Chatterbox: Down to Earth

Nostalgia... it's bee

Nostalgia... it's been five years since I've been here. It hasn't changed much :)

 

Thank you Admins, many times over!

 

To new readers and commenters, I hope your time here is as fun and better spent than mine was...

(Also, what is an AE? Is it a Pokemon thing?)

 

An Alter Ego is a character created to express a different side of a Chatterboxer's personality. Not Pokemon.

Ah, yes, AE is a very fascinating thing. As Admin said, it is an Alternate Ego. Some on the CB use it to show other parts of their personality (they use it as a character), while others use it just as a side character to chat with. Usually, they will talk in bold, italics, or bold and italics. They are really something to consider doing, it makes everything so much more interesting.

I can see the interesting...

Yes, the "interesting" part is quite easy to find, and I suppose it keeps many people away from the AE world. If you only have one set personality and don't really find the need to develop something new in who you are, then AEs are not really something to take in. The main reason I do them is to add more of a living feeling to the CB, to join in more activities, and to show more of my personality in different ways.

Oh, not at all - and I think I was here for less than six months.  (But in terms of time online per day, I was not given to moderation*.)

( *I don't mean the Admins by that, haha)

 

Great to meet you all! I'm sorry to say I don't read Cricket anymore, but I'm sure it's as good as ever...

Oh yes, MewFour. The human-version of MewTwo. He has to be on my list of Favorite AEs.

Whoa, it's cool that you came back! Hey, I'm Savvy and I've been here a little over 2 years! Hey, would you mind trying to come back and check in on February 14, 2019? It's a date a bunch of CBers cans up with a few years ago, and I'm just trying to keep it alive. If you can't I frontally understand. So yeah.

Haha I'll see! :) Thanks for the mention.  Is there any significance to the Valentine's Day date?

Pleased to meet you as well!
