[aluber]

Been on CS for about 4 months now.

Best memory is meeting WarriorWolfGirl, she is fabulous and will forever be a piece of FABULUS.

Worst memory is when my first RP died.

I cant believe its really been 7 years

my best memory would have to be getting my first horses that i could dress up. Before all the horse graphics were changed, you could only dress up certain ones. My worst memory is that i traded nearly all my 2009 rares for these horses sometimes 2 or three for a common or uncommon when i first started. I had simply lucked out when i had adopted 1 or 2 pets and received a rare every time. So that is why i have a group entitled "my first chicken smoothie pets", as i am trying to get the ones i traded back at some point.

I joined CS March 27, 2011 after being encouraged by co-workers of the staff I worked with during my time with Foopets/FooRadio.
I was not given much information as to the overall concept of the site or how the adoption system worked. So the first few months, I did not do much with my account. By summer, I had learned more about how the site works and got very involved with trading. It didn't take long before I was hooked on trying to reach my goal. I encouraged my friends and several of them made accounts. This made spending time here even more fun since I now had people I knew to talk to. I used to spend a lot of time (Because during that period, I had more time) playing forum games.
With work keeping me busy and sadly, a lot of friends losing interest in their collections, I have not been as active for trading. But I still care about this site, the staff, and the members. I do wish to continue keeping up with the monthly outcomes and building toward my goal of having one each of every pet and item released.

As for not-so good memories, the more active I became, the more potential for negative encounters. I sadly came across a couple of people who attacked me in very insulting ways because I did not agree with their trade offers. Probably the worst encounter was with a group of haters who joined with the intent of causing drama for myself and several members. They called themselves the "Annoyance Crew". They made a forum game I had created their main target and caused so much drama the staff had to work day and night to counter their attacks. Thankfully, the staff was able to resolve the issues and those involved, were removed and the happy times were able to continue. The saddest memory I have is coming on one day and finding my trade thread had accidentally been "Snipped". I had put several years into that thread and kept it updated often. This happened at the start of last summer. Since then, I have not felt comfortable about making a new one. This has made keeping up with outcomes a challenge, but somehow, I've managed.

CS remains overall a wonderful community made up of those who see the value in assisting others in reaching their goals. It is for that reason, my interest continues as it does bring me happiness in assisting others in reaching their goals.

As for the better memories, I have made some friends here that mean a lot to me. It has been awesome getting to know them and being able to be part of their lives. Even with the demands of work, I enjoy the challenge of the events. Gathering tokens and just waiting to see what kind of creations the staff comes up with for us. And that is just it. They do this FOR us. They ask nothing more from us to treat each other with respect and follow some basic rules. In return, we have a place to look forward to regardless of the individual draw that attracts each person here. For some, its pets, for others, it might be the art or just to have a place to RP. Being a part of a site like this and being able to watch the growth and progression is an honor that is very much appreciated.

I have found ways to give back to our community. I enjoy assisting new members by giving them information and suggestions I wish I had when I first joined the game. I enjoy promoting CS to my friends and those I meet. I have operated a CS theme based chat on XAT since 2011 which several members here have spent time on sharing their experiences on CS and making new friends. This chat has come in handy during times when CS has been down. It gives all who attend a place to spend time during the withdrawals of not being able to access ChickenSmoothie. All are welcome to be part of the chat and are welcome to use it 24/7. If you are interested, you are welcome to message me for more information.

Another way I like to give back is with the creation of a few stamps. One was created for those of us who survived the down time during July 2012. A down time I ended up being very grateful for as it allowed myself to be reunited with someone who means a lot to me, but had lost contact with for over a year. The stamp codes are available for any and all to use by clicking on the link at the bottom of my signature.

Thank You Tess, Nick, and the entire staff of mods, artists, and helpers who continue to make ChickenSmoothie an amazing place to be a part of.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHICKENSMOOTHIE!!!

Happy late birthday CS!

My best memory on here was meeting all of my good friends. I never did expect to meet people from all over before. I'm glad they accepted me into their little groups and introduced me to more of my friends! I never really had friends on here besides the ones in 'real life' until I joined the Vocaloid Fanclub on here! I'm really happy I found it and made so many new friends. Even if some of the friends may of drifted apart from me and the others I still love em like I did back then and hope we can talk again! I developed a lot of my character concepts on here too and even won a few of my best characters like my, Jellybean Dragons! I also love how CS has Oekaki it makes it good for me since I cant afford a nice art program! I really love the pets and all of the staff too! Keep up the good work staff and lets hope CS can be here for many more years to come!

I first joined on November 10, 2011. I wished I could've heard about this site before then, because it's so awesome and I missed out on some pretty cool pets, but that can't be helped.

My best memory was when my friend introduced me to this site. It was during a free period in choir. She had been on here for almost two years and, in less than a month, I had been able to get more rare pets than she had. The look on her face was priceless. Sadly, she doesn't get on here much anymore, but we still talk in real life.

My worst memory, and most embarrasing, was when I first joined a role-play on here. Now, before you laugh at my story, consider the fact that I had never been on any site that offered role-plays before. I saw a really cool role-play that was called Highschool for Dogs, or something along those lines. When I was looking at all the posts, I had managed to not see any forms at all, so I thought you just made a character and started roleplaying, which is exactly what I did. If I remember correctly the owner of the rp said, "Uh... Who are you? I didn't accept a form from you..." I was completely embarrassed and explained how I was new and didn't know how things worked. Luckily, the owner was really nice and explained it all to me. It ended up being my favorite rp, and a version of it still exists. If anyone's interested, pm me and I'll send you the link. Sadly, the original owner doesn't come on here much anymore, so the ownership of the rp has been passed on to somebody else.
