*sniff* Ya'll making me sad with all that stuff I missed! XD
I don't have much memories here. But I do enjoy my friendships I made with Yink, Yoshi4evr, and Yoshifrog..but mostly Yink, meeting her was wonderful! ^^
I do want to say that I do want to meet more of you and make more friendships. And also, out of the 22 sites I've been a member of, this has clearly been the best site, great people, great topics to talk about...I hope to be a member for a long, long time.

Ah the times that I have spent here? They haven't been to long, merely a few months at the least and from that time I have always read through the forums at this site. I remember hearing about this place through Joshi when I met him at Blinxy's board at least two years ago. It was there that I found out that Yoshi's had a fan base. This was amazing to me in it's own way because I never once thought that they did. I know, it turned out I was very wrong. I had always played games with Yoshi as a part, and he had been a cute character. After stumbiling upon Joshi, I became aware of his story known as YATE. He told me it was due to that story that he got a strange title of the "Author of YC". The characters in this picture always interested me: and they was Yoshiken, Mailtroid, and Joshi himself.
Through some months I would secretly come to this place and read through some of the forums. That alone though felt odd, like I shouldn't be here or have been reading what you all said. I had always heard stories of the battles and times here at these boards and they just felt "holy" in their own essence. I had heard stories about all of the members here as well, and reading through what they said was something unlike any other. What I heard was not a lie at all, everything said was true. This place was great and so were the people. Finally, after a long set of time I decided to join. It took so long, due to the fact I didn't want to crowd Joshi; meaning I didn't want to be in to many places as he was so he could have his own privacy. Luckily, Joshi never seemed to mind and I really thank him for showing me this place and allowing me to meet the people he had so long talked about.
Since the time I joined, I have always deeply appreaciated the people and things among this place. Long ago I started working on a game, which never really quit but due to some certain things that could not be rounded it stalled. Someday I do hope to complete what I had promised so very long ago. Over those months I met many people; these being Graedius, Teh, YW, Dragon, Tempest, Timmy, Blood, Mailtroid, Strangie, Eddy, PinkFloydYoshi, Lazoshi, and Gar. It was these that I always heard tales about, times that they had been through and what they thought of things. Joshi spoke of them like no other, I always thought no one could be so perfect as they were told to be, but I was wrong. I've utterly admired everything about the people here, from their views to their perception of the world.
Since meeting all of these people, so many have become very dear in my heart. I still thank Graedius for the things he has done, and always does for so many; if it wasn't for him a lot of things would be diffrent. He has wisdom, and grace in his very own steps. The things he does, and the way he creates them can sooth the most wicked of things. I thank him again, so very much for what he does. And come on, I always heard he was the furry raccoon, how can you not adore raccoons. YW has always been there to give word to so many, and give what he feels in his mind. Blood is always full of spunk and spirit, just like I heard, and he is always ready for a good laugh. Gar might just be a "ranting dragon" but there's a lot of goodness behind the mask that is held up, he shares so much, and deserves it back. PinkFloydYoshi could answer anything, about everything on the computer, if you're ever in a sticky situation he is always there. Dragon is a man of many words, many positive words toward many people. He has gone through a lot, and made a lot out of it. Teh is the artist of the block, drawing whats from his heart and never missing a celebration. If you're ever down, his words heal like no other. Timmy, oh Timmy, the admin of these boards has gone through a lot in this online place, I don't see him much; but he is always willing to perk an ear toward everything that is said. Lazoshi; oh where oh where could I possibly begin or even make sense of this. If you ever wish to meet intelligence in its true pure form, you've never met LZ. LZ is the brightest I have seen, and full of wit and charm. Eddy, always willing for a fun RP; and always out there to try new things. I may have just met Tempest, but from what I saw and what he said, he's a truthful man who won't fall short of what he believes in. A fighter for whats inside of himself, something that is so rare in these days, and should be cherished.
So it's been true, everything that has been said about the people here. Joshi didn't fall short of his descriptions, he knew them well, and seeing them first hand I know how great the people here really are. If only Earth itself could know what wonderous people laid amongst it.
We all may live far apart, in diffrent states and diffrent continents but one thing stays the same. We're a community and we do act like a family, that has never fallen short. Yes at times there is a strife, a battle, and you feel left out. But, don't we all feel that at home sometimes when the days seem to grow dreary. In truth, this place has grown to be a lot in so many ways. I may not say to much, but I'll always agree that YC is above all the best known community that I have ever seen with my eyes. That alone, the art and writing here is above average, above all bars. There is heart in what the people commit to and create.
I've seen many places, that always cast new members aside. But this has never been close to one, no not a bit. Since I came here, they always welcomed every new member with open arms and made them feel at home. This place has that special feel to it, that touch of home and heart. That warm hearth from inside, like an eternal flame that never goes out. I can't tell you anything that should be changed, couldn't even come to place a false thought in that, it's impossible. YC really is perfect because of the people who made it that way.

Ah, I remember my first days, back when people didn't think I fully understood what I meant when I said I could talk about anything. I hope such doubts have been laid to rest.
I remember a lot of things. Big stuff, like when "Yoshikenitis" got out of hand. I remember medium stuff, like when Tempest was designated the official Lord Of The Dace, which also got out of hand. Even remember the small stuff, arguments/discussions that I was a part of, which were stopped before they got out of hand and became medium or big stuffs.
I think I used to be a lot more energetic and make off-the wall posts more often. I think I should start doing that again. On the plus side I didn't use emoticons. I think it's funny how I went from being one that sowed chaos to being someone who is supposed to keep order.

lmao Lord of the Dance! I still remember that. I had a little biatchfit about it, and Soul really took it to another level. So sad to see I couldn't appreciate good humor back then, but it's good to see how I've grown. Awww, Daxxe, you rockzzies! *flying glomp* Contention, you are one of the most inspiring people I have ever met, and I am glad that we get to talk from time to time.

I've matured... quite a lot since March of last year. Muahaha. I've loved the time I've spent here, and I meet someone new every other week or so. I've mellowed down quite a bit since I fist joined, with the account that I lost the password to. =D I've managed to get quite far with communication, even without AIM or a Wi-Fi connection (I'll have to get myself one of those...) Haha, I missed all that insane stuff that everyone did, but I'll never forget the people that joined at around the same time as me. I think Blood's the only one that's stayed. Hmm, looking at my old artwork makes me laugh. Agh! IT BURNZ!!! IT BURNZ!!! (Sorry for the hugeness...)

I post art on here sometimes, but since I only do free hand it kinda sucks. XD My first picture was of Knuckles, a few of you saw it. I haven't spent much time here. But I do still have a picture from ICE! It's me and him as kirbies. It's cute. Double-scoop ice cream
And I've made lots of friends. teh yoshi, Tempest, Yoshifrog, DBY, ICE, Enrique, Blood, Edward Dinero, and a lot of others that I can't think of at this moment.
I really do love this place, and in the near future, I plan to make a landscape for this site of all the Mods/Admin. XD, you guys'll decide if you like it or not.
