Member Appreciation Thread: 2018 Edition

[Hycrox]

Yes it's back. Back again. Almost 2 weeks late but it's ok. Az changed the date anw

 

Now it's time, to D-D-D-D-DDDDAppreciate! blame bibs for this joke

 

First, a quick shoutout and appreciation for the cool kids, @Azeria for doing this last year, @Guzam for 2016, @Morshu for 2015, and @Arkhi for 2014

 

Now, no sarcasm unless it's clearly meant to be a joke (do it with a strikethrough, like this), and accept all complements. Now, appreciate your dearly nerds. I'll start:

 

Spoiler

@Morshu Nice day my dude. To say you're a great guy is an understatement, so I hope you're prepared for an unforgettable paragraph. You're a really cool man, you lift the spirits of everyone around you, and you're generally just a very chill and genuinely funny guy and a great person to be around. It's been a grand time, and a pleasure to meme with you, and by now I'd say your memes give me super strength. Just with those, and by being a lax guy who can interact with anyone, even if they can be coarse and rough, you've had a great impact on the community. I wouldn't even fight you if you ate the last slice of pizza, or if you bypassed the compressor. You've definitely made my time here, and everyone's, richer, and to me you'll always be number one. May there be many more fun times in the future.

 

@Ironbound You might be my most recent friend on this list, but you're undoubtedly a great guy. You're always open to talk, and, serious or not, conversations with you are always great. Even when you talk shit about my memes. You can always give helpful advice to those in need, and can keep your cool in most situations. And you have a great sense of humor too. Know that I always appreciate you; you probably do, but better say it for good measure.

 

@Azeria Bakugo is not that good don't @ me. Real talk now, you're a swell guy, and a pleasure to talk with. Not to mention you have a lot of patience for my assery. When you're available, you can help anyone, and you're a great friend. It's been a lot of fun hanging out with you here, and I've had a great time in Redemption. May more fun times be ahead.

@Personthing You're a very sociable and outgoing person, who clearly enjoys spending time with people, and I admire you for that. You're a great guy, and really fun to talk with. You always have something nice to say, and you can bring up anyone's spirits. You can always look at the bright side of things, and you're a very funny guy too. All the best for the future.

 

@The Grinch Love out memeing time together bb. You're great to be around, and a good partner in meme. It's been lotsa fun chatting with you, in whatever language it may be. Stay cool :]

 

@Odybld more like Odybid amirite. Anw, you're lots of fun man, and a goddamn degenerate really helpful when you're needed. A weeb man of culture too, you've gave me lotsa stuff to watch. Hope you have some Great Days. Can't wait for us to eclipse everyone :^)

 

@Amakeyasiru! My boy, you're a really cool dude, and it's been a lot of fun hanging out with you over time. You've been a great friend too, and a quality memer. May many more joyous times come.

 

There will be more appreciations soon, but /lazy

 

[Personthing]

Well it's that time of year again, here we go. It's gonna sound pretty repetitive cause I'm bad at this stuff.

 

 

@Xiri It's been awesome knowing you these past two years man, (time flies, holy hell, doesn't it?) and if I hadn't met you I doubt I would have stayed with the community for very long or gotten involved with Redemption or Nations 3. Keep on being great my dude.

 

@Morshu It's been a lot of fun talking to you more regularly this past while, you're a hilarious and just all around great guy and a lot of fun to talk to in general. Also I took your just eat pizza.

 

@Hycrox What's up meme man? You've been a blast to talk to for this past year, always a laugh or just fun to be had in general when you're around. 

 

@Amakeyasiru! It took me like 5 minutes to find your forum name to ping you, lmao. You've been a good friend for this last year, I appreciate you man and it's always fun to hang out and talk about just whatever really.

 

@Ironbound Ayyy Viri, it's been my pleasure to have gotten to know you this past while. You've always got something good to say, and are always willing to lend an ear to anyone who needs it.

 

@Bazaro Baz, Bacteria, Jesus, and whatever else my phone feels like calling you at the current moment, you're a cool guy with a good sense of humor. It was great working with you on Redemption and I'm glad we still mess around in other servers.

 

@Azeria ~~Sup Edgeboy~~ My dude, you're great to have around and just hang out with. Glad that we've still been doing some stuff since Redemption ended, and you helped make Redemption be a lot more enjoyable experience to work on in general.

 

@ZEL Heyo! I'm kinda just repeating myself at this point, but it's been nice to meet you and hang out this past while and that you're pretty cool.

 

@Sardines You've always got something good to say and your presence just makes any group you're a part of better. Keep at it man.

 

 

@InnocentSerenity What's up, ya goof. You're a really fun person to be around, with your quips and generally bright and sunny but somehow snarky attitude that's just pretty great in general. I also wanna thank you for introducing me to some really cool people this past year, thanks man, I'm lucky I got to meet you, Xiri, Bibs, and Krim in Nations 2.

 

@krim Another one of the people I've known longest around here, it's been good to just chat and hang out with you. You can always make a good point even when arguing for an unpopular stance, and thanks for introducing me to some great people this past year.

 

And for everyone not pinged cause either I don't know your forum name or are part of a larger group, you guys are all awesome. Shoutouts to the entire redemption crew as well, it wouldn't have been as fun without any of you.

 
 

 

 

[Candy]

@Caimie @SilverHelio @Thundermaze @Jess @Newt @Bam the 25th @Bok Choi @CrimsonDragon21 @Archeric @Wolfox @LemonJones @Ice Cream Sand Witch @purplecicada @punkeev @LykosHand

Thanks for being active members of the Dramathicc Drama Club and making it the haven of fun and fun that it is~ Y'all are the reason it hasn't turned into yet another ded server

 

@Alistair @Walpurgis @Ice Cream Sand Witch

thx for modding~ I guess I should tag the other mods too but I'm a shy smol candy and dun know them personally oof but know that y'all's efforts are appreciated And y'all in le club too so plus points to yaw

 

@Anti_Hero @NickCrash 

enuf said

 

I'd like to also thank the mafia club for making Reborn 10x fun too~

 

Also shoutout to @Corso @Archeric @J-Awesome_One @SilverHelio @seki108 @Q-Jei @PESH1 @uberle @Bok Choi(?) and those who I don't know but secretly read too, for reading From Everland to Reborn~ I like writing by itself, but y'all make it 10x more fun to keep writing hehe

 

Also my frens whom I've interacted at least once but because my brain es a sack of candy I can't tag all of! Thx for being gud to this smol candy~ 

 

Last but not least, @Amethyst and her team for making the awesome, terrigudtastic, historic, legendary game that is Reborn A million thanks and choc and candy to you~

 

Ah this isn't gud for my anxiety, hope I didn't miss anyone

[Reignited'Light]

@Kamina I know I haven't really been the best of friends, but you are somebody who is really underappreciated in this community. You were my first friend here and that will always be important for me. I know that I'd taunt you by saying how terrible your Pokemon 'skills' are, but you are really good and you've obviously grown a lot from ORAS, being much better than I am (real tea). If you're still going to play mons in the next couple years, I know you're going to go far and it's not going to be because of luck. Besides your pokemon skills, you're aware and smart, even if your grammar and meme posts don't often showcase that. Everyone should check out Kamina because he's been a great member of Reborn for a long time and he is pretty active 

@ all of the AO Members @Moony @Lil' Baby Rupe @Void @99 Losses @Lobos @Jelly @Dark Desire @DAVIDpwns @finkeltinklewinkle @Rewer @Lord Bagel @Pixl @slant @Rukia. 

@Xiri @DJWongTong @Kurusu are all very friendly members of this community as well!

I wish I talked to you most of you guys more. I do have specific reasons for everyone of you guys, but that would be a very long text post, so only Kamina gets his own text wall. Sorry! Lots of love, though! 

[Sayia]

@Zarc @BandorKitty @Alistair @Corso @purplecicada @LykosHand @Bam the 25th @Lord Drakyle @CrimsonDragon21 @Sirius @Ice Cream Sand Witch @Venus @Eviora

The Club would not exist without you guys, thank you all for being with me, and being my friends

Sorry if I missed someone.

 

Big thanks for @Jan and @Amethyst for making two awesome games, thanks to Rejuv I registered here and I not regretimg this

 

Thank you for all the mods, who working hard to make this forum better.

 

 

 

[J-Awesome_One]

Well 1st, I wanna appreciate  some story tellers that we have on here. That would be @Candy @Jess @Wolfox and @Q-Jei. It's so fun to read through your guys Reborn/Rejuv Runs. And a big thanks is in order for @Q-Jei for making some of the sprites for some of my runs. Without him, none of those would be possible.

 

And then there's the Penta-Op crew. @nepeta100 @seki108 @wcv @DreamblitzX @pokemastercj1 @Wolfox (again) @Abyssreaper99 @uberle @DemICE If I missed anyone, I'm sorry. Man, I feel like since that's started, we've all gotten closer somehow. It doesn't feel like we're watching it separately. It feels like we all came into 1 room to watch these 5 funny ass YouTubers do this Penta-Op of this great game and then just bonded over that. It feels awesome.

 

Lastly, there's @Commander and @DerogatoryTrainer 

I like reading through @Commander's Written Rejuv Run. Sometimes it makes me laugh. Sometimes it makes me think about the game itself. I like knowing how he thinks about the game.

@DerogatoryTrainer This dude is funny as fuck! His reaction nuzlocke runs through Reborn and Rejuv so far are out of this world and just makes me almost chokes to death from laughter.

 

Ohh. And I almost forgot. @Amethyst  @Jan and @Ice Cream Sand Witch You 3 made INCREDIBLE games and I'm so glad I'm able to play them.

 

Ok. That's about it from me. You're all AWESOME!!!!!!

[GenEric]

first and foremost, i would like to thank @Zarc and @Sayia for making my early experience in the forums fun and making me comfortable in socializing online

 

thank you @Candy for making the drama club, i had a lot of fun in the discord chat

 

thanks to @purplecicada, @Caimie, @Thundermaze, @Dragoknight, @CrimsonDragon21, @Jess, @Alistair, @Bok Choi, @Ice Cream Sand Witch, @Wolfox, @Zarc, @LykosHand, @Walpurgis and co (>.< sry i cant rmb names) for making discord fun for me

 

thank you @BandorKitty for putting so much faith in me. i never felt so trusted

 

and thanks to @Amethyst for making all of this possible and revealing herself to have blood fetish hehe

 

thank you @Jan for making me realize yuri is the way to unlock one’s secret power

 

and thank you @Caz for making a game with such a splendid story. i sincerely hope that you excel in your studies

[Ironbound]

Each year, the pool grows larger and the list grows shorter; it has reached a point where I've largely been absent for the most part, and know nobody new. But that only heightens my appreciation for those few whom I do know and like.  My appreciation for Reborn (the game, the creators and the community) notwithstanding, these days I spend more time individually or in small groups with the people I have known through Reborn, than amidst the community itself. But while I may have 'moved on' from here in most senses of the term, I feel that i owe the community some consideration for being the institution through which I met these friends of mine, and that consideration merits upholding this tradition of a yearly commemoration. Shoutouts to Bibs, Arkhi, Azery and now Hycrox, all such friends of mine, for keeping this alive.

 

I never could manage sentimental speeches, nor do I think they're necessary given how well I know everyone on this list, and how well they know the regard I have for them. Many people on this list have been the best of friends for so long I can't even remember when and how we first met; others I have gotten to know more recently but have quickly become good friends too. Talking with each other frequently, and in many cases on an almost daily basis, has become a fact of life; familiarity and trust of that kind is invaluable.

 

Given that I find any more words to be both paltry and unneeded, enough of the heavy stuff, what? I'll contend myself with a mention and a joke apiece:

(thanks, Hycrox, for forcing me to strikethrough everything)

 

Spoiler

 

@Xiri ur mum lol :]

@Bazaro chandelure is trash and so are you

@Arkhi give my regards to succ-chan

@Morshu nice day

@Etesian I hope you get swept by a kingdra

@Azeria I hope you have that kingdra, but miss all your hydro pumps

@Hycrox congratulations on reaching taxable age, better file your returns for good measure

@Personthing what can I say that your phone hasn't

@Plok sos forry

@ZEL may pigeons poop on your shoulder

@Caradius a meme a day keeps the psychoanalytics away

@Spineblade thank you for the bibface, we all celebrate your gift

@The Grinch the spiders will have their vengeance

@Aishi 2piwerkflu4us

@Marcello stats is better than pure maths, meet me in the dueling grounds

@Odybld your coffee is better than you

@Commander I'd have more choice words to send your way if you showed up more often

@Maelstrom big nerd

@Godot hahahahahaha

@Noir it's been eighty-four years

@Ice Cream Sand Witch impossible to be punappreciative

 

Lastly, since it's inevitable that I'd have inadvertently omitted a mention to someone or the other, let me say that you're all appreciated and that I'm grateful to have gotten to know you. 

[Zarc]

Well , it's gonna be complicated for me cause i'm getting along with almost everyone in the forum. So i guess i will tag people with who i have more affinity RIGHT NOW.

 

 

Without surprise @Sayia : I met you several months ago and you rapidly become my best friend here. It's a pleasure for me to know you well. 

 

 

@LykosHand : You were one of the first person to wish me a great welcome on the forum , and my first best friend. Thanks a lot for your kindness  

 

 

@BandorKitty : Even on difficult moments , i never let you down cause i care about you , like everyone in the club. As long as i'm alive , you will never be alone

 

 

@Alistair I know you since more than one year now , i saw you become modo and you trully deserve it. We are sharing the same nationality and the same first name , i hope one day we will have the occasion to met irl. 

 

 

@Bam the 25th Same as lykos , you were one of the first member to wish me a great welcome to the community and you were the first person to follow me , i will never forget this  

 

 

@Corso You and i have a lot of similarities , and that's one of the reasons i appreciate you. But the main reason remain the fact that you're very kind after all. Never forget : stay yourself and happiness will surely came , believe.

 

 

@Maqqy Your message for my birthday touched me a lot. I'm very glad to know you , i wish i can know you better on the future cause i really appreciate you

 

 

@Candy You forgot me on your list , but that's wont be the case from me. Yes you're probably one of the kindness people of the entire community and i'm happy to know you. 

 

 

@purplecicada Second person i heard on vocal channel after Drak , i rapidly started to appreciate you. I'm glad to know you. I hope we will continue our LoL games.

 

 

@CrimsonDragon21  Our LoL discussion/games and football discussion are actually great ! Let's continue this cause you are an awesome person  

 

 

 

@Amethyst Since the beginning i knew you were an awesome person. First because you created my actual favorite fangame. Secondly , because i recently started to know you better and i hope it will continue like this cause you are very kind. Thank you for helping me for the LoL club  , it's a shame that we don't play on the same server , really. 

You will always have all my support. 

 

 

 

@seki108 That's true that we don't really know each others well , but you're one of the person i appreciate the most here. I hope i will have the occasion to know you better on the future. 

 

 

 

 

Honorable mention to :

And of course : @Jan for the awesome rejuvenation game , and @Caz for the awesome desolation game 

 

 

 

If i forgot someone , please let me know. But i want to know i appreciate everyone here , so it's hard for me to tag everyone  

 

 

[Q-Jei]

Hm, the list might be quite long. I apologize in advance if I miss someone, but it won’t prevent me to try. So, let’s begin :^)

 

@J-Awesome_One: You're among the first people I’ve met on the forum. I enjoy most of your runs, especially James and Matthew ones. It motivated me to do the same with Flannery. Keep up the good work!

 

@Candy: You’re a good person with a fertilize imagination. As the creator of Vanilla, you deserve some praise. Keep up your written run, your work is flawless!

 

@seki108: You were the first to notice my spriting attempts, and a pleasant member of the community. It might be a detail for you, but it means a lot for me.

 

@Zumi: As the developer of Pokemon Xenogene, you’re an exceptional spriter as well as a model for me. Seriously, never give up, I love what you did!

 

@Amethyst & @Jan: The two respective and respectable creators of Reborn and Rejuvenation. I would like to get your creativity, because I want to create my own games as well. Without you, this forum would have never existed, and I would probably not had the opportunity to do my first footsteps in the spriting discipline. I really appreciate what you did, never change!

 

@CodeCass & @Celeby: That’s always fun to be with you in the prediction topic, and I’m always glad to help you with some Reborn tips. You’re cool!

 

@SoraBell: I owe you the development of my interest with Pokemon Rejuvenation as your request was a Rejuvenation sprite. Also, I liked exchanging my opinions about this work with you. I hope you’re still in shape!

 

Honorable mentions:

@Wolfox, @Zarc, @Corso, @Trufa, @PESH1, @Sayia, @Caimie, @Sirius, @Commander, @FairFamily, @Archeric, @Maqqy, @Alistair, @CrimsonDragon21, @Dragoknight, @SilverHelio

 

As I said above, I apologize if I forgot mentioning someone. You’re all nice, and I appreciate all of you. Just stay true to yourself

Edited June 26, 2018 by Q-Jei

[DW~]

This exists again, eh? Let's get started then (No particular order -)

 

Spoiler

@Hycrox You're an amazing dude, have great choice in memes, and a nice sense of humor. I couldn't really ask for a better lad to know. Been a lot of fun with the nations 3 crew so far and I hope it continues on!

 @Personthing I only got to know you more about a year ago? It's been a wild ride^tm and all the danny devito memes have been great. Can actually talk a decent bit about irl shit with you too so that's nice.

 

 @Azeria Awesome dude that got me into BNHA right here and has somehow not banned/ @everyone'd somebody in months so probs to him!

 @Morshu Bibs, lord of vanilla and slayer of Alomomolas! Your memes are top notch and it's fun seeing your reactions in chat. Also Void Cactus is top notch. The god among gods.

 

 @Bam the 25th Always funny seeing you lust after loki. You've been a good bud these past few months and I can't wait to talk more about FEH later today.

 @Lowkey7ft4 You're a funny dude, your shitposting is top notch  (re. it's about anything he says). You're also uh..tall? That sums you up well I think

 

  @Specific Top notch stall stuff my dude. Always fun to see what you come up with next 

 

 @krim You've been a great friend since what? 2015? That's a long ass time for one and you've never ceased to amaze me.

 

 @Ice Cream Sand Witch Your puns and the sadly now dead meme of breading the fire emblem chat are/were amazing. Props to you on the breading. Honestly one of the better mods as well so there's that!
 
 @InnocentSerenity You're THE big nerd Nah just joking man, you're a cool dude. Excellent taste in idol anime as well~

 

@Sceptilespy You're actually a degenerate, but that's why I appreciate you! Ya showed up in mythos randomly one day and it's been a blast since then.

 

@pyrromanis STEPDAD, you're awesome. I hope you're blessed with bacon and coffee in the future!

 @ZEL MAma, I haven't talked to you in a while but you're still AMAzing! bad pun was intended oc

 

  @DMBY You have good taste in dictators, comrade! Also gj in propagating the religion of the God Emperor, despite it's sinful natures

 

 @Wendel The god of wendelism in all his glory! It's been a pleasure worshipping you my dude~

 @Hackspeon Only got to know you recently but you're pretty cool in your own right. 

 

[CodeCass]

I haven't been back on the forums for just overly long now, but since I've been back you all have done great at making me feel like one of the gang again! 

 

@Q-Jei: A great person who always seems happy, helpful, and respectful! Always fun to mess around in the Prediction topic!

 

@seki108: A great source of helpful info about various topics and has helped me learn more about the game! Never hesitates to help their fellow player and it's much appreciated!

 

@Celeby: Has helped me acquire some Pokémon via trades, and by pointing me in the right direction in-game. Always happy and ready to help at the drop of a hat it seems and it's much appreciated! 

 

@Amethyst: This one's obviously a big one. Not simply because she's made a game I love, but because of how helpful she is! When I first game to the forums, I was interested in doing a Let's Play of Reborn. I contacted Amethyst to get her approval before attempting that project and she was kind enough to not only give her blessing, but to send me some Reborn art and files to use for my video overlay! It's no wonder to me she's garnered such a following! 

 

@Elvenlore: Somone who's constantly helping others. Every time I've ever had an issue or question they've been more than willing to help, whether it's about the game, or acquiring Pokémon. They even went out of their way to message me a few times just to see how I was getting along and it's so very much appreciated!

 

@Drakka: A newer member but one who's stories have been quite interesting to read! Always get excited when I see a new update! 

 

There are too many folks on these forums for me to name one by one, but you all are each incredible and have made my time here memorable as always! 

[Sayia]

At the morning I didn't haved too much time, and now I realized then I missed a lot of people..

Lemme fix this

 

@Plok Njab, your jokes always brings a smile to my face (even if I still don't know you too well, hope that's change tho)

You are nice, funny, and helpful person and is not just kind words from me - it's true

SOS forry

 

@Zarc Sorry for ping again. You become my best friend here, I want you to know I really appreciate you, you know a many of my secrets. I'm really glad to have you as a friend

[BandorKitty]

So many people to thank, where do I even start?

 

@Sayia - Thank you for being my friend, for being there when I was at my worst, for inviting me into your group of friends and making me feel accepted. I can't thank you enough for helping me through one of the toughest times I've ever had to face.

 

@Zarc - Thank you for being my friend, for not giving up on me, for being there in my worst moment and still standing by my side.

 

@Dartu-san - Thank you for being the first friend I made on Reborn. Thank you for reaching out to me and helping me through a difficult time at the start of the year. Even if you don't end up coming back to Reborn regularly, I will never forget you. Maybe one day you could finish your mono run. Also, maybe we can finally watch Steins;Gate 0 soon  

 

@Archeric - Thanks for allowing me to put my trust in you and for showing me that I was right to trust you.

 

@LykosHand - Thank you for being my friend and always being there to make me smile  

 

@Corso - Thank you for being a great friend, for playing Numbers with me, for being there when I needed someone and for not spreading my info that you Corso'd around.

 

@Sirius - Thanks Jonny, for being my friend through all the stuff that's happened this year. We started talking because of the quotes thing, I wish I could start it again but you know the reason why I can't. 

 

@Morshu - Thanks for being one of the first people from Reborn to add me on Discord and for being a fellow SorrowTV fan.

 

@SilverHelio - Thank you for reaching out to me one day which started our friendship, and for being my kitty pal  

 

@Alistair - Thanks for being the kindhearted, awesome person you are, and for doing a great job as a mod.

 

@CrimsonDragon21 - Thanks for being my battle sparring partner, we should play some more sometime.

 

@Dragoknight - Thank you for being my friend while we were in the Drama Club together. I won't forget the time we spent together. Let's do well at Pokenations!  

 

@Walpurgis - Thanks for being a great friend and doing a great job of fixing save files. I wish we could talk more.

 

@purplecicada - Thanks for being a good friend for me and sharing my sense of humour. I do wish we could talk more though.

 

@Candy - Thanks for being a great person and for helping me with a lot of stuff earlier this year. I hope you are doing well.

 

Thanks to anyone who supported my Quote of the Day when it was running. I'm sorry I haven't been able to get back to it. Maybe one day I'll start it up again, just not now.

 

Also, thanks to anyone who's given me emotional support over the last few months. Thank you so much, I really appreciate it and you have no idea how much it means to me. Also, not very good at this so sorry if a lot of it sounds repetitive.

 

Well, I've done my best but I've probably missed a few people >.< I'll edit if I think of anyone or anything else to add.

 

 

Edited June 21, 2018 by BandorKitty

[SilverAngelus]

This idea is wonderful~

 

I'd like to start by thanking @Amethyst and @Jan for their super fantabulous outstanding games that, out of all other games, grabbed my attention the most, Pokemon Reborn and Pokemon Rejuvenation, respectively.  (too much commas, I know  ) 

 

Thank you @Walpurgis for helping the many that require help with their individual games. Without you, a lot of people would have trouble and not know what to do. You are most certainly a huge help in these forums~

 

I'd also like to thank @Candy for starting the Drama club and server and just being so funny and so cool in general. My lyfe took a big turn once I got to meet new people whom I'd normally wouldn't even encounter, and that was possible thanks to you. 

I know I mentioned this before, but, I really enjoy reading  Vanilla's adventure through Reborn very much! It should be published as a novel.

 

I also thank you @Eviora for being my role model (even if you didn't sign up for that ) and really really good friend. I learned many invaluable lessons from you, so once again, thank you. I hope you continue to be so, and I will also continue to be your friend~

Your novel speaks volumes about your ability as a writer, and Evi-chan, I know you'll do great~

 

@seki108 

Thank you very much for granting me a friend when I wished for one! And by that I mean Togepi! And not only did you grant me one, but two friends! Eevee! And later on (even if it was from an event), you also granted me Tyrantrum! AND I got a friend in you too! For all these friends, I can't thank you enough, but I'll say it over and over again: Thank you very muchh!!! 

Also, thank you Seki for consistently renewing my interest in these forums. I enjoy and admire seeing you writing a lot in your status updates, even if I don't know exactly what they're about sometimes.  
Stay awesome~ 

 

*heads on to an ice cream shop and walks inside*

Oh! Fancy meeting you here @Ice Cream Sand Witch! Hey, have I ever mentioned how much I really appreciate you? Because I really do! For once in my life, I got to contribute to someone's fan game, which btw, is amazing! Amazing job on creating Pokemon Spork!

 I also admire your ability to find a pun, no matter how small, anytime! Icy, you're a very funny and kind Ice Cream Sand Witch, and I also appreciate you for giving me an ice cream sandwich! 

 

@Alistair *Sniffle* I remember when you were just a wee little member in this here forums. Now you're a grown global mod. Where has the time gone by?

Alis, I am so proud of you, and I am honored to call you one of my closest friends. You're such a kind and awesome friend, I hope this lasts a long long time. I just wish you would talk to me more often.

And Alis, I wish you luck and support for your career endeavor.

 

@BandorKitty *Meeeoow* Wha-? No catnese? Fine

Bandorkitty, I am so glad I got to know you. You're a very great friend! You're so kind, you have cats, you talk to me a lot ( what I appreciate the most out of you), you're funny, and you have cats.  

 

@LykosHand Ah, the wolf with the hands in a silky shirt and a straw hat

I'll get straight to the point. Lykos, you are one of the most sincerest, kindest person on this planet and I hope your kindness can influence everyone else to be as kind. I so honored that I got to know you Lykos, and I know you'll only continue to be kind to everyone.~

Thank you for talking to me every once in a while. I really appreciate that! It's fun talking to you and trolling you.

 

@Jess

Should I break out the Deerling pic?

Ahhh Jess! You're really cool and smart and you are funny at times. I am honored to have gotten to know such you, but I wish you would talk to me more. 

 

@Sayia Ahhh wow I found you to be so kind and wonderful and adorable, please stay that way ^^ I love it when you talk to me on your own, like that time you send me Mimikyu pics! I wish you would continue to do so and more~

 

@Zarc Honestly from what I can gather, you're a really cool hardworking guy! Stay this way please~ And thanks for mentioning me for trying to help you with patching Mind Crystal. :3 Oh, and you have such adorable catsss!!! Snow and the orange one! (Sorry, I forgot the first one's name. Rainbow?)

 

Honorable mentions:

@Wolfox @Corso @Caimie @Sirius @Dragoknight @Q-Jei

I don't know all of you that well, but I do know that you are all wonderful people. Please continue to be so.

Yes, some of you I know through the Drama server, but I hope I get to know you even further.

 

I hope I didn't forget anyone, and if I did, I'm really sorry! I'll be editing in, so no worries~

[DMBY]

@Lowkey7ft4 

Can't wait until your mute is over lol

[Revan]

I appreciate a lot of people.

 

@Amethyst rekindled my love for Pokemon, as I found the main series games repetitive. 

@Jess We don't talk often anymore, but you're an important person to me in general.

@Zarc Gave me my first Toxicroak in Reborn. That's reason enough.

@J-Awesome_One My man, I will never not appreciate you!

@LykosHand You're a cool person. I appreciate you. I hope things are going well!

 

That's not it, of course. But that's what I got. :V
Thanks for being dandy. I appreciate it.

[seki108]

@Wolfox-  Probably the person I talk to the most on here now.  RWBY, Rooster Teeth/Achievement Hunter, Code Geass, the bugs in Insurgence.   Seriously, thank you for talking with me about all this stuff, even if I can't always give good responses or feedback at times.  Plus, you love Gardevoir and fairies in general too, so that automatically makes you top-tier.

 

 

@SilverHelio-  I was more than happy to provide those, and see the game updates you gave to me for a while.  Also, thank you reading all my stuff, even when I went on a semi-detailed explanation of a game you never played before.

 

 

@Candy/ @J-Awesome_One  Thank you both for provided excellent written adventures that helped see the same tale in different ways even if I'm a bit behind on Candy's atm....sorry.  Seriously, I love your innovations to the story and how you capture the characters even during the changes.  While I haven't read your's yet @Q-Jei, I'll get to it eventually.

 

 

@Zarc-  Another Code Geass fan, with a side of meme  (and a trader on the side-side).  May the Risitas ever provide you with laughs.

 

 

@Morshu (Bibs)- The main memer I've talked with here, you provide the dankest stuff sometimes.  Still hard to keep up with the name changes sometimes.  You also got me into Duel Links and comment when I complain about it, so thank you for that.  It's a good reminder of the Yugioh I remember, but still different enough to feel new. 

 

 

@The Grinch (Isa)-  Well, I can't talk about one memer without talking about their stalker  observer  fan.  While you haven't been as active on the forums lately and I'm rarely on Discord, seeing you talking about your cats and such was always fun.  You'll always be the cat-loving memer who's posts could make me laugh.  And thanks for applying to be a member of the 2hu club when I wasn't sure if I would get enough members.

 

 

@LykosHand-  The ever-present birthday card that reminds us all of each other's birthdays.  While it may be small, it always feels good to be remembered.

 

 

@KosherLexi-  Thanks for being an active the most active member of the mostly-dead Touhou club.  You still have good tastes in remixes/arrangements.

 

@CodeCass- While more recent, you did remind me of the new FLCL, so that deserves a personal thank you.  Also, you like Gunpla, so that's another plus.

 

@Avria-  First, thanks for all the early trades you did while trying to fill out your shiny dex all that time ago.  More recently, thanks for helping me found the Touhou club and talking with me about Touhou when I first got back into the franchise.  Hopefully, like the first time you disappeared from the forums, you will come back again.

 

 

@Arkiel-  Thank you for making my Gardevoir/Granzon avatar that I used for quite a while.  Good luck with whatever you are doing now. 

 

@luis @HUEnd @Greninja Thank you for all the trades with the Guild, and thanks for all the great shinies you've traded me at those times Luis.  

 

@Jess- While we don't talk as much now, it was fun to complain about Insurgence with you and Wolfy.

 

@Corso-  My fellow number counter, though I don't pop in as much.  We almost made it to Alola numbers that one time before Njab derailed things.

 

@Bam the 25th-  While we haven't talked much lately, thanks for making my watching of Little Witch Academia that much more exciting.  Also, unless I'm wrong, you were the first person on here to wish me happy birthday, just a month after I actually became active, so thank you for that as well.

 

@Paul25- While we haven't talked at all lately, you were a big part of why I stayed active the first year here, so thank you for that.  Even if I'm not as into battling as I was a year ago (and I'm not playing much Pokemon at the moment), our battles were always fun.......even with the connection issues at times.

 

@Plok (Njab)-  You singlehandedly saved my only Reborn run that was far in from getting deleted thanks to not deleting my save off the file-fixing thread after more than a month or two, so thanks again.

 

@Amethyst @Jan @Ice Cream Sand Witch @Caz And of course, thanks for the great fangames that you've provided for us and to Ame for starting this whole thing in the first place.

 

I probably forgot some people, but I tried to get everyone.  Sorry for the atrocious formatting, like usual.

[Anime]

@Amakeyasiru! stop changing your forums name >:[  You're a fun dude, and always great to talk to we had some arguments and its partly my fault so sorry about that

i appreciate your memes and the pron that you provide, @Lowkey7ft4 likes that too :3

@seki108 you're a pretty cool person, sorry im not too active on the forums and i have shit memory, if you have discord let me know and i'll add you, and if you dont ill try to be more active, i really enjoyed talking about Little Witch Academia with you, i've seen lets plays of the game LWA:Chamber of time, i dont know when the next season of the anime but i cant wait to chat more with you and get those ships sailing

@Walpurgis

@Alistair glad that i met both of you, you're great people and always nice to talk to, someday i'll be less dumb in Dnd and ill play with you

@Venus @purplecicada im really glad that i met you two, you're pretty good friends and i always appreciate hitting on venus kouhai JK

(too tired rn, i'll finish this later on)

[Eviora]

@Alistair Thank you for being my best friend and most trusted confidant. Our relationship means so much to me; you always take extra steps to take my feelings into account. You do so much for me that no summary here could do you justice, so instead, I'll just say I love you.

 

Thank you @Amethyst for putting this whole community together! I know I'm not alone in saying it has made my life much better than it used to be.

 

Thank you @Lord Drakyle for being my big broster. It's always nice to know I have someone I can talk to when times are rough, and joke around with when they're not. It's hard for me to properly describe how good it feels to have someone be protective of me.

 

Thank you @SilverHelio for always sticking up for me against myself. I know I'm not the easiest person to deal with, but I appreciate that you do so anyway. I also really appreciate your feedback regarding my book.

 

Speaking of, I'd also like to thank @BRS swag @Ice Cream Sand Witch @Bam the 25th @Jason Grace @Jace Stormkirk and @Nyaagisa The Maid for helping beta read my book. It means a really lot to me.

 

And, I'm not going to ping you all. but thanks to the entire Reborn Mafia community for giving me such a fun place to hang out and joining me in my streams all the time! You guys are awesome!

 

I hope I didn't miss anyone! If I did, I'm ultra sorry - I can be a bit scatterbrained. So, just in case, one last sweeping thanks to everyone who has been kind to me here!

[Felicity]

I've said what I think needs to be said to the people I care about.

 

What I find fascinating and cool is the fact that there's so many new faces in this topic that I don't recognise, the community is growing and branching out even now. That's damned cool to see after 4 odd years of being here.So hello to the new faces, I appreciate the fact that you're here making a good time of it for yourselves.

[ZEL]

Oh, hey, is it already that time again?
Y'know, I don't really know how to write some sort of cool intro that doesn't just repeat what I've said last time.
Glad I found my way here, thankful for all the amazing people I've met, blah blah. Something about how I didn't think I'd stay here for more than a month, and now it's been more than three years.
So here we go~

 

Spoiler

@Ice Can't not mention you first, now, can I? Last time this thread dropped, I still had to say "can't wait to see you". Now it's "can't wait to see you again".
I love you, and you have made my life a better one on so many levels, I still can't quite believe just how damn lucky I was to meet you. I don't think I'll ever get enough of your contagious enthusiasm and your godawful puns silly humor, or of tossing our various fictional creations at each other.
I hope we get to live together some day soon, but in the meantime I will fly across the world as many times as I need to. After all, we have to go visit Ron again~

 

@DJ Mewdeon ft Dan Punk Hi Dan!! Have some cats! Now that this sacred rite has been performed... Hello. You. Three years ago you spooked me by making me think I broke a rule or something when you first messaged me. Now it's, like, 2018, and you still talk to me, and man do I ever appreciate that. I don't think I can ever say this enough, but you're a cool dude with a smart head on your shoulders, and this entire place owes a lot to you. But also, like, I certainly do on a personal level, too.
You really are the whole package. Can be calm and rational and a fountain of good advice, or an endearing goofball, with a whole lot in between. (Package also includes a lot of superhero knowledge and apparently a subscription to regular cute bird content.)
For your future I wish there will be a time when you no longer criminally undervalue yourself and your efforts, and where there are less worries around to other you. Heaven knows you deserve it.
(But also :((( you now live very far away so I probably can't even see you again next time I'm in Boston, and that's sad because I liked meeting you.) ily ok

 

Hey, speaking of meeting people! @Amethyst and @CrossImpact are also People I Got To See This Year and I wanna say thanks again to both of ya for hanging out with me! It's been really cool to talk to and get to know you a bit better. 10/10 would travel across the country again to witness Ame being adorable and trying to deny it.

Man, I know I haven't been particularly active on Reborn this year, so I haven't dropped into any of the related chats very much. So I also haven't gotten to talk to you as much as I used to, @Lost Lore but this post would feel tragically incomplete without mentioning you, because my inactivity doesn't influence your awesomeness as a person.
I hope your little meowing friends are doing well, too! I hope the year gets a little less turbulent soon so that there will be more time to talk to you again, because I really miss it. I know you're like, in denial about this 5ever, but you're still one of the coolest, wittiest, fun and cute :3c folks around here. No, I won't stop calling you cute. My absence cannot change raw scientific facts.
I'm almost done with this YKW game, too, which makes it the furthest I've gotten in completing a game that doesn't have "Pokémon" in its title in 4 years or so. So thanks for the suggestion!~

 

@Wendel u smel
...Nah, man, jk jk. 'Tis the time to be sentimental, and I have a lot to thank you for, y'know? You've been an amazing friend ever since I first got here, and I don't think I can fully express how much it means to me that we get to hang out and that you and your family have been so welcoming to and accepting of me. Makes me a whole damn lot less lonely, and it's always really comfortable to pay you a visit.
A+ cuddle buddy, and always knows how to make me laugh and cheer up.

Not to accidentally elevate a self-proclaimed deity even further and all that, but you're really cool and goddamn you are getting me so close to trying out DnD.
You're also a very caring person, so there's that, too. Thanks for being my friend, mate.

 

@Odybld piz- Ok no I'M SORRY DON'T LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT
I was gonna be like "If I had to be pseudo poetic I'd say you're like a storm, always ready to show up suddenly and causing chaos in your wake" but that's actually not fair, because you usually clean up after your chaos, and also because it flies blatantly in the face of how often you've helped me get my shit together and guided me out of messes I've found myself in. I know I'm not the only one who can always count on your insight and honesty, either.

Still, though, you're so much fun and I hope you know I thoroughly enjoy the measures you take to entertain yourself and others. Your cleverness is almost underrated at times, "gdi ody". Also, I typed "I hoe" first, and feel like that's very appropriate to remark now bc I know that's a typo you'd appreciate.

@Morshu it took me a moment to try to remember which username you currently have, dammit

I hope you know that I'm absolutely not exaggerating when I say that you're easily one of the most likeable people on here. I know I could, like, make silly jokes here, but the truth of the matter is that you have a way of creating a comfortable atmosphere around you, and I can never help noticing how good you are at making everyone in a conversation feel welcome. And it'd be a shame to leave that unappreciated.
You always know when to show yourself from an empathic, supportive side, and when to lift everyone's spirits with humor, and I'm honestly super thankful we're friends.
But also, I hope you get an alomomola encounter a day :]

 

@Ironbound Tfw started talking to you a bit back when you got active here, because you like bugs and seemed cool. And somehow, that actually ended in a friendship over the years. Man, I could say a lot about you. Mainly about how much I admire, now as much as back then, how dedicated and disciplined and hardworking you are. And that I respect you a ton. And that you are one clever bastard with a+ humor. And how you're an amazingly supportive and caring friend. And also that you're fuckin' adorable.
You're one of those people to have intensely interesting conversations with, and while we certainly have our misunderstandings and often stand at very different viewpoints, I greatly enjoy all of them. I've honestly learned a lot from you, and hope you know how grateful I am to have you call me a friend.
...But also, I recently remembered those old times when you wouldn't touch memery with a ten foot pole. We've been a great influence on you :]

 

There's also, like, a ton of people who I've been talking to more frequently this year, and I wanna round y'all up for a warm 'thank you'.
@Hycrox @Azeria @Personthing @Bazaro @Caradius @Plok @The Grinch

I've gotten to know you guys a bit better in the recent months, and it's been a blast! You're all cool af and I'm looking forward to hangin' out more.
I know some of you I've talked to on-off in the past already, but definitely not this much, aha. I'm actually pretty bad at keeping up with people through DMs, so having gotten to talk to all of you through various means has been really helpful.

On a similar note, though, can't forget to appreciate those people who I've known for a while now and still am happy to chat with when we get the opportunity~
@Spineblade @Arkhi @Alex @Amakeyasiru! (dyou know how long it took me to realize who's behind that username lmao) Y'all cool. I know I'm not really good at private convos or anything, but whenever I'm in a group chat with you, you're a ton of fun.
(And yeah honestly same @ DW, I guess that's just how it goes sometimes, but not constantly talking to one another doesn't mean you'd be any less welcome to do so whenever you want, ain't nothing wrong with just chattering away every once in a while.)
(Which i guess applies to Alex, too. I know we're not really doing this whole DM thing any more these days, but I very much still remember how supportive you've been of me and I damn well enjoy seeing you around.)
I feel contractually obliged to let Spine know I saw a Livingstone's Turaco today and it was the best thing that happened to me all week.

Funny story for this year's post: I get to @Maelstrom this time around. Dude, I know I already mentioned it to you a while ago, but I legit thought you didn't like me for a solid two years or so. Actually I don't even remember any more when the convo happened that gave me the impression, but I was new and you were still auth and I kind of tried to stay out of your way a bit at first because I worried that I annoyed you and wanted to, well, not let that happen again.
And then it turns out you never actually had a problem with me, lmao. Which is the best possible ending, because you're cool and it's been nice to have started talking to you this year. Maybe if I hadn't been so silly before I'd have found out a lot sooner that you're actually quite the warm person and an inquisitive and good listener.
Maybe I should've just listened to Ice all along, who was like "Mael is a cool guy".

@jasmiinininja I hope you're learning to blend in with those americans already, what with you being off to the other end of the world soon! I had to look back and make sure I really wasn't just imagining that it's really bee two years that I've known you, because time flies and then i was like "wait, that long, really??" but apparently it is.
You're such an amazingly lively and friendly and funny gal; honestly, every conversation with you is a blast because it never gets boring with you, and I know I'm not alone with that opinion at all.
I wish you all the best with your current endeavors and want you to know I believe in you!
Also, please say hi to doggo for me ok~

@Matryoshka I don't even know how often you still look here nhsdfjhv,fjaöj ut whatever, this would feel incomplete without mentioning you. You glorious person, you. I'm so glad we started talking, because you've only ever been an amazing friend and an absolute joy to hang out with.
Talking to you has always been so easy, because you never seem to run out of interesting topics, or out of humorous responses to every dumb thing I throw at you :'D
I'm just gonna... book yo for every Eurovision final from now on, and also still hope I get to visit you some time soon~ 'cause god, you're a cool person and I can't stress that enough.

@Ruby Red Ah dang it's been quite a while now, I'm really sorry I'm too scared to ever like, just DM you, but I hope you've been doing okay! I was really glad I got the opportunity to get to know you, with all the boundless creativity you bring and how enthusiastic you get when you start talking about things you're invested in.
You're an amazing person who deserves to be cherished, that much is for sure!
Also, you're cute and that's not something that can be denied :]

 

[Raindrop Valkyrie]

Not really much l can contribute to this l don't think this time around. l'd probably just be repeating myself from years past, walking the same path already trodden. There's no need to repeat myself l'm sure those that have earned a piece from me already know and understand how l feel at this point ~~though l'm not the best at this kinda of stuff l do so and a lot of the time assume people get it. Been learning not always the best to do such.~~

So many people in here that l barely recognize. Must be getting old and irrelevant at this point XD Old man Hukuna never leaving the ol' RP Forums, and CW, even after he's retired to go live in the mountains. lt's interesting to see l suppose, though in some ways bittersweet. Feels like a whole different era at times, one l'm not really a part of. But this thread not really about regrets, sorrows. lt's to celebrate folks in the community at large, new, old... otherwise. Those hat play a part in this giant passion play, from the Leading Roles down to the last stage extra. Some of our parts may be small but even those small parts are important. So, for those that are oft forgotton, the people not memorable enough to get in a main post and are only included as a footnote; Those that aren't often named in posts or even any at all.  Well, this post is dedicated to you. 

The people that stick to the quieter sides of things, and aren't the loudest in voice. For those that contribute with a whisper that ripples into a lion's roar, but by the cresendo no longer there. Perhaps l'm the definition of your patron saint. Though... probably a tad arrogant to say that of one's self l admit.  So, in some kind of way l believe you deserve to be recognized here with all the others. l don't have names l'm afraid and perhaps, that is the way it's meant to be, perhaps that is how some prefer. So, for those that remain nameless for whatever the reason this post is for you. 

Cheers loves, and to another good year. Hukuna Sensei, out~  ~~oh yel guess my hearts are emojis now...~~

[BRS swag]

Wow, never thought I'd pop up here in the appreciation list. I haven't been much active for 3-4 weeks or so. 

@Eviora The beta reading was a great experience and rewards will definitely come to you for the great work. Keep truckin'.

@Amethyst Thanks for Reborn and this community. Great place and I don't have to say anything more about the game.

@Jan Thanks for Rejuv. One great experience. I didn't steal the honey so I'm glad you removed that quest.

@Caz I know you rarely come here, but thanks for desolation. Best game, hands down, due to the fact that I could relate to some characters.

@Commander This is more like an appreciation than a thanks, but, I appreciate the fact that you critic every game on the face despite however popular it is. Keep doing it.

@Jess Yes, bug pokemon are great. I like them too. Just wanted to put that here.

and thanks for many others whose name I can't remember atm.

[CrossImpact]

@ZEL likewise, haha. I'm still very sorry for keeping you waiting for so long. that one was. on me. our trip was very enjoyable! I'll make sure to notify you should Ame find her way back again. ^^
P.S. pls send the photos you took of us (I'm not sure why you said you need to adjust their size last time on stream, but I'd be thankful if you eventually did it ^-^)

@Amethyst I don't think we need too many words here. ^^ ~ thanks for being you, for fighting so much both against and for yourself (and others). you are remarkable - and so are your efforts.
especially as a person you've gone a long way since I've known you. we will watch your career with great interest.

@Jan you seem to be all right? somewhat? not bad, not bad. I'll try Rejuvenation after your next update. now let's bully Monodam!    I'm  oh...

@DJ Mewdeon ft Dan Punk and Dan, I hope you'll find every stability and happiness you need (in whatever context you need it, may it be financially or other). bad ends deserve to be axed. I guess that pun doesn't make much sense if you haven't played 999, but you got the expert right next to you. you're super pleasant to talk to, and from what else I know about you, I think it's worth to make that friendliness your most outstanding quality - consideration is king, so out to Korvanjund with you and grab the crown. ... ... that would be Skyrim.
