Never taking you for granted again
a year ago
First off, I haven't said it here in any formal capacity, but may Dragoneer rest in peace, whatever you might think of him I can only thank him for creating such a wonderful site that I've hung out on for nearly two decades now, and the fandom wouldn't nearly be the same without it. My deepest condolesces to family and close friends especially.
Now...wow, that was an intense couple of days, not knowing if I'd all of a sudden lose my page on here, but also two decades worth of fandom history, go completely up in smoke just because some wannabe Hitler Youth member got bored, failed to adequately entertain himself, and took advantage of a vulnerable situation to try and twist the knife further.
Which is why it is great to hear the site is back, things are cleaned back up and how we left it, and things are slowly getting back to normal, but it goes to show how fragile the site and its history can be. So I suggest if you like a piece of art on here, or have conversations worth saving on here, you should probably save them. Now I dunno if this site will last 1, 2, 5, maybe another 20 years, hell it might even outlive all of us and live through the aeons and empires, but it could also disappear tomorrow, so just in case.
I'll get to that, and maybe I'll get back up and draw stuff again, or divulge on how things are going, or just post another birthday journal in a couple months. We'll see. Take care!
