Some may know, some may not, (though unfortunately it seems I'm the only one still around who remembers) that as of November 25th, 2014, SSS turned five years old. Half a decade. I was a little too busy yesterday to create a post about it, but here it is. This clearly has great meaning to me, as I have not bothered to create a new thread since 2011.
I still remember the first anniversary of the forum, it was Thanksgiving Day 2010, and I was extremely upset because I was forced to be at my grandparents' house who had no internet at the time. I would have rather been at home on the site than celebrating a day of gratefulness with my family, and that hasn't changed. This site has been a great part of my life since I joined. I've made so many friends and have had chance to create many great memories that I couldn't have done in my physical life. I was 11 years old when I joined, now I am 16, nearly 17. I'd like to thank Tasianna/Lighty, Amer/Kwah/Hawkfire and Ashton/Kirby for sticking with me all this time. Nobody has ever bothered to be my friend for as long as you three have, so thank you, it means the world to me. I love you guys.
Furthermore, I'd like to thank everyone who has ever taken the time to sign up on any three of the forums. Whether or not we were friends, you joined and that's all that matters. The forum has always been about having fun and creating experiences, and though at many times drama consumed the fun and things were taken too seriously, those times are still good memories, and that's what matters. So, if you signed up/joined and decided to stick around for a while, you created an experience and more than likely some great memories with people, so thank you.
I'm not so sure the day will come where we will be celebrating another 5 years, but regardless, I'd like to finally thank my friend Kai/Splotcatt for creating the original forum five years ago. You started all of this, and without you we wouldn't have all these great memories and experiences. Thank you man.
Happy fifth birthday SSS.
