So I've returned.

Looking around, as I enter this place again is sadly strange to me. I feel as foreign here as I did the first day I joined, yet the difference is that I know everyone at least partly. Though as I look at these ancient walls I see ruins of what I thought was once there. It all reminds me of my more foolish days when I didn't understand the world outside my very home from being such a sheltered child... As does it remind me of my greatest glories from the days of old where I learned and accomplished so much in record time and learned valuable lessons that would stay with me for an eternity.

As I bask in the glory of what once was the past I am still basking in the past and the ruins of old. Yet still within this fallen city I see life that thrives, even if it is so little and that it is struggling with all it's might to survive, it is still there.

I traveled far away from my once favorite sites, just to go to more active communities that treat me worse than those who live here, and yet I stay hungry for their harsh treatment just in hopes to call the few who do call me friend's respect and the respect of those who are there, treating me harshly. Yet how could I ever compare to this wondrous treasure which is rusted up, broken and old?

Am I complaining? Probably. Even so, this is mostly an observation of what I see. There is life here that thrives by just a thread and that life is still enough for me. I doubt my stay will be long, for again like a foolish being I can be I'd forget and go back into the other communities.

But for now, to me the only thing that matters is that I am here...

I am home... And it is good to be back.

(plus I've started to become more illiterate thanks to a less strict community during my departure and that such... so I need a kick in the behind again to get things set straight again.)

1) thats pretty deep, sounds almost like something from a medieval rp
2) i see what you mean about the lack of activity, most of the time the little bursts of activity are either because a member who has been gone awhile tells everyone theyre back or because someone like me gets tired of signing on every afternoon and seeing no new activity.

PS: i see you have a skype, i got moms old moto xt532 which has a forward camera and sometime in july theyre gonna finish putting in fiber cable (which, since were in the middle of nowhere, means that satan is opening a ski resort according to dad) so i might be able to skype then.

Thank you asdf. I was hoping to kinda get that feeling when I wrote it.

As I said I'll be trying to make my stay last this time so all should be good I suppose. I can see Alodor is still around lol xD

I don't have a cam or mic so when I skype I just use the chatbox. :p

welcome back, Drakel!

yeah, i definitely prefer smaller sites. i've had *less than pleasant* experiences on bigger ones, so i know where you're coming from on that.

i have Skype as well, but i only chat/IM, too. plus honestly i'd rather get to know interested persons a bit better before adding them to Skype.

Interesting, interesting... While I can't fathom why I came back I always, at some random point in time feel the irresistible urge to visit the sanctuary of a past that I've all but forgotten. And just to see the long sleeping Admin, Tempest is with life again after his long slumber.

Time to check out what I've missed.

I had a long reply typed out, but then the airport internet refreshed and demanded I re-log in, and now I don't feel like rehashing so...

Yeah. Totally, dude.
