspired me. And even the people I inspired.
If you joined when I was away (6 months), or don't even remember me at all, then this letter probably sounds crazy. But I used to practically live here. I love this place, I always have. I just want to thank Shidi, wherever she is, for creating this forum and inviting me to join. I also want to thank Mr. Shankly... and of course Snowflake. I thank everyone, the new and the old for what you've given me. You've touched me. And I hope I've touched you in one way or another too.
You people think I'm crazy now. But it's true! It comes from the heart. [/cheesyness] XDD
