So. Hi.I'
Chatterbox: Down to Earth
So. Hi.I'
So. Hi.
I'm very much happy that you are reading this thread. Though, after you read the whole thing, you may have slightly unhappy emotions. Unless you hate me, which, well, would be very depressing.
Oh, I really spolied it, didn't I? Well, alright, lemme just say it. I'm leaving Cricket. There. I feel like it isn't as fun as it used to be. Don't get me wrong, Cricket is an exciting place full of fun rps. But it just doesn't fill my... Interests, any longer.
Now, when I say leaving, it's not exactly 'leaving'. I will post on a few rps once in a while, and I'm still continuing the Tree Town rp. But I will disappear for lonnggg amounts of time, and the rp posts will be short and uninformative.
PLEEASSSEEEE don't make me want to come back.... Okay, fine. You can. At least I can feel like I'm liked (Oh gosh, that sentence was really depressing).
And I may come back. Yeah yeah, now this post sounds like a fake goodbye. It isn't. Because I really am set on this. At least, I hope. I just don't have the time, and I hate it whenever I go on vacation for a week, there are new rps that are started, and old ones that are bottomed. It's too... Busy.
I still have a lot of secrets that I haven't let escape, and I may not have fixed my past mistakes. There are many things I have wanted to be done. And there is one more reason why I will leave. But it will be hidden, stuffed into a corner so no one will get offended. I won't say it. Maybe I should? Maybe Cricket should know the real reason I left? Oh, my heart wants me to, my brain doesn't. Which should I follow?
See? Get what I mean? Look at me, I am sooo dramatic. I'm getting into that age where I seem so depressing inside. Welcome to teenagers, my friend. I'm slowly turning into one.
One last thing: I will miss you, Somebody. I will miss you, Brookeira. I will miss you, Squeak. And I will miss you, Indigo. You're someone I should have got to known better. You are amazing, please, remember that. You truly are amazing.
Should I put a little quirky sentence at the end, to end it off? Like I always do? Sure, because I love doing them.
Hello, goodbye. Good luck? No lie.

Hey Admins! Part of my post wasn't put on here, should i resend it or not?
I'm not sure what post you mean. We might have taken some of it out because it was against the rules to post. You can try again and we'll check it! -Admins

Hey Dnaie! I tried posting this earlier, but it didn't go through. Here are some funny mice photos I thought you'd enjoy seeing, in honor of squeak! Hope you like them !

Thanks Admins!
You're welcome!

Danie,
Go if you must, I'm sure you have your reasons, but before you do, I just want you to know that you are one of my favorite, and one of the best CBers. You can brighten anyone's day with your crazy awesome geekiness (speaking of geekiness, has anyone seen Geek Girl recently?) and epicness. Autocorrect says that epicness isn't a word, but for you Danie, I WILL DEFY AUTOCORRECT AND ITS STUPID AUTOCORRECTIONS!!!!!! You have brought so many smiles to my face, and reading your post, I almost cried. Sure I was sad when Red, Ruby, and SC left, but they were oldies, I'm a newbie. I never knew them, but Danie, I know you. I'm almost positive that we've never met in person, and I guess we were never good friends on the CB, but you were one of the CBers that I looked up to and loved. I've read so many of your posts, been one or two of your RPs, And even had to pretend I was you in an RP, but not as an imposter. I know everyone has said this, but you will be missed greatly. You had a big and lasting impact on the CB, and I'm sure that stories of your amazingness (also not an autocorrect word) will be passed down to future generations of CBers.
I know that you probably can't be convinced to stay, but I'll beg anyway. Please, please, please, please, please don't go........ Pretty please? Oh well, at least post every once in a while. It would be great if a couple months later you made a Welcome Back thread where you would come on for a few days and we could talk to you again, even if it was just for a little while.
I'm sooooo soooo sooooo sad, I better end this before I eventually cry.
Sorry for making this so long.
Well, I guess this is it, Goodbye Danie, have a good life, post occasionally if you can, and PLEASE don't forget us. I guess you're going to stick with your decision to leave, but for what it's worth, DON'T GOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! I'll never forget you Danie. Goodbye.
~Dragonrider
It seems Danie has decided to stay. She's submitted quite a few new comments since her "goodbye" message.

Danie, I'm glad you've decided to stick around, (just going off of what the admin said about you staying) even if you won't be on for long periods of time. Even though you and Squeak are the same person, you are both amazing and I really enjoyed writing RPs with you.
(August 3, 2015 - 11:41 pm)
Danie, please stay. I'll leave if you do.
I agree: everything goes too fast now. Everyone thinks it's fine to have TEN people in a rp. No one remembers the good rps because the new rps are like gum: lose their flavor quickly, chewed up, spat out. I'm sick and tired of that. No one really cares about alter egos anymore. The Chatterbox burned too fast and too bright.
And, well, I like ice.
It burned me to see the Cb lose its good rps, and it melted me fully as the new "gum" rps came in.
Why did I join them?
Because none of them were good enough.
Danie, if you leave, I'm hanging onto your coattails. I'll stay in my rps, but only if they want me.
Tree Town RP and Hogwarts rp are good, though.

NOOOOO!!!
Look, Danie leaving is already bad enough. Now you?
PLEASE. DON'T LEAVE. WE NEED YOU, AND MASKED PIESTER, AND EVEN THE VERY-SELDOM-USED BAELFIRE. NOTHING IS GOING TO BE THE SAME WITHOUT DANIE, GOD KNOWS WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF YOU LEAVE TOO!
So don't you dare leave. Don't. You. Freaking. DARE.
Fruity says hert. Yes, my heart is breaking with all these people that are leaving!
(August 4, 2015 - 12:06 pm)
l have to say that l am mildly insulted by your statement.
You're saying that all the RPs are terrrible? That they just aren't good enough for you? Look, if you think you know what a good RP is, THEN MAKE IT!
(August 4, 2015 - 12:07 pm)
No, I didn't mean that. I'm really sorry! That sounded awful.
What I mean is: take a normal food, like a salad.
Let us say person #1 likes to go to a certain restaurant because they serve big salads; ones that take a long time to eat and have less ingredients and taste better to the person for it.
Then the restaurant starts serving smaller salads with more ingredients and stops serving the salad person #1 likes. Person #1 has nothing against the people who make and like the other salads, but they aren't for Person #1.
I AM SO SORRY. And your Magical Instrument rp is cool.
(August 4, 2015 - 3:56 pm)
Okay, l understand now.
(August 4, 2015 - 5:47 pm)
I just want to clear it up: I'm leaving. Truly leaving. However, right now, I'm just filing in rp posts just because... Well... Let's just say that there is a big event for me that won't allow me on here any longer. So, I suppose this could be called a warning. For the very near future.
(August 4, 2015 - 7:09 pm)
Oh, OK. I'm not going to try to stop you, it's your decision, but good luck with your big event. Having you on the CB's been fun.
(I'll post for Mich on the fantasy rpg while your gone, if that's OK.)
Brookeira, don't leave! I will be the only Superhero RP-er left! :(
(August 4, 2015 - 10:25 pm)
Brookeira, I am disheartened that now, you too, are leaving.
I promise to always put more dedication and thought into my rps to keep them going!
I think I do understand why the oldies speak so highly of the old CB. I understand things change...but... If only we could be as dedicated to our Rps as Lindsey is. And if only we could make better RPs.
But the chatterbox is still a great place!
Don't leave because Daniel is.
I know that slowly, one by one, the oldies will be...well...too old! The new generation of chatter boxers will take over, with no one to guide them and give them advice. Because right now is when we most need advice and guidance.
You were always a role model too. I absolutely love your writing, and dream of days I could be as good as you. Brookeira, you are amazing. I will trust your descisikn to leave.
But it will break my heart.
I dread the day the last oldie leaves. The one who's given up hope on the Cb the last.
(August 5, 2015 - 7:41 am)
Okay, I won't. Danie, I respect your desicion.
