Ok. I REALLY

Chatterbox: Down to Earth

Ok. I REALLY

Ok. I REALLY need to say something. 
Guys, I know you love looking at old threads. 
And seeing when everyone joined.
And scrolling through old RPs.
But I'm going to ask you to keep these threads alone. 
These are like old things from a museum.
They are there to look at. 
To gaze at.
To jaw drop over.
But not to comment on.
Whenever I see a thread from the past, I feel like someone... intruded on our privacy in a way. It feels like someone stole the specialness of the past. 
I would love it so, so very much if you stopped posting on old threads.
If anyone else agrees with me, please speak up!
Thank you for taking the time to read this.

I understand what you're saying, Butterfly, and I'm posting this for others to read. However, no Chatterbox threads are ever really closed. We do not change old comments once they are posted, but there's nothing official to stop new comments from coming in on old threads and continuing the story or discussion.

back to the Down to Earth

I do agree with you, Butterfly. When I saw the thread "Vegetarian" and saw that Everinne, Nora, Book Wizard and Winter names at the bottom of their comment I got very excited that they were back, then I saw the dates they were posted, 2014.... It made me really sad... I personally love scrolling through old threads from 2014, 2015, and earlier, some I was a part of some not, but posting and bringing them to the top in my opinion is not a good idea, like Butterfly said. I really don't know if I'm saying this right but back to main point: I agree with Butterfly.

Butterfly- I'm really starting to feel bad. Do you know why? It's because I'm starting to see things from your perspective- what with all the new CBers brought in by Kyngdom, and the old threads resurfacing. It's not a good sensation for me, to feel what you must be feeling.

I'm sorry.

Butterfly,  I know what you're saying. When I first joined, I went back to the about the ninth page of the Inkwell. Then I realized this is history. We aren't supposed to know all the details, even if we think it'll make sense. I know what you're saying, and I respect it.

I understand. When I first joined the CB, I joined a RP on pretty much the last page. Back then I was even known as my real name. But sometimes you know the RP's not dead, and you post to put it back up...

Swift says "rupe." Isn't there a currency called a Rupee? Where did you find it? *I reach out to touch it. Swift bites my nose.*
