YES! Thank you @sleepyhead. You and TGW were two of the main reasons I stayed on the forums when my overall interest in it started to wane (back during Tellygate).
And ā¦
@Guvnor for being such an awesome source of information on everything here @zephyr1 for being the original superposter and mentor to Guvnor @JonahTheBard for being Bard of the Forum @Rook for being the catās meow @Duaneski for the Ridiculous Complaints thread, which kept me up far too late on far too many workdays @akionna, @sft1965, @Photon for keeping the When Suddenly ā¦ thread going @SamMe who I believe got my last thank you here a couple days ago
We do have a pretty good thing going, donāt we? Kudos to @FrenziedEye (hope youāre still reading occasionally) and @Elpis for organizing the Rebellion, and to the many great voices that continue to contribute there. (I would tag them all, but Iād forget someone, and then Iād feel really bad.) And personally thanks to @akionna for sharing the stories of her kidās magical summoning powers! Part of the fun in saving up all the summon currency for those oh-so-rare FTP summoning binges is being able to share them with my girls. Kids are great!
Thanks to all the great mods, past and present, who have done a wonderful job keeping the forum mostly non-toxic through the very dicey issues of GTV defenses, Velluriagate, the beta scandal, and the recent overwhelming influx of new content. Gonna single out @JonahTheBard , @zephyr1 , @Guvnor , and @PlayForFun as the ones Iāve had the most interaction with, but thatās obviously not an exhaustive list.
Special kudos to all who contribute to the Beta Beat content, which is invaluable for long-term summon planning.
Non-game-related thanks to all the non-US posters who give some international perspective on pretty much anything. Itās fascinating to learn about all the places Iām not likely to ever travel in person. Big ups to those who donāt speak English natively; I know being a polyglot is much more common outside the US than inside, but yāall still amaze me.
And no thanks thread of mine would be complete without mentioning the now-retired @Gryphonknight , without whose sage advice early in the game I know I would have burned out and quit in frustration long ago. Knowing how to take the time to patiently build your roster correctly makes all the difference, especially for FTP.
Also, posthumous thanks to the homie @TGW, taken too soon, for making the forum a great place to debate. Still not right that heās gone.
I couldnāt even begin to list all the thanks that would be needed over the past three yearsā¦ (I guess thatās only about two on the forum though)
@NotVixx has been literally a life saver. @Saphirra and @sleepyhead are both amazing at checking in with me.
Love the random PMās from @Sarah2 @AncientPirate1 for letting us in to his personal world, making us realize we are more than what we see on the screen. @JonahTheBard and @Dudeious.Maximus for my super fun names and badges.
I have to throw in @KLinMayhem for the birthday song!!
To the hundreds of players that have joined and left the crew family (mostly on good terms )
Thanks to all the contributors for making things funā¦ itās because of the people that so many of us have stayed as long as we have.
@Math4lyfe@akionna@nevarmaor@Pike you are all wonderful, thanks for the shout outs but really it is MY pleasure to hang out with you (and others - @sft1965 gets a special ally mate shout out as does @amrath ) on the fun community content threads - thanks for spreading the joy and good vibes! (I think Iām due for a when suddenly reread and song lyrics re-listen some time soon too) . Glad youāre all still around
@Dudeious.Maximus ā¦ mighty keeper of dragons bestowed a dragon to me in one of the first gestures of kindness i received in the forum. So again I humbly thank u for showing this witchy addicted mistress love.
I am both happy and honored to still be tagged by @Math4lyfe.
I know that if we met we would be good friends.
She was most certainly one of the rocks in my foundation through my cancer battle.
Crew Saders has been lucky to have such a rock and a brilliant mastermind steering this long standing legendary alliance.
I have been fortunate to find a group of Scally wagās in my alliance,
ā The Pirate Horde ā that have endured me for such a long time.
So many folks here have shown me so much love, compassion, friendship and there is integrity within these souls.
@zephyr1 took me in and treated me better better than some people treat their family.
āS always.
@TGW
I mourned the loss of you and wanted you to know I dedicated my motorcycle ride to You and raised my glass to You often brother.
I guess You will always be here in our hearts.
I couldnāt possibly tag all who Iāve had camaraderie with here as it would consume my night, but they will know that itās hapiness or the highway.
His instructionals are awesome and thought provoking. I love that @JekylandHyde takes the time to explain his rationale. His tutorials are just really educational, not the regular ājust watch as I stack multiple heroes that many of you only dream of and ā¦BLAM magic happensā. Iām left thinking, āI donāt know any of those heroes specialsā¦ Maybe you could tell us?ā He is a plain natural imo.
I think there are places in Canada where that is totally legal for either mainstream gender (Toronto maybe?). Doesnāt always make it a good idea for either, some men think sporting a 36 month pregnancy is a good look.
Like many others on here there is no way I could thank everyone by tagging them. But I would like to say Thank you all. When I first joined the forum I was a 16 year old and yāall accepted me into the forum fam. Itās a great place in here, and slowly I am coming back to posting on here. I definitely want to Thank @TGW for all he did on here. He was a great friend. I really enjoy reading @AncientPirate1 ās post, thank you my friend. @sleepyhead has been a upbeat and caring friend to me, and I want to Thank you for that. I want to say (text really) thank you to @Sorsha for believing in me. Thank you @nevarmaor and @voidstrike (I canā t for the life of me remember your forum name) [I finally remembered] for always reminding me of my age and being fun loving people.
And Thank you @Math4lyfe for being a kind and generous person
@Peterenp Thank you for always low key helping me and showing me the forumā¦ you believed me when no one would [SOLVED - Staff Response Post #27] Wrong war matching / Players Under Level 12 Participating in Wars - #16 by Peterenp and made this for me when I didntā have a accountā¦ I donāt forget things people do for me. Itās a flaw sometimes. I know I can never catch a fox and I totally get the space you keep so Iām sorry to get mushy on you but ā¦ oh wellā¦ thank you also for helping me with the challenge eventsā¦ and wow just everything and even tho you are a of few words sometimes, and I get that ā¦ maybe good thing to show you that you are cared for and appreciatedā¦ * unmushy hug* ā¦ LOL ugh
@SamMe you always keep things realā¦ your realā¦ it helpsā¦ I love the game for an escape ā¦ but the love you have for ppl is real and really feltā¦ I always know your there if Iām frustratedā¦ and misunderstood by ( ALOT ) of playersā¦ thank youā¦

@Rook ā¦ just ā¦ yeahā¦ thank you ā¦ checking on me and my crashing issuesā¦ just nice to know still on someones mindā¦
right back at you buddy, thanks for being so awesome, cool, fun and friendly @Saphirra ! I remember you organizing the TGW coffee cup thread, and making so many cards for posters!
Itās great to see this thread taking off especially with Society the way it is today. thank you all for getting yourselves out of character and showing your hearts
