Post by Rosetta on Nov 8, 2012 20:06:50 GMT -5

Hi there, kids! I meant to do this on the first of November, but I got lazy and forgot, so I'm doing it now!!

November is a big month! It's NaNoWriMo, it's the month of the election, the month of Thanksgiving and for some of us, the month of weird weather. It's No Shave November and so on and so forth, but I want to declare a new holiday.

Drum roll, please!

EVERYONE APPRECIATION MONTH

[/font]

Some of you may be asking yourselves:

-What is that?

-And why, why, Rosetta, why are you doing this so suddenly?

Well, here are my answers:

Everyone Appreciation Month is where we all just appreciate each other for what we do and who we are and all that fun, lovely-dovey stuff that we'd otherwise not do or even roll our eyes at!

Why am I doing this so suddenly? To be honest, I'm not quite sure, but for all those participating in NaNoWriMo a little encouragement is nice and for all those growing out that beard for No Shave November, a little encouragement is also nice. And for those living and breathing and writing, a little encouragement is always nice!

So, how about it? Can we all just appreciate each other this month? How, you may ask?

Well, you could post here, talking about a time where someone on the site did something or said something that you appreciate or you could just appreciate people in the c-box or in threads as the time comes. It's your choice!

~~Just don't let this idea epically fail, okay? I believe in your people!~~

I'll start!

Well, I appreciate our wonderful admins for running this site so fantastically and never letting anything go dull. I appreciate Kay and Cam for running an excellent Games currently and I appreciate all pasts GMs for their success. I appreciate all of the staff for their hard work. I appreciate Kale for being such a good sport when some of us didn't share the same opinions as him. I appreciate all new members for take a chance on us even though we probably scare the hell of them in the c-box. I appreciate everyone on this site for being so kind and encouraging to each other when someone needs it!

Please remember, if you're not mentioned exclusively, don't be a bad sport. Appreciate someone else and maybe they'll return the favor!

Have a nice November!

I appreciate lulu and aya for keeping this site running forever. I appreciate kay for putting up with kale and his obnoxious puppy ways. I appreciate Rosetta for putting up with my differences and not chewing me out for them. I appreciate the rest of the site because well were all family here. We all have something we all like. That is The hunger games. Now I know we can appreciate that.

First off, I appreciate Rosetta for starting this thread, and giving me a chance as in threading with me and asking me to join her alliance. I thank Aya and Lulu for putting this site together, they have created my second home and way for me to improve my writing at my own leisure. I appreciate Stare for being such a good tutor even when we're not in sessions and being an overall good friend. I appreciate Onyx who makes me feel important. I appreciate Pika for giving me advice all those times. I want to thank Kay and Cam for GMing these Games, and making them entertaining. I want to thank everyone I've ever threaded with, because they helped - and are continuing to help - me become a better writer. I want to thank Nofo, and I don't even know why, but I guess I respect her. Lastly, I appreciate the whole site for being friendly and welcoming, knowing I can always tell them anything.

To start, I appreciate Lulu and Aya for creating this site, because it's by far the best RPG I've ever been involved in. I also appreciate Rosetta for being my first rp tutor, helping me improve my writing 102%, and also just because I think she's awesome. I'd like to thank Kay because she always seems to have something encouraging to say. She also accepted my very first character (with a pretty 'accepted' word thingy, too). I appreciate Kale because he always says "Raseri <3" when I get in the cbox and that makes me feel important. I appreciate everyone who participated in the 61st games because they didn't hate on me even though back then my writing was crap and my coding was an obnoxiously red color. I would like to thank Naya for inviting me into her alliance with Fallstreak (which, in my opinion, is the coolest character name ever), even though I was total noob and it didn't end up happening. I appreciate South even though I don't know her too well, because she's so freaking musical and good at graphics. I appreciate Danny, because... well, I don't know why, I just do. I appreciate Kiara because she puts up with my super busy life and because she's lovely and always there for me to talk to. I also appreciate Arx because she wrote the first post I'd ever cried about. I appreciate Dars, Rook, Zoe and Greenbeads because I've always loved their writing. I'd like to thank everyone I've ever threaded with because you've all helped me improve my writing and develop my characters. My English scores are the best I've ever gotten because of you. And finally, I'd love to thank everyone on the site for welcoming me when I joined and making me feel so loved. I made friends from the start who encouraged me to keep trying to improve my writing. I love errebody! :D Thanks, Rosetta, it feels nice to say all that.

My, my. Where to begin. Or where to end for that matter? There is a rather large quantity of members that I would want to thank for many things, so I will attempt to mince words where I can and try to keep this post into some semblance of cohesiveness. First, I'd like to appreciate SapphiraLily for being so helpful and fun and awesome; especially appreciated for being the only person to welcome a certain noob to the site and show him around when he first joined. (Hint: his username rhymes with Parade.). I'd be remiss if I did not appreciate Lulu & Aya for building what has become a creative outlet and thriving community for so many other than myself. I'd like to appreciate the multi-talentedSouth for coming up with a family of characters that is as wonderfully macabre as the Dempseys, and for letting me be a part of it. I'd like to appreciate Cam for always being there for me in his own sometimes questionable way. Though highly inappropriate and occasionally thoroughly disgusting, that doesn't change the fact that he is a fierce and loyal friend and a boon to have to this site, whether people have gotten lost in his arener or not =)

I appreciate Arx for being such a great sport and for being one of my favorite writers on this site. I appreciate Ally for referring to me as Ron Weasley, which is something that warms my heart everytime I think about it. I appreciate Semper for calling me Eagle, Thundy for supporting me this past games, as well as simply being one of the funnier people I know, Kale for always saying hello,Elegant for being so durn Elegant, Zoe for never ceasing to make me laugh and Starefor being the nicest person in online history. I appreciate Kay for simply as motherly as she is to so many people on the site, cleaning up our textual messes, putting c-box arguments to rest and for the constant care and attention she gives all of the characters, as well as the writers behind them.I appreciate Rosetta for being as wonderfully zany as she is, from the time of the Leskor alliance when we weren't sure what to make of each other to the White Walkers to now. Rosetta, you are a fantastic writer and I'm proud to have been your ally more than once, and your friend for a good deal more than that.

And of course, last but not least, I appreciate the one and only Greenbeads for so many things. First off, I recall the time when I was a complete noob and got reaped for the 58th games and Geebs deigned to thread and even ally with me. Then of course there is the mountain of conversations about life, the universe and everything. Of course, there is also the fact that our writing and our temperaments go together like peanut butter and chocolate leading to more than a few people crowing about "Garade" and how we have become a legit site ship. I appreciate Geebs for always having had a listening ear and an open inbox, and in times of extreme character distress, even a metaphorical shoulder to cry on. No one as witty and amazingly talented as Greenbeads should ever want for friends or anything else. My hat is off to you.

There are dozens more people of whose company I enjoy in the c-box or in threads, and If I really went on, I'd be here forever. Suffice to say that being a part of this community has really given me a lot of things to think about and a lot of friends and acquaintances with which to say everything from shooting the breeze to holding full-fledged discussions about the world at large, and for that I am truly grateful.

And if I forgot you, just know I ~~hate your fucking guts~~ appreciate you too but my fingers are cramping and I am going to eat lunch now.

I guess I'll start off with Lulu and Aya. If it wasn't for you two I would never have become the writer that I am now. You guys are seriously an inspiration to everyone. Just looking at this site, from the little things to the big things, it shows what real dedication is like. Seriously though, thanks for creating this place, without it I don't think I would have meet so many amazing people. This place is my second home. Saph you are such a hard worker, I know that you work incredibly hard and you have always been an amazing help. In the c-box no matter what you will always help someone out and you are simply brilliant.

Semper, what can I say? You are amazing, awesome and always there. I love talking to you, I love hearing you call me my nickname, because it is the first nickname I have ever had. I love writing with you and just talking to you. I love the skype calls, especially when you showed me all you art work. Most of all I'm love how you are just always there, no matter what is wrong I know I can talk to you. Kay you are awesome, like seriously I have never meet someone so hardworking, even with a busy life going around them. Your writing is simply amazing and you are always there to help out or give a kind word away. Cameron, omg okay so. You really are creepy. And no I haven't yet found you weird, you are funny and always good to talk to. You make me laugh and smile, so thank you for that.

South and Elegant omg do I love your writing, whenever I read your stuff I just want to try and write harder and better, because you guys are wow and like if I could write as good as you guys one day it would be a dream come true. Zoe and Stare you guys have always been really nice and helpful to me. You are both really really really wonderful writers and I love reading whatever you post. Wonder omg we must thread. Yeah so we always say that, but we have never gotten around to doing such. Even so you are awesome and amazing and I love talking to you. Also you boy advice was "helpful". No, but seriously, we are going to thread. Keep being amazing, you make me smile every time we talk <3

Cici girl, the first person i ever threaded with, I can never thank you enough for putting up with me, you answered everyone of my questions and you were always there to talk to me. Plus you are the only person I have ever let call me Cassie. You are such a talented girl and I love every word of your writing and Kormeya <3333 Onyx, Charade, Rook, Greenbeads, Sin and Arx all of you are amazing to talk to and so helpful and amazing and awesome. You guys make this site awesome to come onto and you have always made me feel welcomed. Python omg girl. I have known you for only a few months and yet I love you and your sassy attitude. You are such a no shit girl that I love talking to you all the time. Your writing is amazing. Also Pandigo is perfect and you are perfect and I hope we can be friends for a very long time. Also, one day come to Australia <3

Cait, omg girl where do I start. You writing is perfect, you are always willing to talk to me. We have spent hours talking sometimes and I have always enjoyed it. Your writing is amazing and you are always willing to help and chat and give me tips. I love you and I hope that one day I'll be able to meet you and give you a hug and tell you face to face how much I appreciate you. Finally there is Clover girl there isn't much that I can't say about you. Your writing is flawless, there is never a bad thing about it. We have talked whole entire days at a time. We talk every single day and days where we don't talk I hate it. I love our long talks, and I can never thank you enough for always being there for me. I turn to you first for help more than i turn to anyone I know. And over the year I have known you I think I can call you one of my best friends. i'm closer to you than anyone I know in real life and hun I can't wait to meet you in January <3

To everyone I have written with or spoken to, you are all so important to me, but right now my brain has died, please don't feel bad if I haven't put your name on here. If you do just PM me and I'll edit you in <3
