YES i typed so technically and i had that. "i am a character from a television show"-type writer's voice. i wanted to not be coppa so bad but im thankful for it now

i don't think there's anything particular in the forums. i have a couple posts that i don't understand anymore. but i've been mean to people in messages and trades, whether intentional or unintentional. oops.

100% embarrassed by my old posts c':
mostly on old closed species adopts.

i mean, i can't blame myself, i was in like
middle school/early high school so i really
wasn't as mature as i am now (although i'll
probably look back in like just a few year
and consider my posts currently to be a
little embarrassing)

it's also interesting to see how my personal
bbcode preferences have changed (i.e. i now
double list, italicize, & use font size 85 in
basically all of my posts/messages)

God my younger self always thought I sounded so adult in my posts…now I look at those posts and realize how obviously immature they were.

But at the same time, it’s also really cool to have a kind of time capsule here on cs. I don’t really post much anymore but, if I scroll through my post history, I can see so much about myself that I’ve forgotten over the years. I love having that record, even if most of it is of incredibly trivial things.

the way I used to write/talk is the reason I'm so glad COPPA is a thing, because i know i would be so embarrassed if it wasn't
I am a little embarrassed by my old pet names.
"butter xd" will never leave my mind.

Eee yeah for sure- especially the art. But it’s nice to look back on in a way because it shows how I’ve grown as a person, and how I’ve evolved with my artistic skill.

i’m kinda embarrassed by my old posts but i prefer to think of it as me just having fun online before i became too self aware rather than something to be embarrassed by!! most of my old posts were just roleplay things which are super cringey to look back on but the rp forums here are what helped improve my writing so i try to cut myself some slack there lol!! it is nice to look back and see what was on my mind as a kid now that i’m an adult :)

Ok, so back when I first started CS about 4 or 5 years ago, I didn’t understand the “How well known are you on CS” forum game and thought it was a self assessment type thing. I was trying to make a self deprecating joke (because that’s what middle schoolers do lol) and now I realize I came off as super rude. I’ve litterally thought about deleting my account because of this omg😭😭

Also my curesed old artwork I drew with my finger- but I’m scared if I delete them I’ll never have a way to get them back
