I'll skip the boring parts. Actually, these threads are always boring, so I blew that already. So yeah, bye and such. There's many things I want to say but they're probably against the rules and I'd rather not get into that. Many people will be happy I'm gone, and others probably don't know who I am. I suppose it's appropriate to apologize to anyone if I have been a negative influence that has convinced you not to post on the forums or even make you ponder leaving.(Hope those people see this.) I can't make up my mind anymore. If I'm nice and sensitive here, I get ignored, teased, or trolled. If I act the opposite, I get scolded and lectured. Some people say "it's the internet. deal with it" but that's precisely what made this place so unique in the past. I remember mentioning it in my introduction. My avatar is surprisingly an accurate representation of how I feel when coming on here each day, to what I feel like when I leave. I may hang around here for a few more days, to see if some questions finally get answered. I now know why I never made any friends here, and I know it's not just my behavior in the past. I feel very upset right now since this is only half the story, but the other half is very unpleasant, and like I said "probably against the rules." Despite what people may think, I cared about this place so much, but that itself is sensitive and leaves me vulnerable to trolling. Jeez, listen to me. I may as well draw my OC walking alone down a muddy road in the pouring rain just to add to the drama. So yeah, I'll cut it off there.
sigh...Even though we haven't really talked I always liked your presence here. You're one of those people who are a little less afraid to speak what they feel, but still retains a bit of a soft spot for kindness. Sure you can say some things that aren't the best at the time, but we're all human. I think sometimes people get too sensitive on things said around here which leads to a lot of that drama. I don't blame you for your choice, but I am a bit saddened you'll be leaving.
These are both pretty much what I'd say summed up, I know we never really talked or anything, but your precense on the forums was a real nice feeling everytime I'd scan over somethin', and the community post headers are/were awesome too! (Thank you man, really.) It's a real shame seeing you leave. I wish luck and happiness to wherever you end up finding yourself in the future if you decide to leave completely. (If this sounds in any way blunt or offensive in the slightest, I wholeheartedly do not mean it. I apologize if so.)
We've had our disagreements in the past; live and let live as they say. I wish you good luck in your future endeavours wherever they may take you. I hope you get to a better start in the future. You always were too hard on yourself. There are a lot of people here who do care about you more than you think. You may not like to admit it, but you certainly aren't alone, and you definitely don't have to be. Regardless of what you have said, done, or experienced in the past, people like you for the person you are, and for what they think you will become someday. Maybe EP has been a negative experience for you, maybe it's been a boon. Maybe nothing has changed. But you can leave knowing that you tried your hardest, and hopefully you can take the notion that you did attempt to put yourself out there, knowing the risks, with pride rather than shame. You deserve a good farewell. I may not necessarily have the most... positive history with you, but I've learned over the course of these two years that it doesn't really matter what I think. As long as you pull out of this in a good way, I think everyone can learn from all of these experiences. Don't listen to SunBurn. Put yourself out there. Show people just how good of a person you can be, aspire to greatness, and you will have people you cherish and people who cherish you. Having feelings is not weakness. It is the best thing you can possibly have in places like this. You have to make yourself vulnerable in order to improve as a person. If someone jabs you in your 'soft spot' just move on. You'll become stronger in the end. You can just take what I say as you will; to some here it's just glory-hogging I'm sure. It's just what I've learned, and what I hope you can use as well. As Mike has said, we'll miss you. Even I will. You've been here a long time, and I feel like a part of EP is going away with you. Good luck, and godspeed. You deserve at least that much.
So long, Janemba. I always hate having to see any member leave the Forum, especially someone who has been around for so long. Don't be afraid to pop in now and again, its obvious your presence and contributions here are valued.
See ya, sad to see you go. I hope you can just act like you want to act in the future instead of pretending. Happy trails.
Dang. I hate to see you leave Janemba. Thank you so much for the pictures you made for the CP, that helped us out a lot. I hope you either come back or at least have a good life. Talk to me on skype if you want to, I'm always open to talk :c. <3
Wow, sad to see anyone go I guess. It's sad that I never got to know you, but just by reading your farewell, you seem like a great person. I hope you fare well in the future, and I hope that you find where you truly belong. I really feel bad to see anyone leave anywhere, and I just feel so bad that I hadn't made your friendship. I bid you fair travels (if you can even say that in this situation) and very good luck.
