ORIGINAL FORUM MEMBERS UNITE!

At least I'm not the only one haha. We were friends in real life. 

I am and was Darkriver13 I can't remember what rank I was might have made it to warrior.

Okay, this sounds stupid but HOW IN THE WORLD DO YOU POST LE THREADS IM SO CONFUSED X"D

I was Venuspaw ! I think I was maybe an elder ??? I'm not quite sure. I was on around 2010-2013, when I was tiny lol

I was HappyTolko. I forgot what my rank was but I think it was StarClan member.

I was Ouka on the old forums. Can't for the life of me remember my old rank, but I haven't been on it since 2010 which was 7 years ago! Really missed the forums, such huge nostalgia for me so I'm glad this exists.

It's insane to realize how long ago that was. Eye-opening, too.

My original account was Amberface. Heh, I was young when I made that, back in the early days of the forums.

But eventually I found people were ignoring me, and it felt like something I hadn't done anything. In truth, I was too young to be polite, my posts were god-awful, so of course people avoided me.

But I eventually came back, under the screenname Samandriel. I understood it was a fictional angel from Supernatural, but at the time I hadn't watched to that point yet, so I took it at a grain of salt. I just simply liked the name. In fact, if I had an opportunity to change my name today (I wouldn't, but let's say I had to), it would be Sam. Maybe Samuel, with Sam for short.

That account, and the interactions through it, have had a profound affect on me. First forum mate, first close friend whom I could share secrets with, and most importantly, the community on the Art Forum. There, I met my best friends, some of whom I keep in touch with even today, and I met my girlfriend.

When the forums shut down, I stayed in touch with many forumers. But one in particular- we were very close even then- gave me their E-mail. We exchanged stories, even showed our faces, and suddenly I felt really close to them. I kept my real name secret then, still staying behind Samandriel, but it didn't change how we felt.

About a year ago then I gave my real name, and asked to date her. We haven't broken up since <3

But I wouldn't have met her, I would venture to say I wouldn't be who I am today without Samandriel. In honor of my old account, I named mine here the same.



Edit: I should honestly mention a few people here.

WildestPath : You're the light in my life. Stay Wild, and guide me on our path. (No puns for those numbers lol)

Birdsong231 ♬♪ : You were closer to me than anyone ever had been at the time we were forum mates. I'll never be  able to thank you enough.

Mᴏᴏɴ - - : You stylized my writing style. Honestly, I write because of how you taught me to improve my writing. Though it was trial by fire, I learned to write quicker, write more than single-sentence responses (I was writing paragraphs worth when the forums ended because of our roleplays), and most importantly you helped me insert emotion into each phrase. I think that was our friendship, that the connection between words and ourselves came from. Thank you.

Dragons Vein : We still roleplay to this day. Frankly, you're one of the most fun people to roleplay with. And I feel if I had a problem I needed to discuss, you might help me.

𝕊’𝕞𝕠𝕣𝕖 : Another teacher I need to mention. We talked and chatted, and I was forced to up how much I wrote for my responses to you. Not to mention, my love of short story writing came from you- seeing your stories inspired me.

Fuzzymask : Your imagination is so amazing. How I learned to make characters came from you, and that glorious mind of yours, that has such incredible ideas. I still remember Atsuzz fondly.

Blizzardwolf : Did I ever tell you, yours was the first piece of artwork I saw on the art forum? Basically, you were one of the people who brought me into the community. I'd thank you, but you've gotten tired of my thanks by this point, probably. So... thanks X3

I hope all who are mentioned will join this game of "What does your name mean"

Fuzzymask- i had just became Super Message Board user when it shut down. I dont think any one really remembers me i tended to stay in the art section .3. with my mascot Mudbelly.

Samandriel Aww thanks <3 I will forever remember the many rps we did on the old and new forums!

Samandriel - You're very welcome, Precious!! I still don't know any ways to thank you for showing what it's like to feel loved. You taught me what I want in a man, and let me tell you that you have all of those traits! Loyal, funny, understanding, caring... You put me on Cloud Nine!!

Birdsong231, Elder, member for almost an entire year. It was August of one year before WCF shutdown. (I can't remember what year it was...)

I was *~*Lightningblaze*~*, but that account got banned so I came back as *StormBlaze*.
I think I was StarClan leader for First Blaze, and a StarClan member for StormBlaze.

I was terribly active near the end of the forums because it just seemed like there wasn't a lot of freedom, and there weren't a lot of good roleplays that interested me... and the forums were set up so horribly that I had no good way to remember what topics I was part of, so I would forget!
But I was a very active member before that, and I think I joined around... Well, shoot, I can't remember. I know we didn't have snail posting when I joined. XD

Πιghtωιηg, StarClan member

Sorry, I don’t remember you.
