@Ammokkx Awwwwww thanks! I'm glad you think so- a lot of my GM knowledge is theoretical, so I'm happy to see it's paying off. But, y'know, I noticed you missed somebody in all your gushing: yourself! (I know you wouldn't really do that on this kind of thing but my transition doesn't work otherwise soooooooo)

You've been an absolute pleasure to work with in the RP- and hell, without you, it wouldn't even exist anymore. And I know everyone likes to joke about how you're this real negative asshole (especially yourself), but I actually think your an incredible source of positivity on the Discord, even if you sometimes get into arguements about this thing or that. Plus, I have a lot of respect for you as a writer- I think you say a lot of smart things about people's writing, and whenever you've thrown criticism my way I've always thought "yeah, that's fair and it makes sense why you'd say that."

So, you know, thanks for joining my RP and saying nice things about me on the internet, and uuuuuuuuuuh I hope this wasn't too cheesy for ya, I like to think I showed some constraint.

@Ammokkx I’ll bite ya fockin’ kneecaps off mate.

7600 posts and roughly 1200 days later, I'd like to give a shout out to all of RPG for helping shape me into the person and writer that I am today. I make no promises to keep this short, but here are some honorable mentions:

As always, @SouffleGirl123. My ride or die, best friend, spirit twin, confidant and so much more. I honestly don't know where I would be without you. I appreciate those times that you stayed up to the earliest/latest hours of the mornings with me. I hate that Uni is taking up most of your time, but I know that you're going to be an awesome nurse. <3

@Altered Tundra - One of my first connections on the Guild, and my adopted Uncle, he's a pretty cool bean. His puns are... well, they're Tundy puns, guys. His graphics are amazing, and I swear he has a heart of Gold. I'll go ahead and say it: I am a fan. If you use this to black mail me, I will fly to the west coast and snap your neck. <3

@Chasebloodcrest - I'm mainly mentioning you here just to annoy you. Plus, as my chicken nugget, you should get used to these things. An amazing writer and pretty cool person. I'm glad that I've had the chance to talk to you.

@Dread - Not sure why you like me, but I'm glad that you do. If anyone can find me a brighter ray of sunshine, I'll be shocked.

@Dirty Pretty Lies - I've said it once, I'll say it twice. Hell, I'll shout it from the rooftops. You. Are. A. Goddess. I looked up to you for the longest time, and I'm so glad that I'm actually getting to know you now. A gorgeous person both inside and out, as well as a amazing GM. Plus you join in on my pervy jokes most of the time. You have no idea how much that means to me. Keep shining, darling.

@Lady Amalthea - I've often asked myself how on earth this woman stands me. It's really no big secret that I admire her, or her work. Best guides, RP's, GM-ing skills and characters around. I'll eventually get the guts to join one of your groups one day. xD

@jakeb1993 - My favorite cinnamon roll of all time. Definitely my favorite GM to work with. I'm sorry I turned your Rp into a ship fest.

@POOHEAD189 - My other adopted Uncle here on RPG. I appreciate the work he does as a mod, though I really wish he'd stop judging my sleeping habits. I'd give you a cookie any day.

@Ruby - While Poo is my Uncle, I must say that Ruby is my all time favorite Mod. Easy to talk to, absolute great personality, and she even joins us in a few spam threads from time to time.

@SammyPanda - Cute, cute, cute, cute! Thank you for my Pandas. You're such a fantastic person. <3

Discord mentions go out to: @Blind Bandit, @Blaze Gamma, @Uncle Spanky, @MadamQuack and @Tyler Night.

@Dread - Not sure why you like me, but I'm glad that you do. If anyone can find me a brighter ray of sunshine, I'll be shocked.

Awww! Thank you so much for the shoutout! That was unexpected, but I feel so honored!

And how can anyone not like you?? I mean c'mon!

Okay, got to gush in here about one person in particular...The incredibly dedicated, hardworking, intelligent, funny, compassionate, diligent, kind, and creative @Lady Amalthea.

If you haven't met Lady A, then you are seriously missing out. She runs the best damn RPs on this forum, with *multiple* RPs over the 2 year mark and several that reached the conclusion of the storyline. Her plots are well thought out and never obvious - and they just have everything. I myself have never really gotten into the Walking Dead as a TV show or comic book line - but hell, her Walking Dead RP is one of the most enjoyable RPs I have ever been in and allows an intense examination of human nature...alongside drugged up unicorns and SpaghettiO's wars.

Each RP is better than the one before it but not only are they a hell of a lot of fun, she teaches you to be a better writer and RPer. She puts in time and energy where she doesn't have to, just to see her RPers leave her RPs better equipped to handle the next one. Not a lot of GM's on the site take time to do that - in fact, I haven't seen anyone else who does.

And when the forum started crashing constantly, threatening the loss of IC posts and CS's? She made a damn back up forum. Now, I'm sure you're thinking ~well I can make one in two seconds, bare minimum, and we can host special things there.~ No. Lady A doesn't roll like that. Not only do we have hundreds of IC posts saved there, she designed a custom award system with the CUTEST graphics (like seriously, they are adorable!!!) and got the board a custom skin, as well as base avatars that match the board's theme.

Her dedication knows no limits and if this hasn't convinced you of just what an amazing person she is, just take a look at the numerous resources she's made for RPG - including guides on how to start RPing and how to develop your own RP! But wait, she also will be there for your, listening to your problems in real life and supporting you. She goes above and beyond the job of a GM and deserves more thanks than we could possibly give her.

SO THANK YOU LADY A!!!! <3

Although I don't know her, she sounds really fun!

@Morose Omg... Okay, I read this last night but you actually left me blubbering like a baby. You don't know how much I needed to hear something like this, or maybe you did. You probably did, we tend to have similar thoughts from time to time. Thank you for this, so much. I never mind doing anything for any of the peeps around here but it does feel very taken for granted a lot of the time. Not that it would stop me but seriously. Thank you for this. It is a much needed shot in the arm and warmth to this cold and cynical heart of mine. ~hugs her and then runs away to do something constructive before she starts crying again~

Well @Lady Amalthea I've also noticed the amount of content of raw knowledge you've provided for all of us here. I'm sorry I haven't personally thanked you.

But I do appreciate you and thank you for everything you've helped us with as a community.

:)

@Gareth Aww thankies hun!

@Hey Im Jordan @Fabricant451 @Lovely Complex @Silent Observer @Kitty @Melissa @smarty0114 @Silver Carrot @CaptainMarvel @McHaggis @BrutalBx

4-0-0. 400.

Ain't many other RPs that have gotten as far as we have, and definitely no other RPs as cool as we are. I couldn't ask for a better group of people to write with. From the Yung Steve memes to Kit to the AJ and Scott posts to Parker... all the way to Damian getting fucking JACKED. From top to bottom we the coolest motherfuckers around.

fuck the haters and the naysayers!

Never thought I would see the day but here it is. The forum has just rolled Darker Than Black over to that phenomenal 3 Year mark! Can you believe it? I hardly can and I have been watching for it for a while now. This RP had some major issues in the beginning but thanks to my marvelous peeps it has kept going and turned into one hell of a roller coaster ride. We just recently closed out on Chapter 3 and entered Chapter 4 where everything is changing and changing fast, including the main location of the RP.



I have to throw out some major kuddos to @Dragoknighte, @Sigil, @Morose, & @Nallore. They have been with this Rp since it started and have been paramount to its success. (Like they are with so many of my Rps.) @FantasyChic was a late comer to the game, stepping in during Chapter 3 but she had proven herself to be an amazing asset in this RP. We have a new player hopefully joining us soon and I cannot wait to see what he brings to the mix.

So as always, thank you so fucking much for all the time and dedication you have put into this RP. We might be in Chapter 4 but this is only the beginning of what I hope will turn into many more years to come. Congrats DTB Peeps, it's time to party!

@McHaggis@Kirah@Damo021@Morose@FantasyChic@BlueSky44@Dragoknighte@rivaan

Just want to thank all of you who are in the Wolves of Red Lake RP, it was my baby for such a very long time, made some major changes to the RP over the last few years before this version finally completed. I just want to thank you all that you who have stuck with me, it is my first ever RP I've completed so I want to thank you all for that. Also for sticking with me for it, you all are such awesome writers, and happy to be friends with all of you. And cant wait to continue to RP with the rest of you guys in both current, and future RPs whatever they maybe. :)

@Morose @BlueSky44 And a personal thank you and shoutout for allowing me to GM an RP in the Skyrose universe that you've made and all of the awesome work you've done for it as well. :)

I'd like to thank my girlfriend for being so sweet to me. She gets concerned if I go silent for more than an hour, but I find it cute. Might be coming down with something, and I'm pretty sure she'd run herself ragged trying to take care of me if she was here. Bless her heart.

I'd like to thank my boyfriend for getting me into the phenomenal video game series known as Monster Hunter. I was skeptical about the skill-based Action RPG gameplay, especially since the games can be VERY difficult when they want to be, but after starting with Generations, I've actually reached a point in that game where I can consistently solo Hyper Monsters, even some of the tougher ones, as well as the multiplayer final boss and other very tough multiplayer-scaled monsters. I've fallen in love with Generations so much that I asked for Generations Ultimate for my birthday before I even got a Nintendo Switch, which I'm now waiting on for when Christmas rolls around.

Thank you very much, darling. I love you tons. <3

I just wanted to take some time to appreciate the following folks who have ensured that my latest roleplay, Santa Celia: A Superhuman Story, has gotten off to a strong, solid start. These players have taken to each other in a way I haven't seen in a long time and have taken what little guidance I've given them and run off to create something beautiful. Characters have just organically clicked in the IC and you can see the plot threads hanging there, just waiting to unfold. So thank you to all of you:


I want to give an extra special thanks to my Co-GM, @Hillan who is also my oldest friend on the Guild, our shenanigans having survived even the infamous Guildfall. As well as my other Co-GM and newest friend, @JunkMail who has been very insightful and overall joy to work with.

I am very much looking forward to watching our stories continue to unfold as we build and shape the world of Santa Celia together and with whomever else might join in later.

Once again, thank you guys for such a great GMing experience already. Here's looking at 40 and looking towards 400!

I basically second everything this man said about Santa Celia. A happy surprise, for sure.
