Soon enough, it will have been two years since this website was created (March 28, 2009). Looking back on the old website, it's been even longer (it was created Feb 1, 2007. Four. Years.)
After some time, we stopped visiting this website, but still some of us still visit this website, for whatever reason. I have this link in my bookmark bar and I haven't removed it, for whatever reason. Occasionally I accidentally click it and end up here
So, to those who still check in here, how are you? What's changed? Are you still into Warriors or have your interests moved onto something else? How do you feel when you look back at your old stuff?
Me?
I'm 16 now (which... makes me 12 when I made the first website? Huh). I'm in my Junior year of high school which is almost over which means Senior year is coming up; not looking forward to that. I'm not really into Warriors anymore, although I will admit that I occasionally look up spoilers to see who died.
Looking back on this stuff from years ago... I kind of cringe, ha ha... I made stupid characters (Spork? Sauerkraut? No wonder Shadowstar is the only I brought over to this website, as far as I know...), acted like an idiot (maybe I still do, but its not nearly as bad as it was then auuugh), and everything I did looks lazy (Using one word to describe personalities! Using varieties of that first word to describe personalities! One sentence RP posts!), although I probably thought it was great at the time.
Not sure what I'm going to do if we somehow manage to revive the website. Like I said, I'm not really interested in Warriors anymore. I'd still be interested in roleplaying with you guys, maybe I can try to roleplay Warriors, or we could roleplay something different, who knows.

Yup It's been about two years. Three years, almost, since I started roleplaying. I'm now a 17 year old junior in Highschool. So trust me as well when I look back and cringe harshly at my one liners. When I look at them now I can see six or seven ways to add detail to them (I blame my creative writing class). It pains me at times to look back but I will still look back mostly out of boredom or curiosityI have a bad memory at times) I still laugh at Tornleaf's 1337 Warrior story on the original site. To amusing to tell the truth. I will admit I did some stupid things on the other site and on here but i'd like to think I've matured (a tiny bit). dang... I feel old all the sudden.
But I digress (never thought i'd use words like that in my life time) I have found my old boots that I use to kick butt in before i mellowed out some and pulled them on(yes they still fit cause i have small hands and feet). I then sat down at my desk and logged in for what felt like ages adn opened a new post and started typing. When I finished it was near midnight (give out take a little bit) and so i proceeded to post it knowing then that no one would probably see it until the next day. I felt a bit like my old self and to be truthful I like my old craziness more then I do my passive crazines.
But i once more digress. I felt somehow it was time to start even if it was only with a few people. My gut said so so I did. My parents run on eq2 and while it can be annouying to here my nickname from across the house and think their talking about me and their not i still respect them because my parents have built up over 5 different guilds by becoming their base and being flexable to a point. They are practically legends amongst the eq2 memebers around them. (The game builders even put a statue of one of my pops characters inside the game it's actually kinda cool). I like you shadoweh don't really look into the warriors scene My taste in books ranges more along the lines of dragons adn lady-knights.

Yep, yep, adding detail. Now-a-days, I can't really even bring myself to do one-liner posts. Maybe its some weird perfectionist thing where I can't post something until it is perfect (which it will never be so I post stuff whenever they're as good as they're going to get without me spending years on it). I should re-read Torneh's 1337 Warriors sometime. I swear, I just stop by my old websites to vandalize my account there (see how I Friday'd up this account... oh god I will never be able to get that song out of my head, will I?)
And that does sound kind of neat, the thing about your parents being EQ2 legends.
Reading wise, I.... don't really read much anymore. Like outside of whatever I have to read for English (which are generally good books when they aren't Pride and Prejudice or Great Expecations), I can't really bring myself to read anything anymore. I don't get it, I don't know what happened. I mean, yeah, I'll read text in any other form other than books, but books... I don't know.
Although, dragons are great. I remember looking at what I put down for interests on a website I was on when I was like 12. It was: dragons, ninjas, cats. And I'm still into all those those things, although not the Naruto variety of ninjas and not the Warriors variety of cats. I guess somethings don't change.

It has been quite some time, hasn't it? I'm 16, soon to be 17, a Junior in high school, dreading my senior year. I've matured a lot, but I haven't changed too much overall, or online at least. I still love warriors, Pokemon, and all that stuff, though I admit that warriors has sort of lost it's shine. I cringe at my one liners over at the old site, but I don't have any bad memories of it. I look back to those days with pleasure. Sure, we were nub writers, but we had fun, did we not? (I'd rather not write like that ever again. I can't even believe I was like that once.)
I'd never completely forget this roleplay. It's lodged somewhere in my memory as my first roleplay site. I'd love to bring this site back, or at least roleplay something with all of you again. Most of my online life has been spent at Pokemon sites, and most of my offline time is spent doing school work, video games, or band. Did I mention I've become an even bigger band geek than before? I work for a few sites as a spriter and I rather enjoy my job.
I still love to read, though school drains quite a bit of energy, and my online jobs take up most of my free time. I still roleplay, only a little these days as my characters never move, but some things just don't die. To be honest, I really miss you all. I recently got into contact with Torneh who started hanging around Laokia recently, so I can definitely drag him over here so we can torture- I mean talk with him. ^_^
You all were awesome. Perhaps we should start some sort of roleplay together? Doesn't have to be warriors, just something we can all enjoy. At the very least it would be nice to at least stay in contact, no?

You know, I never realized that the three of were around the same age (although, I guess I am still the youngest here). I actually don't think I ever had an idea what age any of you guys were. I just assumed everyone was like years older than me or something. Weird observation.
But yeah! Those were fun times, even though we've all gotten better at writing since then. Cringe worthy handwriting or not, those times were still fun and I don't think anything can make them suddenly unfun.
I, for am, would be interested in starting some sort of roleplay with you guys. No ideas as what to it could be about, but surely if we put our heads together we could come up with something. I do want to be able to keep in contact with you guys~ I swear, ever since I made this post I've been checking this website obsessively to see if anyone else has popped up... Which explains why I'm every other post here, ahaha.

I do have that fantasy RP I've been trying to get started. The RP is open now, though it's still under heavy construction. =P
I still need to get Torneh here. ^_^ Torneh is the oldest, if I remember correctly. Neko never really speaks her age online. xD Probably why you didn't know.

*is late to the party*
Geez... It really doesn't feel like that long but I guess it has been.
I'm in college now, as embarrassing as it is to admit that. Sometimes I wonder if Chris Hansen has my named stashed away somewhere. I haven't read any of the Warriors books since the first Power of Three one, unfortunately. I'm a lot like Shadoweh I guess in that I've stopped reading books much. I do try occasionally, but I can never seem to finish. I never quite stopped RPing or writing, though, but it was never at quite the interest or intensity as it was on W:EC.
In my more personal life, I moved after I graduated high school, so for those of you who knew, I don't live in California anymore. I also have a VERY part time job working as a [insert embarrassing job here].
It is definitely nice to here from all of you again... I don't mean to sound like a loner or anything, but I have been having trouble making new friends in college, so it was great to see everyone still caring and keeping in contact and everything. I would definitely love to try to RP with everyone again. You all were always so great and welcoming.

That gif is beautiful. I wish I had something equally as beautiful to respond to it with, but I don't so have a Quagsire. And its not embarrassing. I know tons of people who are in college, and it weird knowing that a handful of my friends will be in college next year. I do not like thinking about college, although I really should considering next year is kind of.... yeah. Whoops. But hey! We're all here now! And it looks like we're all interested in doing some sort of RP something, so how do we want to do this? Maybe we can put together a plan and get something done and then something happens?? I'm sounding less and less intelligent as I keep typing. It happens.

I'd be fine with RPing anything, really.
And yeah, it is stressful to think about... But its something that's necessary. Just make sure you get all your applications and stuff done with early next school year... I ended up putting it off and ended up missing a lot of deadlines accidentally. Also, don't feel bad if you have to go in without a major picked yet. You can always use the first couple years to get rid of your general requirements while you figure out what you want to do. It's better than rushing into something you don't like, and regretting it later.

I would love to RP with you guys again cause if I'm totally honest it was the original W:EC that got me into writing and not reading. Hence why one of my ambitions is to publish one book like my great-grandmother did before she died. It is also an ambition to be a vet but i digress( Deal with it wolfeh). I think the reason we all roleplayed so well together is because we were the same age whether we knew it or not. That's why we could understand each other very clearly and not take any jokes to harshfully. I think we should find something that the majority of us has a good idea how to rp and start there. We could even use this site cause honestly all we would have to do is rename the catagories. If we could find others who would be willing to play with us then it would be even better.
