I was originally just going to make this milestone a stupid shitpost like most of my milestones recently, but I figured It's time I outgrew that. It's been 6 years already, and where has the time gone?

I mean, I don't frequent these forums as often as I used to, and the time I've spent here doesn't hold a candle to some other people more dedicated than me, but this place used to be my life back in the day. Not a single day went by without me arguing with someone about why the next CoD is going to be trash, and now it's like I don't even remember this website existed. It sounds stupid to say it, but through good times and bad times, this is a place that stayed practically the same throughout everything in my life. Sure, visual overhauls and forum additions have changed the outside, but I can tell that the core of what this website is about hasn't changed one bit. This is the birthplace of many events of my life, and I can't just abandon it completely, no matter how laughable it makes me look.

I've made my fair share of friends and enemies here, but most of all, I've made memories. Memories that will stick with me as long as I live. I have nothing but my respect to give for the owners, administrators, and just the general community here. Even though I outgrew this forum, I can tell that there are still people here devoted to keeping this boat afloat, so I have nothing but praise to give for those who have stuck around and will continue to stick around. For a website to have such a lasting impression on my life to this extent is incredible; to even think that a collection of numbers and letters on a screen has changed my life so drastically seems insane. While I can't be certain that I'll be sticking around here much longer, I can be certain without a doubt in my mind that my time that I've spent here was not wasted.
Thanks for reading this terrible post I made at 1AM.
