The Great Member Appreciation Thread 2020 Edition™: Appreciate Harder

[Azeria]

Been about two years since I posted within one of these. Gunna try and keep it to new people/people still within the general community so; Here we go. Words are hard so this'll largely be brief where possible.

 

@Azzie 

Heya name-buddy! Kinda weird to think you've been here a whole year now. You've been a wonderful presence on the server, both moderating side and as a user and a delight to talk to personally. We share quite a few interests and it's honestly always nice to talk to you about fics, OC's or anything really. I know you've been in a bit of a slump the past couple days so I hope you start feeling better again soon, you rock!

 

@ZEL

Heretic.

No seriously though, getting to know you better over the past two years has been a terrific experience, especially with all the interests(and tastes!) we share. Sharing art and memes with you is very enjoyable(whenever it ISN'T CURSED). You're also a delight to see participate in discussions, always giving very well informed points and getting your views across excellently. Idk what else to say, words are hard haha.

 

@Posty@Ruby Red

Grouping you two here because you tend to come in pairs. You're both great people, vc's are a delight and full of laughs usually. Hoping for the best with Desolation for y'all!

 

@Ojama Yellow@Hycrox

Neither of you need this but just a s/o, probably some of the best friends I've made in this community over the years.  Absolutely wonderful people that deserve the best in life, keep on trucking lads.

 

Figure I'll also do this now since it seems to be a thing;

 

@Jan@Zumi@Alex@Winter@Ramiru@Sardines

Working on Rejuvenation with y'all's been great and even outside of that, sharing memes and talking has been fun in general. T's been a time getting to know you guys. Stay awesome gamers.

 

@Omega

Quick s/o, you've quickly become one of the most fun people for me to be around. Easy to mess around with, share a lot of the same interests and similar types of humour. You enjoy watching me suffer in the games I stream a bit too much but its been a ride. Hope things work out well in Uni for you after quarantine ends. 

 

I think that's about it from this past year alone. I'll do a couple more from people I've only recently met though.

 

@Cerise @crimsoncrim

Hey you two! Your arts great, hearing others talk about their OC's is always nice too. Ceri, you've only recently joined the server/s but you've made your presence known with a bang. Also definitely looking forward to your work on starlight crim
Definitely hoping to speak/get to know both you more in the future!

 

 

[MintMan]

Alright, my memory has been sincerely lacking so this will be the last one of these I make, promise. First off, thank you @AmethystI  truly think you are amazing, all the work you do is super fantastic and you're a genuine inspiration to me. Secondly, @andracassI think you're one of the most humorous and wholesome people I know, I always find myself laughing or happy when you're around and it's genuinely great. Cheers to you. Thirdly, @Azzieyou are legitimitely such a ray of sunshine in the community and I know you probably hear this a lot, but seeing you does WONDERS for my mental and my mood in general. I don't know how you do it but it's literally amazing to me. @IkaruIka you're an amazing fella too and though we don't talk much, I appreciate you when you're around. A ton. @FelixI know you've recently sought distance from reborn, but I will always remember and cherish our friendship. You're an amazing person and I feel like you've helped me a lot more than I can express here. Finally, @Godothey big fella you're the bEST. i almost forgot you twice but that doesn't mean crap because you're one of the best friends i've made here and you're an absolute gem of a person. thank you for everything Godot. Thank you to everyone. Have a nice day. 

[starrycrim]

Me, working up the courage to post this asdf- okie so I haven't really been an active member of the community for a super long time despite being a member of the forums for like? A year and a half? Send help. I am merely a childe in the community, but like, genuinely,, becoming more active has been one of the best decisions I've ever made. Every time I step into the server or the forums and see someone being sweet, kind, hilarious, or totally goofy (or all of the above), a smile is just instantly brought to my face. To me, the Reborn community has been one of those places where you know you've only been there not-very-long, but it feels like it's been a lifetime. And just like? Wow. I appreciate that so much. Even if I forget to mention you (I don't know many people's usernames on the forums, ack-) I appreciate you more than the world! You, the person reading this! You are loved and appreciated and I'm glad you exist  

 

(Okay so I am coming back to edit this after I'm like. 3/4 done with writing all of these because I did not expect to ramble as much as I did. My bad but like I love yall. Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.)

 

Okie! Let me get started~ 

 

@andracass I. literally adore you so much asdfsdf I don't even know how to put it into the words. I was like. mildly intimidated at first? But like,, upon getting to know you? You're so genuine, and so sweet, and so kind, and I count myself so lucky that I've been able to get to know you a little better recently because you are literally such a gem of a person and deserve the world. You're so sweet, have such a good sense of humor, and always make me laugh and smile. You're such a positive and kind light  and along with Ame, are such an inspiration for the community, and I just catch myself like, inexplicably smiling whenever I see you pop up in chat to say hi. I literally remember like, sitting there while I was on my break at work and thinking in my head "god is this real I've literally died and gone to heaven" when you and Ame messaged me for the first time about Starlight because I was,, so excited ahh.. Thank you for all you've done, you're such an inspiration to me along with Ame, the time and love and care that you put into development is so admirable and I,, literally love you. Thank you for being you and I hope we can grow closer in the future as well  I love and appreciate you so much! I hope the day treats you well today, because you deserve all that and more. 

 

@Amethyst I,, wow I genuinely do not have the proper words in my head to express everything, asdfj- I am booboo the fool. You honestly make me smile so much and I just get like. inexplicably happy being able to talk to you. You have always been an inspiration to me, even back before I didn't know you well, and honestly, Reborn as a whole has really been a big part of my life and has helped me through some difficult bits of life back when I was younger so I really just... cannot thank you enough for everything. Just like I said with Cass, I am,, genuinely the luckiest person to have been able to get to know you a little better recently, because I genuinely love and appreciate you so much and am so, so beyond excited to be able to work with you and Cass and the rest of the Starlight team. You are so kind, so sweet, and are such a good, genuine, creative, brilliant person, and everything I see from you just amazes me more and more. You've been so helpful and kind with advice, feedback, and tips, and I just catch myself feeling so grateful at the most random times to be able to be a part of development, even if I'm so, so new to it. Thank you for taking a chance on me ;_; I won't let you down! I want to let you know you are loved and appreciated, and I hope your day is amazing today

 

@Ikaru I do also want to thank you and the rest of the Reborn team for your brilliant and hard work! Like I said to Ame, the game has been very dear to me throughout a lot of my life, through the best times and the worst times. I love the thought and love poured out within the story, the depth of the characters, and the uniqueness of it. Thank you for all that you do, while you probably get this all the time I just want to let you know that you all are loved and appreciated more than I can put into words, not just for the brilliant work you do but also just for you as people, the people behind the development of a game that I have incredible fondness for. I cannot thank you enough. Thank you. 

 

@Jan While we haven't been able to talk as much, I just genuinely do not have the proper words. While I can and will gush about my love and adoration for Rejuvenation, as I only really got into it relatively recently but have absolutely not regretted it. It's such a unique experience with such depth that I'll catch myself rambling and theory-crafting and then it's like "oops I've been at this for literal hours." The characters, the world, are so charming, so unique, and the story is unbelievable. The depth and layers within the story, and the characters' relationships, just how attached I've grown to some characters is really testament to just how talented y'all are at this. Finding a story-focused game with so many other brilliant aspects just makes me go absolutely wild. I love being able to support you, and get to know you a little bit better through the Arcade, even though we haven't got the chance to talk all too much, I just want to let you know you are appreciated, more than I can put into words. You are such an inspiration within the community, and as a person, just so down-to-earth, kind, and absolutely hilarious. I hope that we can maybe get to know each other a little better in the future! I really appreciate you as a person, and as a friend, and as a developer, and I cannot thank you enough for all the joy that you've brought me ;;; I hope that you're taking care of yourself, as I worry about you too! I love and appreciate you  I'll give you all the grand pianos that I have in my heart <33

 

@Zumi I. wow. Catch me like, doing a deep inhale as I prepare to absolutely go feral. You really were what inspired me to join the community and become more active and honestly? I can't thank you enough for that as you have introduced me to something that has genuinely brought me so much joy. You are so, so sweet, so hecking funny, and make me just like. smile SO wide like AAA. You are such an inspiration to me, and I literally. adore your art so dang much. Like, what the heck. It's been insane to see how much you've improved and by god it makes me so proud. You are so unbelievably lovable and talented and have put so much effort into practicing art, music, spriting, et cetera, and like? It makes me so unbelievably happy and proud to see how much that's paid off. You are genuinely one of my favorite artists and biggest inspirations and all the work that you do for Rejuvenation is drop dead insane. The gorgeous music, beautiful sprites, charming VS portraits, and everything else, you're,,, literally brilliant?? I could gush for hours about how much I adore your work because WOW but like. you as a person? Are so amazing that that deserves to be said too. While we haven't gotten the chance to talk all too much you are so hilarious, and so kind, and just like, I'll die for you on the spot if you asked. It's been a literal honor to be able to meet you and get to know you better and I'm just? so happy that you exist. You're such a kind, cool person and the silliest moments in your Discord server make me absolutely crack up and always make my day. I am just an absolute fool and too shy to reach out in DM and say hi but like.. I would love to get to know you better in the future aaa and I think you're super cool? I love and appreciate you and your existence so much wtf I hope you have a brilliant day because you deserve all that and more asdfjksd  

 

@Azzie okay Azzie oh my GOD I will literally go feral for you. You are genuinely one of the sweetest people I've ever had the pleasure to meet, and I literally will never stop gushing over your writing and TT because I love how much passion and love you put into your work. That art piece still makes my heart smile ;> also we have like? So much in common and it makes me literally so happy that I was able to meet you. I was literally looking back on our DM and was genuinely blown away that we've only been chatting together for like a month because it genuinely feels as if we've known each other for forever and it makes me so unbelievably happy. You are such a ray of sunshine and such a positive, kind, inspirational presence, and such a good writer. God I aspire to be as brilliant of a writer as you are. I adore you. Also I really want to talk about musicals with you sometimes because I have noticed you dropping those references occasionally hehe and I am SUCH a nerd for theatre and will literally ramble over it for hours and like wow. You're one of those friends to me that I genuinely can't believe it's been such a short period of time because I already just feel so comfortable and happy around you that it feels like it's been way longer than it actually has. Also did I mention you're such a talented singer? Because what the heck you're incredible. You are so valid and so kind and are such a cool person and I love you farther than the moon and back. Have a great day  

 

@Posty YOU ARE SO COOL AND SO FUNNY ILYSM WOW!! You're such like, a bright and cheerful presence that whenever I see you in chat I'm like "wow ily." You have been literally nothing but kind to me and helped make me feel so welcome in the server when I was super shy about talking and like genuinely I cannot thank you enough for that. You work so hard as a mod and like DAMN son I'm so proud of you for Deso! You're such a hard worker and I genuinely cannot wait to see all the wonderful things you go on to do. Thank you so much for being you because god you deserve the world and I'll die for you. I love you so much friendo, keep being amazing

 

@Ruby Red I genuinely do nOT have the words to express how much I love you. You were another! one of the people that really inspired me to be more active in the Reborn community and to join the server and be a little less shy about posting my art. You are so brilliant, and your art is drop dead gorgeous. You have such a unique and distinct style that it just always brightens up my day. You are such a kind and good person too? You literally deserve the world. You are so talented and so wonderful and such a genuine inspiration to me and I love you so much god. Your art is so brilliant and no matter how my day has been it never fails to make me smile and make me happier. I'm so excited and proud for your work on Desolation, everything you've done is so, so wonderful so far!! I think you're super cool and I love you and I can't wait to get to know you better in the future 

 

@MintMan KYLE hi!! Okay so genuinely you are the nicest person to me and like I do not deserve you at all wow. You're so hilarious and kind and always make me smile or laugh (or both). You are so kind and always just make me so happy and god man you deserve the world even if I am absolutely AWFUL with words in which to describe it. Thank you so much for being such a kind part of the community;; it really just made me feel so happy to be there and so welcome and god I just appreciate that so much. Thank you for everything really, bless you so much and it always makes me so happy to talk to you. Keep being you because you're wonderful

 

@Azeria Az okay wow I love you. You are so sweet and so nice and just such a welcoming and friendly presence? While we haven't really been able to know each other for all too long I am so gosh dang grateful for every single moment. You are such a cool person and I genuinely admire you so much even if I'm too shy to say anything about it askdjfsd-- just know you are appreciated and loved so much!! I hope that we can talk and get to know each other more in the future hell yeah ily  

 

A few other people I would like to thank!

- Brave: I love you so much! You're such a kind and just purely good presence in the community and have made me feel so welcome there. Keep up the amazing work on the team and as a community member, it's appreciated more than I can say <33

- The Reborn Discord and Forums Staff Team: Y'all do so much work that just 100% goes on behind the scenes and unnoticed so I just wanted to say that it is vastly appreciated! As a mod for another fangame server I know the struggle LOL. Y'all are so underappreciated and deserve the whole world and the work you do does not go unnoticed. You've helped create and maintain such a wonderful environment here in Reborn that has made me love the community so much. I love and appreciate all the work that y'all put in to keep the place running, you all are so fantastic. 

- Anyone on the Rejuv/Reborn help channels that has helped my dumby self when I get stuck. I love you all even when I'm dumb as bricks. 

 

Thank y'all for putting up with me and the entirety of this post essay LOL I love you!! I love this community more than I can put into words and you all make me so happy  thank you for such an amazing time here and I hope for many more!!

A special thank you to @Edo, @keyblade336, @Gastronely, @Duskfang Shadowpaw, @Crystalrage and @Starry Knight! Whenever there's someone in the community looking for help, your names keep popping up in the comments! Your efforts are part of what makes this such a lovely community.

 

And how could I forget about @Vinnie, @LeoYT, @Dai Laughing and @Lostelle for guiding all of us through the game at one moment or another. Thank you for the great tutorials!

@ Commander for absolutely nothing.

My work here is done

 

 

Been pretty busy so maybe I'll do one later

[Hexagoen]

Hi im late to the wholesome party, but better late than forgotten right?

 

I've been thinking alot of how I was going to write this, because I think that superlatives are stupid, because I absolute love and cherish everyone in this community, and coming back after 2 or so years inactive, seeing what this community is like reminded me a lot of why I stayed in the first place. 

 

I can't fit everyone here, some people I don't know as well, some are inactive, but ily guys all the same  So here are a couple people that stand out to me particularly, or have shaped who I am as a person today, cause holy shit I actually grew up (not mentally in the slightest) in this community :') 

 

@Amethyst Hey, you make a really good game, and created an even better community. I can't believe some stupid Shofu series got me stuck here but here I am. You're probably tagged in pretty much every post here anyways, but I wanna show my appreciation nonetheless.

 

@Jan @Zumi @Azeria Hey, you guys also make good games! (just wanted an excuse to tag more people I like lol) 

 

@Arkhi Dude you're like my favorite cali mathematician lmao. You've been such a good friend over the years.

 

@Rosesong My favorite resident musician! Hearing about your experience in music school and teaching (and all of us hyping you up for your recital) probably had some point in me wanting to pursue music as well lol

 

@brave idk your forum name: To many your an old face new, but to me, im pretty sure we only started to know of each other this year when you came back lol. You are a good person man, super passionate about serving this community, and being a positive impact here overall.

 

@chxxo my favorite uwu person lmao. your timezone allows me to see you when im overthinking some random thing at like 2am lol. You're a pleasant person to talk to in general!

 

@MintMan I genuinely don't know anyone more wholesome in this server, like you just find some way to make us all feel good for like absolutely no reason and I love it.

 

@Azzie probably the most noticeable person when I first came back here, thanks for helping me get situated here, and for being a genuinely nice person to talk to!

 

@Starry Knight Thanks for the super cool metal album! been listening to it, and its good background music, which sounds weird since its metal and not calming at all, but it works haha.

 

now for some old people which may or may not still be here idk.

 

@Vinny super cool dood

 

@Skeleton super memorable person! If you see this, thanks for moderating the reborn MC server w/ me lmao, even if that eventually went nowhere, that was still a place w/ alot of memories.

 

@Wendel (I know you're still here lmao) @Zekktech @InnocentSerenity @Bazaro @roo (rip) god I forget who else, I think it was a dozen or so peeps: The reborn civ 5 group. those were fun memories, in the skype group, chatting with y'all, playing civ (even though I sucked), and just having fun in general lmao. Thank you Zekktech in particular for being so freakin generous and giving me civ 5 for free, god just remembering those times brings me back to fond memories. 

 

---

 

I guess In closing I just wanna say, this place is special. Just before I came here, I was in a hard place, a toxic community both online and irl, and I came here out of sheer nostalgia. And if there is any constant in this place, its that y'all are some of the nicest people I've known ever, and being here, brought back some of that positivity, I didn't know I needed again lol.

Better late than never I guess.

 

Amethyst- As we all know, we wouldn't have this lovely little sometimes chaotic place to call an online home without you. Back when I discovered this place in 2012 I never would have imagined I'd still be here today. Granted, I'm not nearly as active as I once was but I still exist to some degree. Reborn made a rough part of my life a lot easier to deal with, and I would not have met any of the people I did during that time if not for you creating this community. So, thanks.

 

Ikaru- Bro, you're the unsung hero of this place imo. Or rather, you're basically Reborn's Batman. You and Amethyst have held this place together very well, and all though your appearances to us mere mortals is rare I appreciate the times you do show up with some funny or sassy comment/reaction image. Hopefully we can play PSO2 together! You're an awesome man, Ika, and I don't pick favorites when it comes to admins but you're totally my favorite

 

Azery- We don't speak as much anymore which is something I'd honestly like to change. I know we shoot the piss about each other all the time, but in the end I hope you know I still consider you a buddy. If nations 4 takes off(and at this point I'm still hoping it was some sick joke) we'll definitely have more shenanigans to experience.

 

Brave- Even if you're auth again I'm not entirely sure you even check the forums. I'm gonna lean towards the off chance you do. I want to start off by saying sorry for my joke the other day. My fault for scheming with Neo honestly. I joke around a lot, too much if I'm being honest but I should have known better. That being said, I love the hell out of you man. You, as well as the rest of the SU gang are my closest online friends and I hope nothing ever changes that. I know you'll do great things. You have a strong sense of justice, and really great morals. I'm honored to be considered your friend.

 

Azzie- Honestly, I can't say much but from what I gather you're a really good positive influence. And as the world is now that's a really good trait to have so keep it up.

 

Bibs- Do I even need to say it? You already know.

 

Godot- We meme each other a lot but the game discussions are always nice even if we don't see eye to eye on some things. Aerith sucks and XBC2 is better than XBC1.  There's not much fun if you agree with everything your pals say though, so the differing opinions are welcome and usually exciting.  If I'm being real, back when I first joined I never could have seen us interacting as often as we do now. Granted, back then I was more focused on playing Pokemon than anything else lol. Either way, glad we are. Stop calling me by that cringe nickname though.

 

 

 

My cereal is gonna get soggy if I drag this out anymore so I'll just throw out a quick appreciation for the rest of the auth team and the community as a whole. You all make this place thrive and make it an exciting place to be. Without the community, and the auth team to manage the madness that exists within Reborn couldn't survive. So keep being awesome and Reborn could surely last forever. 

 

Or until Ame gets bored and yeets us all into the cold, black void. 

 

 

[chxxo]

hi! this is like, my second real forum post?? wow. i really, really hope i won’t miss anyone, because there are so many people i want to thank very badly. i know that im pretty new to this community but i have never regretted becoming a part of this haven. im not very good with words but i'll try!!

(wait, can i?) i also am aware that im rambling now, but ill go full steam ahead! i used to be a ball of nothingness lurking around doing voodoo in the reborn channels but i stumbled upon the lobby, and was very much shocked to see everyone there - i don't remember much of the details but i do remember a very drunk cass and a bunch of feels and the next thing i knew i was crying just a bit. all i know is that it was a wonderful night that brought about many different (and welcome!!) changes into my life. i get this feeling that there's just so much more that i could say, and there really is, but i'll settle for this : ily and i thank you from the bottomless pit of my heart, because you're a great person, and i really really appreciate all that youve done for me. (and pls, no more you-know-what :c)

for khrona and bazaro, i think i've known you all for a slightly longer period of time, but as time goes by (this is really cheesy) you both are still blessed and i appreciate you for being here for me. ill try not to annoy you all as much! >:)

bibs, i havent known you for that long, but you are just this extremely cursed/hilarious/precious ball of not-honey and did i say hilarious?? i dont think i did, you are incredibly hilarious and youre so fun to talk to ily……

kyle!!!! best dad, literally always makes me happier seeing you in the lobby. even though timezones are bad and i always see you go "good morning" , these little interactions still make me a little bit happier. thank you!

last but not least, hellscythe, you're that older brother that always looks out for others, and is always willing to hear people out - you also give great advice and i appreciate you being here in reborn, really! i hope to get to know you all better ^^

@Skyseer Arex

Spoiler

hihihi!!!! i'll always remember you as that one friend/therapist that is always willing to hear others out, and is never afraid to call people out on their bullshit. i must admit it's a bit scary at times, but i also respect that a lot! even if you may not think so (why :c) ur an amazing person who cares about others in your own way. i appreciate you! *hug

@Ruby Red You have got to be one of the sweetest people I've ever met. We met over our shared love and sympathy for fictional characters (and also the discovery that I'd seen, and cried at, your art before), but as I got to know you more I just love you so much. You're so incredibly talented at art and writing- your art glows, it's so beautiful. And you're also hilarious, and adorable, and so, so kind. You were one of the first people who really made me feel welcome in this community, and I'll always be so grateful to you for that. ♡

 

@Posty: Right from day one of us knowing each other, you've been a kind soul who always works to make people feel welcome. I know I go on about how much you make me laugh, because it's so true- I laugh so much on calls with you and Ruby that my mom knows you both by name now from asking what's so funny. But you're also a really genuine, sweet person. Heck, the first time we really met you were basically defending me from a rude person. I always know if something's getting to me I can talk to you about it, and I know you know you can talk to me too. I'm so incredibly glad to call you my friend. ♡

 

@Azeria: Name buddy! First off, I also want to thank you for making me feel welcome around here. It's been a bit of a pattern with these so far, I know. But you've been a friendly, helpful presence. Before we really knew each other you helped me when I got stuck in Reborn and Rejuv, and I'm still picking up tips from you. When you DMed me having found my fanfic I thought I was going to die of embarrassment, but you were sweet about it. And I know it's a bit silly, but that little bit of encouragement from someone I respected has really meant a lot to me, and it helped me want to keep writing. But what means even more to me is our friendship. You're hilarious and warm and kind (and a fantastic writer), and I'm so glad to know you. ♡

 

@crimsoncrim: I honestly don't fully remember how we became friends, it honestly just feels like we have been since we first spoke. You have the most vivid, magnetic, sweet personality that just paints everywhere you go with brightness, and I got caught up in that and swept away in your river of sweet comments and adorable, beautiful art. Honestly you've brightened my day so many times, and encouraged me to do things I never thought possible. And through it all you're a complete sweetheart, and hilarious, and I feel like we can really talk to each other. Please know you're always welcome to talk to me about anything. I love and appreciate the heck out of you. ♡

 

This one's kind of a twofer: @ZELand @Ice, you both know how much I adore when you tell me stories. Ice, you have the most amazing characters, and I'm always so happy when either of you tell me about them. It makes my eyes go all starry and my heart shine. But even more than that, you've both been such fantastic friends. Ama, you're warm and funny and I think you may love books as much as I do, and I really deeply admire your way with people, how you're so good at seeing the humanity and decency of everyone in any situation. You make me want to be a better person. And Ice, you're hilarious and warm and you make everything you talk about interesting. You've introduced me to some wonderful music, some beautiful FFXIV lore (It's usually sad! But it's always fascinating.) and we've had some really real conversations. I appreciate all of it. You're both my cherished friends and I hope you know how grateful I always am to talk to you both and that you can always talk to me. You deserve nothing but good things. ♡

 

Shout outs, as well, to @Ame, @Cass, @Winter, @Zumi, @Jan, and all the wonderful staff teams on both Reborn and Rejuvenation. (I won't ping you all, you probably get enough of those.) Not just for making beautiful games- though, that too- but for being sweet and considerate and funny people who always seem to care about the people in the community. All of you (especially you five) have made me laugh more times than I can count, and all of you have in different ways made me feel welcome. And certainly, all of you have helped to make this community a better place. ♡

 

Finally, some general comments. To the sweet people who hang out in Reborn Discord, I appreciate you all and I'm grateful to you. To everyone who posts anything creative, I hope you know that my day is always better for having seen the things you made. For some folks who may not even see this, but who welcomed me with nothing but kindness, you are truly wonderful people whom I'm glad to know. And to everyone who's posted on this thread so far, and everyone who posts after, I'm so grateful to you for making this community a happier, brighter place.
