Argh, I'm tearing up. >_<
I've only got four people to address personally. I know and care for more people, but these four are definitely the big ones. Others will be addressed by name, but you lot will be thanked for more. Another reason for there only being four 'big ones' is because of my knowing them better, and for a longer time, I suppose.
Cae: Oh, what can I say. You were my first friend on PPT, and you continue to be one of the closest [friends]. I've far too many memories of talking to you, being insane and random with you on AIM, and of the two of us just chatting for hours. I'll never forget you, Cae. Or shall I say, Car?
(Or perhaps just Darcie would do...) *Hugs*
Yoshi: I've said it before, but I'll say it again: You're too cool for your own good. o_o We've spoken one-on-one only a few times, but I'll still remember them. I've had fun reading your journal and then teasing you about things, like 'Yvon' (bwahahaha), the 'get-hit-in-the-head-every-day' thing, and countless others. You, Yoshi, are awesome.
Tasha (Sugarini): You don't get on the computer that often, now, but that doesn't mean I won't remember you forever and ever. We've had fun, whether it was when I was in ASP, or in the BG usergroup, or when you hit 5k posts and were celebrating... Or, of course, when we were scheming with the rest of QETYOG. >:]
Lillie: God, Lillie. What can I say. You're an amazing person, with an even more amazing personality. Probably the most kind-hearted soul and purest of heart person I've ever had the pleasure of being friends with, you have a permanent place of residence in my memories and my heart. *Glomps* I hope you become a famous author, as you definitely deserve it, with your talent and more.
<b>Everyone:</b> Ahh. There is no way I can cram everything I want to say into one paragraph, but I'll try. I'll start with specific groups of people.
<b>To the staff:</b> You guys are amazing. Amazing for keeping this forum and site running, through both bad or good times. Amazing for being some of the friendliest people ever, period. Amazing for knowing exactly what to say, when it needs to be said. I have to admit, I feel pretty insignificant when compared to some of you, but even so, every mod, SM, and admin has made me feel loved, in some way or another. I don't really know some of you, and a few of the staff I've gone through rough spots with. Even with these complications, we've all gotten along well, and have always patched things up in the end.
There are no words that can describe my eternal thanks to you all, or how much I love you guys.
So I'll just say thank you for the experience of being able to work with you, and thank you for keeping my time here safe and happy. Again, thank you.
<b>To my friends from the early ASP days of action:</b> You all know who you are. I'm going to address each of my ASP/QETYOG friends (except for Tasha, as I already thanked her).
Punky/Destinyte, you were a great pet during the times of QETYOG. Not only that, but an even greater friend. We've definitely had fun together.
Sunnie (Zero!)... Good God, girl, you rock. You're an everlasting ball of energy and joy, and your hyperness and insanity is contagious. I admired you long before we were friends, and when we finally befriended each other, I was ecstatic, because you were so COOL. Continue being amazing, my friend.
Amber (HPfan36)- Ah! Not only are you a great RPer, an HP fan, and a member of QETYOG, but you're a good friend! You're far too great.
(Long live QETYOG!)
Benladesh/Mr Goldfish/Max- What can I say. Your energy is catching. You never seem to stop being, well, you, and for someone like yourself, that's a good thing. You, Sir Goldfish, are awesome.
Cheese Pants- Awesome person, awesome friend. That really sums it up, for you.
<b>The HHP gang:</b> If you don't know what HHP is, well, it's a small forum I frequent. Most of the members are also members here.
HHP.
Liv (Anubis): Liv, you're just... I can't think of any word that describes you. Awesome? No, more than that, I suppose. Ah well. You're... Great! That's it!
Great RPer, great friend, great admin [at HHP], and great person to worry with ('AHH HHP'S GONE!!!', remember? One heck of a long freak-out session).
Jade (_jade_em_): Jade, you are literally awesome. Watching you work on HHP makes me feel guilty for not doing as much with PPT. If Liv's the mastermind behind HHP, you're it's Queen.
And you're far too good of a writer for your own good. Like with Lillie, I hope you become a famous author.
<b>The RPers:</b> Some of you I have already mentioned. For those of you I haven't... Here you go.
Glass Charm/Glass Miracle: Your RP was the first I was ever in, almost one year and a half ago. I was in that thing for near seven months, I believe, re-joining every time you re-made it. I never regretted doing so, as 'the Faerie RP' started me off on writing. I made mistakes, and down the path of my RPing life (which, unfortunately, is now quite dead), my experiences in FRP helped me learn more, and eventually made me a better writer.
To my great jealousy, you're far better at this [RPing] than I could ever be. It doesn't help that you're a wonderful person, either.
Thank you for everything.
Twizzler0171: Gosh. I haven't really spoken to you, but my time spent RPing with you has been terrific. You joined the first RP I ever made, 'the Magic Within', and I was quite thankful for that.
<b>Those crazy people from that crazy chatroom:</b> If I address each of you, I'm going to start sobbing. So I shan't. I'll just say this: *Glomp* I love each and every one of you. Dan, Spira, Sasha, Ayse, Frankie, Chass, Sakura... And everyone else.
Thank you, you crazy weirdos.
(And I haven't been in the chat for a week or so 'cause my computer's dead and this one doesn't have AIM or iChat (the horror!), and my mom won't let me download anything...)
<b>Everyone else:</b> I've modded some of you, I've fought with a few, and even so, I love you all. Thanks for making my time at PPT a wonderful experience.
