Wooo! Happy birthday CS! :D It feels like it was only a year or two ago I started becoming active, but it's been way longer! I remember being a part of the whole roleplay hype on ProBoards back in 2008 (those were my rp glory days). These days ProBoards has seemed to come to a "mostly" dead end (except the people who stayed all these years). Still... I'm glad I joined CS when I did (late 2009, but I didn't become super active until mid-2010).
Now let's see... my best CS memory. Okay, well, actually...! The first time winter merged with me. :D It's funny because at the time, it wasn't actually my best "memory". In fact, I 100% admit I was pretty worried. Winter and I were good friends with Satamoru, Azalea, Clowesia, Tamed, and Mukumuku back in 2010 (some we still talk to even today). I met winter, I think, on an art stream (probably azalea's?). She had already known her and a few of the others (I believe) before me, so when she asked to merge I was really hesitant. I wasn't her first friend, and I didn't think she liked me enough to want to merge with me over other friends she knew longer. I was also hesitant because I really didn't want to be scammed, haha.
BUT. Funny enough, three years later (well, way before that, too), I'm really glad I agreed! Winter, by far (shhh don't tell anyone else), is my closest online friend. <3 We don't talk as much as we used to (with both of us being more busy and having more responsibilities as time goes by), but we still talk a lot. Sometimes I feel like we have that relationship where we can ignore each other for weeks, but immediately hit it up again on a random day. I have absolutely no regrets, and I'm so, so glad we met and became friends! So while merging wasn't the best "memory" at the time, to this day, I think it definitely is my best memory on CS (and also when she gifted me one year on the VR Hoarders fan club for a secret santa! Haha! I remember she was so mad (and had been ranting, though I didn't know it was about me at the time) because I had so many high-end pets on my wishlist, but she still gifted them to me and look where that ended up! ;) No harm done!).
There are a lot of people I can remember being friends with when I first joined. Since then, some went active, I've fallen out with some, and while I talk to some still, I don't talk to them as much anymore. Winter is one of two people I still actively talk to on a regular basis from back in 2010. She's basically my best friend, and she means a lot to me. <3
