Member Appreciation Thread: 2015 Edition


Recommended Posts

For the original thread, look here. (thanks Arkhidon)

So I was wandering around some of the old forum threads around here, when I stumbled across Arkhidon's Member Appreciation Thread. Imo, letting people know once in a while that you appreciate them, that you like them or just respect what they're doing is a good thing. And that's why a new Member Appreciation Thread has been put up now.

Same rules apply as in the original topic. No sarcasm, unless it's pretty obvious that you're kidding and ment as a joke for your friend. The use of strikethrough is recommended here. And when someone compliments you, don't deny it. That is all.

For starters, the people I would like to give my thanks to:

This is a really amazing thread. I wish I could do the same, but I'm a bit timid to speak up about how I feel, in a open topic like this. I'll message the people who really made this place special for me myself, whenever I feel like doing so. Thanks for bringing up this topic, Pineapple.

I AM THE REAL SHADOW, NOTHING WILL EVER CHANGE THAT

Man, I'm touched. You know the same goes for you.

I'm afraid I'm not going to list out 20+ people like Bibs because I know for a fact that I will miss people out and feel so fucking guilty for it so I'm going to say this. I'm afraid to think where I'd be without this community and am so thankful that I clicked that one Shofu video. God bless that salty, salty man.

I have plenty of people to thank, but first, I'd like to thank the whole community! It's been a fun time with all of you, and I hope we'll still be friends in the future! Also, all of the Developers, who have made this game (and also Jan and Zumi for Rejuvenation), since it's a lot of fun!

As for now, here are a couple. Might do some more later!

Thanks to Azery! Although we'll never agree on Resetti or Wigglytuff and Leech Seed or Perish Song, we're still friends!

Thanks to Shing! You've friended me since I've joined the forums, and we had a blast during the beginning in Onyx Arcade!

Thanks to Oris! We were on opposing sides during the Afoxalypse, but that was what bonded us! Hope to see ya again soon!

Thanks to BBD! You've helped me a lot before, and although I got more posts than you quicker, it's all cool, friend!

And I'll stop here cuz I have homework to do, but I might do some more later!

Okay it is time for me to jump in. Thanks to:

Tomas Elliot AKA Tomas for being a cool guy who knows a lot of competitive (should ask him to teach me NU some day XD), having fan-game-related dreams that I can contribute to, and for being awesome in general and having his head full of cool concepts for pretty much anything.

Hukuna Fulmine AKA Lupo di Fulmine AKA Lord Graterras AKA Huk AKA FreeHukunaHugs for being sort of my doppelganger as we are so similar in so many things, for being such an wesome writer and for having so many cool ideas.

Azery AKA Azeria AKA Duck for showing me that there are people lazier than me in this world being so funny and knowing so much about coding.

Nova AKA Mini-Shade for making the work in the se7en project so much easier for everyone. I mean seriously dude you do the work of ten men in a night XD that's crazy

Dark AKA DarkSpite AKA vsx AKA Vijay for putting Azery to work being a great member of the se7en project.

Shing AKA ShingSt, Chubb AKA Chubbthepig, Ashes AKA Eterna AKA Synn AKA Oxyde AKA Cyan for how awesome they did my onyx arcade period in the forums, and I wish I could have another onyx arcade period soon, that shit was pretty fun. Shing for being a good friend in deviantart as well as in here, and Ashes for having so many name conflicts unresolved that are just hilarious every time XD

And since I don't want to write much, pretty much every single person or animal in these forums, since you're all awesome. I mean there's Vinny, the elf, there's also jericho, and poptart, and poptart's girlfriend, the goomy fanboy, bfrog (who hasn't been online for a time now ;-; ), the sims girl AKA ioshay, lagless the pencil sharpener, and cepheus the wizard, and sleppu and hakutaku the artists, and pineapple, and Deadpool that apparently is also Nickcrash which is fucking cool to know, and Jan, Zumi and the reju team, and well anyone who I didn't mention receives a thanks as well.

I'd like to thank Kaito for being a swell guy. He puts up with me, and lends an ear when I need it. I couldn't ask for a better friend here.

I'd list more, but none of them show up anymore.

Hmm. First I thought that maybe I should skip saying something here, because I haven't been around for very long yet and didn't make that much private conversation with people yet.

But perhaps that's exactly why I should post. Because despite being new, I've already met great people, and I'm very thankful for that.

For starters, how about Odybld and DarkSpite who went out of their way to message me.

I really, really suck at keeping conversations going because I feel like I'm annoying, but I appreciate it a lot, and I'm sorry for just... dropping it like I did.

I'm a very awkward person :c

Similarly, shout out to Wendel for being awesome and fun to talk to.

One of these days I'll take you up on the offer to visit you, and you better make sure there's cookies.

Dan totally needs more than one appreciation week, because yo, he works really hard. And is super friendly, too.

Where can I donate to sponsor you a professional massage or a holiday trip, because you totally deserve both.

Last, but definitely not least, Ice. You know why you're on here.

Literally the coolest, hoping to chill with ya IRL in the near future.

...No, for real, I couldn't be more glad to have met you. Thank you.

Amethyst:You're an amazing person,you are the,or should I say one of the people that keeps this community toghether. The work you put in the game is amazing,it always manages to keep me occupied or amused when I'm bored.

Dan: :]

Wait you want more?

Real Talk here,everyone loves you,you're the most active auth around,constantly giving up your own free time and sometimes more for us,even if we give you a hard time,you're always there. Don't change,yer great :P

Vinny:Our resident Weavile lover,he was gone for a bit but recently came back in the surge of returns like 2 months ago. Whenever your there,it feels as if the server/whatever we're talking is more lighthearted for some reason. (razor claw plz Weavile is neeeeeddddeeeed)

Jericho/Uncle Jerry:You catch me on my bullshit from time to time and are generally a pretty casual guy,that and yer a great mod. Keep up the work you've been doing in the game! click here for fun

Kuro:Havent talked to you much recently but you're a cool person,get the pronouns mixed up from time to time but that's a personal mistake.

Alexus:You're nice,I can get along with you fine and for some reason,you get pleasure out of calling me Azert ;~;.I don't really mind that though,yer nice and stay that way :P

Kyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyoyo:You're literally always there,nearly if not more than Dan,like Vinny,you put some humour every time you're involved in a conversation and I love it lol.

Wendel:You're like the annoying,evil older brother lol,we've got similar interests in stuff so I can relate with you. I wouldnt be as active without you man!

Pineapple:Hax0r Extraordinaire zzzzzz y u gotta hax me in CC brah :[ JK Lv u <3

Dobby:Elf's are cool,Dobby's even cooler.....You're alright,very funny at times and call me out on my shit which I can appreciate. You're also one of the people who inspired me to be a better rper so that's a thing :P

I've got more people to add but it's late,I'll add more later or make a new post with those,but for those people,thanks you're what makes Reborn amazing for me,and I hope we can keep it this way!

Lots of love and appretiation to Nova for that incredible asdf Ame he made, among other things. Also for being the moest possible Shade there could ever be.

Big shout to Deadpool for after-midnight student cooking. I feel you bro. Also, lots of general appretiation and sympathy.

A great thanks to Vinny, Jericho and Simon for their help. I'll keep it up soon!

Lots of love to Alexus for the priceless statuses.

And lots of appretiation to Etesian for a) being a brick, B) being the resident moveset guru, c) that priceless avatar, d) the username I totally failed to recognise, and e) him writing lengthy pms from his phone.

Much thanks to Shing for his helpful rupees donation!

DestructiveSkitty always gets me with her topic titles. Always.

And I forgot Zumi for being a fellow Ampharos lover, giving me the real Vile Plume sprite and also her endless bouts with Jan via status

There's a lot of good and funny stuff going on, but I'm still new around here, sorry to everyone I don't know well.

I am afraid I'll forget some people. If I do, please tell me. It is not intentional, and I am happy to have you in the forums.


Amethyst: Thank you for your awesome character, and for being the mom of the community.


Skitty: Thank you for being so nice, lending an ear when needed, and being a cool girl in general. You gave a completely different meaning to the saying "fight like a girl"


Yashasgupta: Well, you're awesome, and we have almost the same taste of humour. One of the people I could totally hang out with irl.


Notus: My first friend here, a funny and good lad. Stay true to your dreams.


Jericho: Strict and intimidating, but with a heart of gold.


Hilda: Thank you for being the other mom of the community. One of the sweetest people around.


Qaaz: Funny and just lad. Knows when to conduct a mature conversation and when to make fun.


Odybld: Thanks for being a bro. I've been watching you helping people around, and we have some of the best conversations, especially when it's late.


SpiderDan: Thanks for being so friendly and finding time to deal with people's problems.


Hukuna: I don't think there's anyone here who doesn't like you. Stay cool, fun, and a lightning dragon who obliterates anyone who messes with him


Vinny: You're great whether you are playing in the arcade or welcoming people in the Grand Hall. People like you for a reason. Even if you're a Sneasel, you don't give people the cold shoulder.


Sheep: Thank you for being a kindhearted, friendly, and patient guy (given you read everything here). You're also a Heracross.


Pineapple: Fun to talk with and even more fun to organize things with you. If I ever wronged you, I am sorry.


Dobby: The amazing Elfun in the forums who's trying to become better each day. Thanks for bringing smiles to so many faces.


Azery: You are amuzing and no list is complete without you. You are also a Scub.


Alexus: You are a unique person in the forums. Keep up the insanity and funny posts.


Umbreown: Thanks for your dark humour, to the point remarks and interesting personality. Master of insanity.


Vex: You are either one of the most friendly people ever, or just a very cool guy.


Kamina: Thank you for being that not-so-serious friendly guy that reacts well to humour.


Kurotsune: You couldn't be missing from the list. We appreciate your working hard, but we also enjoy your trolling everyone once in a while.


Shadow Tack: Thanks for not killing me yet. You're full of surprises, and I mean that in a good way.


Sparky: You're a sweet, likeable person. Reborn's pet Jolteon.


Shing: Fuck you mate, Shing's here. And he's actually here to stay. Cool and friendly.


Stratos: You'll always be Lt. Surge for me! I wish we could chat more.


Sonikku: Wazzup? Thanks for being such an amazing person, laid back and joyfull.


Arkhidon: Thanks for the music, trying to make this community a more organized and more beautiful place, and thanks for the fish!


Etesian: Everyone I speak with looks up to you. We haven't spoken much, but you're such a punny guy, I can't beleaf what I've been missing. Leavanny sucks, but hey, nobody's perfect, right?


SuperJanBro: You know who that fellow is, and you love him, not only for rejuv, but him being a cool guy overall.


Pyrrhon: The demon of fire incarnate. You're great to chat with, we have similar interests, and even if you associate yourself with flammable substances, you're quite a cool guy


Tomas Elliot: You know when to appear serious and when to project your sense of humour and make people like you. Stay true to yourself.




I would also like to thank my mom, my dad, my little brother and my grandparents for making me the awesome person you guys think I am.

I love you all, I trully do, and it means so much to me.

Well then, where to begin.

Thanks to the game developers team for making the game.

Thanks to Chubb for making an assload of guides.

Thanks to Yash and Wander for making my RP experience so far very interesting.

Thanks to the people who posted in my Bemusings and Questions thread.

Thanks to all y'all I didn't mention, but I don't know a bunch of you. Lel.

THIS MEANS WAR

Jokes and that^^ misguided fool aside, I don't have too many people to list, because timezones and because Showdown always makes logging in a 5 minute ordeal.

Amethyst and the entire Dev team: Simply for making the game, because of which this site exists and we all have a second home of sorts. I'll never forget this place.

Derpy Simon: Ever since I first started doing my thing in the Team Showcase section, it always felt like he's been supporting me in a way. It was a PM from him that even made me make that guide.

Vinny, Dan: I really don't think I need to say much, all's been said already.

Dobby: Just seeing any of your post of just...you being your flippant self never fail to make me smile. You and Azery also got me past Florinia in PMD: Reborn, so thanks for saving me hours.

Sonikku: Speaking of people that are never serious :P Never had a "proper conversation" with you, it was usually just happening to meet you on the server and just going with the flow.

Deadpool/Nick: For generally being pretty chill and especially for letting me live after a storm of puns don't think those are done yet. And for giving me an excuse to post here it'll be a very casual war

Yash: For some fun chats and "constant pestering", a.k.a letting me kill boredom. Seriously, spam away~

Arkhidon: For the constant supply of music and recommending One Way Heroics to me. Good thing you do that for free, or I'd be knee-deep in debt by now :P

The entire RP section: For letting me drown my boredom with oh-so-many interesting RPs to read.

SHIA: If 19 pages of a back and forth in PMs isn't enough to show that you get along with someone, I don't know what is. Thanks for a ton.

Gutten_Tag: The guy I learned the whole Team Shocase trade from, for giving me a "role" to fill around here. Who knows whether I'd still be here without him so blame him :P

Aaaaand probably someone else? I'm very sorry, anyone that knows me well knows that I have the memory of a mentally-retarded goldfish :P

I really need to get on the server more, there's a whole lot of awesome people on this site and I'm losing out every second I'm not there Damn you, Showdown login BS!

Wow... what is this warm and fuzzy feeling I have? It is foreign to me... ((it really isn't I am just being an over-dramatic silly person.))

I actually really had no idea I meant that much to really anybody around here XD. Honestly.. It humbles quite a bit to know that so many people have so much kind stuff to say to me lol. I am not really used to it to be honest. I am sorta a huge loner by nature and I tend to really withdraw from people rather than engage etc... This place has kinda forced me to not do that lol. Like, I am the head of two sub-forums so it is sorta hard for me to hide like I usually do. I didn't think I would even still be here to be honest. I am a wanderer by nature and I don't stay places long. So, people rarely truly get to know me to any capacity. Reborn... is different though. It feels kinda like a home especially the RP Forums. They are my place to jsut escape things. It is sorta my passion project and a place I am building up just cause I want to see it flourish. It has really made me want to write and expand my own skills. So..

I will for now thank all of you for one thing. Giving this ol' Sensei a home. Lupo di Fulmine can finally stop roaming the world all by himself, and actually feel at home. I've been a lone wolf too long, muuuch too long. It is nice to have a place where I can just enjoy the company of other people and friends lol. Perhaps I will put up a bunch of individual ones for people, but for now just this.

I am greatly surprised I was mentioned at all lol, but it is good to know I have left that impression on so many of you lol. It makes all this worth it. So thanks to all of you, it means a lot to me.

C'mon now Huk, don't play dumb XD. Did you really think the phrase "Everybody loves Hukuna" that Elliot and I often use was meaningless?

You guys are all so amazing for making and answering this topic. Warms the heart, honestly.

I can't not upvote everybody.

I will miss people, I'm sure, but I have to show my appreciation to at least some people. I'm not good at saying good things, but here we go:

If you're not on here and we're friends it's either because I thought I'd already listed you when I thought of you or because I have a headache right now and forgot you (in which case I feel terrible). Or both. Or possibly we just never speak anymore, in which case you should totally poke me so we can do so

Lots of love to Alexus for the priceless statuses.

Wait. Really? I didn't think anybody even noticed those TBH
