On August 31, 2009 Somehow I found the forums. I think I was just browsing the warriors official site and there was a like to the message boards. I didn't know much about computers or how social intereaction online worked at all back then so I was hesitant about signing up and meeting people.
But I was a lonely kid. I was I think just starting High school. A young Freshmen who was like a year younger than the rest of my classmates bc my bday is at that awkward time of the year where I'd either be the oldest person or the youngest person in my grade. 9th grade was a strange year for me. My best friend since 4th grade got really mad at me and 'broke up' our friendship bc of a misunderstanding, but I realized that was probably for the better since she was very manipulative and not a great friend at all. All my other friends kinda took sides in the fight and split up to find new places and people to hang out with so I was kinda left on my own with like 2 people who I sat with and talked to every day.
I had been reading the books since like 7th grade when I was at the bookstore with my mom and I was complaining about the fact that no books looked good to read and she literally picked up the first two warriors books and handed them to me and told me to try them. And the Obsession began, sadly I haven't met another person that liked warriors as much as I do in my daily life.
Anyways, I was awkward and unsure of how to act on the forums when i first began, I think I only stayed in the Fan fiction section and wrote a Tawnypelt fan fic for the first like 6 months, and I spent some time in the Art subforum doing requests and stuff. Surprisingly my fic was actually quite popular. It was the first one I had ever written and I have like no memory of what it was about but I updated is frequently and I even made some friends with the people that read it. Dappleholly was one of them and is the reason I probably stuck with writing for a while, even if I'm not very good at it. So thank you for giving me that self confidence in my writing.
After a few months someone posted on my thread asking if I wanted to join their clan for an rp. I had no idea what Roleplaying was so I joined as a deputy and knew nothing of what I was doing and maybe posted once before not going back, so to whoever that was I apologize for my ignorance. Right before the end of my first year of high school I met someone by the SN of Icecream_Luver. She invited me to join her clan Rainbowclan and taught me all about rping and I fell in love with it and with the clan. It was such an active clan that if you didn't constantly refresh the page like 5 times a second you would miss all the plot stuff. But it was soooooo much fun and I was so happy that even when I was on a like 3 week road trip with my family I was constantly asking my mom if I could borrow her laptop so I could check in and catch up with the rp.
My family started to call it "Kitty Cat Chat" and teased me all the time for being on the forums, when I wasn't at school or playing soccer I was at home on the forums. I don't know how long this went on for but at some point I made another account. Rainbowclan had died down at this point and I might have taken a bit of a break from the forums. I don't have the best memory...
Spirits of the River was created on October 7, 2010. Right as I was entering 10th grade. I joined a clan called Moonclan and had a ton of fun. Here it is If any of you wanna take a glance. Ice posted something on it a few days ago and I wish I could comment but I have no memory of my old login for Spirits and I got banned with my main Deamonsoul.... so Ice if you see this, Thank you. I'm still friends with Misteh on tumblr so I'll probably send her a message later. But Lily and Hawk and Moon if you are still around, if you guys see this I miss you and Thanks for all the good times. That was a fun clan. There was another one at some time called Waterfallclan. I'm not really sure which account I was on that one with but I remember I had a lot of fun with it.
I was active with Spirits of the river till 12/1/13. I think that was when i stopped going on the forums till back in April of this year. After one of my Mini breaks I came back and found that Icey had left the forums for good literally like week before I came on. So I never got to say goodbye to her which I'm still sad about and if she happened to come back for the end of times then Hello I missed you.
I remember coming back to the forums and finding that instead of using my old username I now had to log in with my email.... well I forgot which emails I had used for all of my accounts but luckily I had used my old one for my original which let me log in to Deamonsoul.
Back in 2014 I had tried to create this clan, Fallenclan on a completely different account I had made just to make the clan. It got 8 pages before dying. In 2015 I tried to recreate it with my original account. And it got... 3 pages before dying. And then back in April I decided to try again and up until the announcement of the closing of the forums it got a whoping 142 pages. And as of right now has 51 pages on these forums. So I guess I figured it out or something. It took 2 years of trying to get here so thank you guys so much, I've had so much fun and made so many new friends since April.
It's weird to have this sense of nostalgia of the old stuff while still moving on and using the new stuff. I have like 7 years of memories on the WCF. Seven. Years. I wish I could save all of it but 142 pages took up like 1035 google docs pages and Rainbowclan doens't even exist anymore so I guess I can't but I'll keep what I can for as long as possible because the WCF mean so much to me and you have no idea how sad I am that the website it closing. But at the same time, it means I can start over and get to know a whole bunch of people, meet all of you that have been on the forums for as long as me or not at all.
Heh. Good job on starting over yeah? I kept the same SN and the same avatar I've had for like 7 years. Old Habits die hard eh? Anyways if you read all this rambling props to you. If you knew me back then please tell me, I have a terrible memory especially when it comes to names and stuff so if you tell me who you are and how we knew each other I will freak out an all the memories will come back.
Love you all. Enjoy the new forums. I'm gonna stick around for a long while yet, Just because I'm about to start my 4th year of college doesn't mean i'm leaving you. so no this isn't goodbye. Just goodbye to the WCF.
Love,
Deamon
