[center]Before I begin, I just want to say a universal thank you to all those I mentioned. No matter how personal the experiences were with each of you, I'm glad I had them and I hope I can have more with you all. As always, happy roleplaying![/center]

For the majority of my life, I have tended to be a person of a reclusive, introverted nature. I was never one to talk to anyone, much less share anything with another person or a group of them. No matter how I felt, I kept my thoughts and emotions bottled up, locked away deep inside. Ultimately, I was lost, and I never had anyone to talk to about events that had hurt me, events that troubled me to reconcile with or move on from.

Then, by chance, I found each one of you on this website. I, along others, had shown interest in a potential roleplay, but the OP had disappeared and never responded again. I was going to move on, just as I did with other dead interest checks, but then [@wolverbells] had asked in the thread if any of those previous interested still had an interest. She made her own interest check, and one by one, I had the chance to meet each of you in both of the new interest check and the roleplay.

Normally, I would have thought each of you as just another roleplay partner, another person that enjoys roleplay just as I do, yet I felt there was something different. Time went by and posts were made over nearly a month, but during that time period, I feel as if I've become good friends with you all. Not only do we share similar interests such as anime, but we've also had similar experiences. I shared personal experiences in the past that had hurt me, and unlike others, everyone of you were supportive. We had laughs sharing our stories, and I don't feel as if I've had another group of friends like you in the past.

I know this is awkward and hard for me to say, but I'm happy that I met you all. I've managed to get stuff off my chest that had been bothering me for months on end, and for the most part, my confidence is greater. Each one of you encouraged me in some manner, and I'm grateful for it. I hope we can stay friends for a long time, especially through whatever trials life forces us to go through.

Once again, [i]thank you.[/i] Especially you, [@wolverbells]. If it wasn't for your revival in the interest check, I would probably never have to meet any of the awesome people I listed above.

Meatball, Fat Jesus, even the Shining Sunbro. Lord, you have went by many names, yet you're always have been a friend to me. Even through I've only known you for four years, so far you have been the only person I know in real life that has an interest in roleplaying, especially tabletop roleplaying. We talked about roleplaying countless times during lunch and our classes, and even not long ago you decided to join this site and roleplay with me. I just wish to say that it was nice finding someone to talk to about an interest that I had, and sharing the experience with a person I've known for awhile.

Keep on swimming in the Ysran Sea, [i]Butterfly[/i]. Here's to another four years of being friends.

Wick, I have only known you for roughly a month, but during that time, I've been granted the chance to get to know you. We've talked about places we've been, and even movies we've watched. I know there has been times when I'm slow with a response to you, and also times when I hadn't even noticed you responded. I'd like to say that I am sorry for each of those times, but I also would like to say that I'm glad I know you. We've both enjoy the fantasy genre, and I have enjoyed your posts in the past. 

If it is anything to say from a person that you've only known for a short time, I do hope we can continue roleplaying together in the future.

I wonder, did any of you think I would have passed up a chance to mention oranges here? Jokes aside, I enjoy roleplaying with each of you, even those that have disappeared or officially left the roleplay. All of us have shared a laugh, whether it was [@Lauder]'s kobold disguising herself as a rock or [@dereken] creating the orange "meme." The post speed might grow slow sometimes, but no matter the speed, you all have captured my interest with your posts. I'm glad to be a part of such a great roleplay group, and I'm looking forward to more comedic jests and enjoyable replies from those that stuck around. For those that have left, it was nice knowing you, and I hope I can roleplay with you in the future.
