hopefully you guys won't think this is strange, but I'm an old member from over four years ago. I've been on a kick lately of reconnecting with some old friends I made on the internet and this community was always kind to me, despite the awkward, angry, and unfortunately dysfunctional personality I was at the time. I see a couple of my old brothers and sisters still visit here and it's refreshing to see the place hasn't changed much either.

Ask me anything in this thread - let's catch up, friends!

Also, if you're going to reminisce over some of my old posts, I hope you can forgive me for some of the painful things you may see or remember. I'm not proud of the life 15 year old me lived, but it's who I am, so I won't cover it up hahaha

Oh heeeey, I remember you~ It's good to see you again, although I don't think the two of us interacted with each other much back then.

I wasn't exactly the most pleasant to be around in my teenage years either, so it's all good.

Now that I remember it, I also wasn't a very pleasant person when I started out here. I thought I was, though.

I don't think we've met, but it's nice to meet you!

I laughed at a respectably audible level upon remembering the kiwi button. Thank you for the welcome, Speedy, I'm glad to see you around! How have things been on your end?

And Milk! AAAAaaaAAAA!!! I'm not going to lie, there was probably some subconscious check list of conditions that I wanted to see fulfilled before I came back and at the top of it was making sure you were still here. It might as well have been forever, honestly!

In terms of "what's been up" idk a lot of shit can happen in 5 years. I graduated high school despite some friction with how things were going, worked a job as a cashier for about two years or so, took a year off from school to get my life sorted, ended up making a long list of mistakes with some girls over the span of a year... Oh, and I ended up getting even more invested in competitive pokemon. I don't know how much I used to talk about it on Skype, but after I left, the next community I eventually transitioned into was the Smogon forums. I ended up contributing so much and being so involved in the community I became the Tier Leader for NU. That ended up lasting about a month because, even by the time I accepted the position, it became something like a job and was affecting my stress levels outside of my computer time.

Kiwi today is currently attending college in his second year. My end goal is to get my PhD in Psychology and become a professor at a university while also running my own research lab. I'm super into cycling, I've been dating a wonderful girl named Alex for the past 5 months, I have a 1 year old tabby cat named Bean, and I'm a god at the Binding of Isaac. I still watch anime on occasion as well - you can check out my MAL here: https://myanimelist.net/animelist/Disjunction

Also, do you guys still use Skype or have we moved to Discord like a lot of other communities? My old skype was compromised so I uninstalled it and moved on lol

Long time no see, Kiwi.

Yeah, things have been rather dead here and on Skype for quite a while now. Discord has proven to be noticeably less of a frustration than Skype, so most of us moved onto that.

Just the same, I think seeing this place liven up a bit would be appreciated.
