i was well known in otd in the 2013/14 era - my best friend being sugar and spice and we were in a relationship for a while wow i was also in a relationship with roswell too i remember being part of the pants family lmao but no one can forget 'je suis le pain' basically sugar and spice speaks french fluently and a user had some in their signature in fancy font 'je suis le pain - i am pain' which wasn't actually what it meant. so sug screenshotted it and made a post on tumblr saying 'dude i hope you know this literally means "i am the bread"' and it ended up getting over 80,000 notes and became tumblr famous. this was 2014 also the otd bread war was very notable. basically a genuine flame war erupted over which type of bread was better. this was 2013/14 you can't forget to add the cat family either. this was late 2012 - basically the cat family was a bunch of users in otd that had the word 'cat' at the end of their name and you could only join if you had that word at the end of your name. notable users in this group were 'black cat' and 'white cat', i believe who were the creators of it. hence how sea cat was born. i used to be 'breezelight' but really wanted to join the cat family so made an account called sea cat so i could join also please add the awesomez onto here. the awesomez were a 'superior' group of active members in 2010/11/12 who roamed oots and were best friends who many people admired. notable members include 3 kits, mooncrystal, tearpool, lightflame, starblaze, ceiling cat and basement cat plus many more. it was very hard to join them. i joined them in 2010 as breezelight and we are all still best friends now, with a skype group and we are planning a meetup. so yeah we're still very active but obviously not known as the awesomez anymore. we've all grown up now. also the oots vs otd war, which happened during 2011/12 years. both forums hated each other a lot, but one day in 2012 we all met up 'civilly' in a roleplay in which we literally had a war against each other to see who would win at the end. most of otd and oots turned up, as well as warriors misc becoming allies with otd and the cats becoming allies with oots. it was a very big turnout and we all kinda got along after that

sea cat , what else can you tell us about Suger&Spice if you don't mind me asking. We have a Person Highlights about them, but it currently doesn't have anything written about them. sugar and spice came into the forums in 2013, and very quickly became well known for being an incredibly nice person who tried their best to help everyone. they always tried to create peace and harmony but were never afraid to stand up for themselves and their friends if need be and therefore would occasionally get into arguments with members if they said something hurtful or wrong which just really shows how great they were. they were very well known for being cute and adorable, which people regularly described them as and they were always very inclusive of everyone no matter who they were, which is why they became very well liked. in 2014, they started the very well known 'i am the bread' joke, which became tumblr famous and had over 80,000 notes. they were very active around the 2013/14 era before getting banned due to a flame war, however returned with the accounts orchis, and after that nobody owens in 2014 when they went into a relationship with seacat. close friends of the member were sea cat, mushroom and many more members like nagito komaeda and bumblr bee.

Yes, please. What were the oots weddings? Also, thanks for your help.

Post by sea cat on Aug 22, 2016 15:26:39 GMT -5
the oots weddings were set up in around 2010 i believe and overall there were around 8 of them. for each oots wedding, 2 different members of the awesomez were asked to host them (which basically consisted of making the thread, structuring what happened, and giving out the vows). the awesomez created the oots weddings as a way to bring everyone together. basically around of a couple of weeks before the first oots wedding, a thread was made so people could claim the cats they wanted to marry, because people couldn't marry the same cat. as you can imagine, most of the main characters got taken very quickly due to the popularity of the idea.
the oots weddings were basically an rp thread for each wedding made in the fan clan section of the forums, where everyone would rp with each other and their chosen cats. the hosts of the oots weddings would give out wedding vows which each rper would have to repeat with their name and their chosen cats name in the vows where applicable. after this it was mainly a party and 'taking your cat into the bushes' was a very popular thing.
then when the next oots wedding arised, the claiming thread would be brought back up so more people could choose their cats and it got to the point where so many characters were chosen (even the very minor ones were taken) that people started to marry characters outside of warriors which showed how popular they really were.

This is so bizarre considering how violent the books can get How's this for bizarre? The Cat Killing Scare In June 2015 mods began deleting topics were cats were killed. A forumer by the screen name of mintedstar/fur was the first to ever report of a topic being deleted in FAQs. She searched the words Cat Killing, when coupled together to see if anyone had ever asked a similar question, but there was nothing. So she asked why her new graphic novel, which had not depicted any gore or blood, had been deleted for this unheard of rule. No one knew. As the days went on more and more topics were deleted simply because a cat had died. Moderators were split down the middle on this new rule. Some didn’t enforce it and said it didn’t exist. Others said that cats could no longer die in stories, fan clans, or graphic novels unless it was from natural causes. The forumers, as expected, didn’t like this new rule. They posted petitions and protests. The moderators had to go all the way to the head mod just to see if it was a new rule or not. The verdict? It was ruled that cats could die as long as it wasn’t gory (i.e. the same as it had been before). As far as I know, no one was directly banned for Cat Killing. However, some were probably banned or suspended for causing a few arguments over this temporary ghost rule. This time in forum history is now called the Cat Killing Scare.
