Welcome to Gaia! ::

I can't believe I even remembered my login information for this site. It's been 12 years since I last logged in, and even then I know this guild was mostly abandoned. I tried to access the proboard, but I couldn't remember my login for that at all and it's not accepting new registrations. I figured I'd post here because why not. I doubt anyone will see it but I still think of this guild from time to time.

I was 12 when I joined the guild and we were still playing around in neopet boards. I lied and said I was older at the time, but I was only 12 it was my first time roleplaying. My name isn't Angelina either, my nickname from my family was angel and I didn't want to use my real name so I made my nickname into a realish sounding name but yeah, my real name is Lauren. I had a weird and lonely childhood - neopets, specifically roleplaying on the WAR threads was my way to escape reality and for a long time the people in that space were my only friends. As I grew up, I met people IRL and gained hobbies outside of this space and just left. I regret doing that, I should have at least gotten some contact info from people to stay in touch but I just ghosted.

I'm 28 now, and still have a love of roleplaying games! Me and my friends play dungeons and dragons a lot, and whenever I DM and write I still use plotlines we used to write about in here as inspo xD

Anyways, all this is kinda a way for me to feel like I didn't ghost or not say goodbye. It's really stupid to think about a tiny corner of the internet from 12 years ago, but this used to be the highlight of almost everyday for me for ages 12 - 16. I guess I just wanted to say thank you, to everyone from the bottom of my stupid little heart.
