This is it...

[Venomstrike]

Greetings; new members and old friends. As of today, I have been roleplaying and doing this kind of stuff for 5 years and 8 days. That is a pretty long time... Through out those years, I have made lots of friends and enemies alike. I never had much of a life then, so I could always spend most of my time online, roleplaying and chatting. But recently, I met this girl. And now we've been dating for a month. Over this last month, so much has happened. But the thing that concerns you guys most is that I have been getting on very little. I used to love being here, and im not saying that I still dont, its just that... I love the girl I'm with right now more... So I've been giving her most of my time recently.

So much has happened to me in the last 5 years online, I could probably fill a book. With my leaving, I'm afraid the history of WC will die out forever. Eventually it will, and only us who witnessed those months of fighting and hell will remember it. But enough of that.

What happens to this site, I really cant answer that question. I will get on from time to time, mostly to talk to old friends. I've thought of giving this site away, but I'm not sure... Below is a small list of people who I will leave messages for, if they ever see this.

Amy - Thanks for being my best online friend. We've known each other for so long and been through a lot together.

Burnty - I just want to talk to you one more time... You were always really fun to be around.

Mist - Dewd. You were a awesome friend... I hate to have to say goodbye.

Rain - I dont say this enough, but thank you, for everything. I know things were sometimes rough between us, but we'd always end up being friends in the end.

Ivy - You rock dewd 83 You were funn to talk too

Invis - Sorry... sometimes I was a horrible person around you. I feel bad...

Moon - You were like my best guy friend. Theres not many guys online here...

Spotteh & Tama - you two were always funn, and of course hyper and funny lol (:

Spark - You helped me get my start. You taught me a lot... Thanks.

And too all of those that I may have forgotten, goodbye and good luck in life...

Gone, but not forgotten...

venom... i remember the first time we truly met. on that conforums site, where we trolled together... where i was a newb and you seemed so smart and great. well, dammit, i can't lie to you. even if it means being a newb, i would reverse time if i had to. you're one of the greatest, closest friends i've had on here. i hope you will remember all the times we've had together. i know i'll remember them... only now do i realize how much they really meant... actually, how much you meant. i could say everything to you. it seemed you always understood. i admit, i could not say what i really wanted to say to you in the c-box... i couldn't stop the tears and now my skin is burning from them. it always seemed silly to cry over losing a friend; because i've never experienced one so potent and strong. although it's been less than an hour, it feels as though you've been gone for weeks. i've only known you for less than two years and it feels like i've known you forever.

i hope you will get on again. maybe, one day, you'll be able to role-play again... i always looked up to you as a newb, and over the weeks i've taken advantage of a small friendship to make a strong friendship. i just didn't expect it would hurt so much to say goodbye. i didn't want to beg you to stay. in part of my mind i knew you would leave, but my conscience did not want to believe it. even now it feels like i'll get on and we'll have one of our regular, sometimes a bit violent, talks again... there is so much we could say, but the pain of goodbye will always stand in the way now. i hope you may find the time again, to be a member on these sites. i will miss you, and i wish you well in your new life.

i will always be your friend, no matter what happens.

I'm not sure whether to be happy or upset that Amy gave me the link to this post, because at first I didn't really know how to act. Though now I'm just grateful she did, so that I could reminisce. I never really had any times when I wondered what the heck you were talking about, because you were always yourself and everything you said and did seemed to have a reason x3. I always saw you as Amy's 'dad', because you were a role-model for all of us, and Amy is one of the most outspoken (and wonderful xD) people I've met, and for her to look up to you is really something to be warmed by. =)

We'll all miss you; me and the friends you have online that may never see this message. Heck, I don't even know if you'll see this. But it always hurts to say bye, and every time I see someone go, I get all light-headed and things don't seem to stop swaying. It's kind of a weird feeling of not knowing how to react, but I owe you a proper good-bye, because even if you never knew it, every time I teased you I was really thinking,
"That boy's going to make something of himself one day."
Even if you're much MUCH older than me (xD one of my many grandpas!)
you were still one of the best friends I have ever known, in and outside of my real life.
Haha, I don't really like that statement:
"Real Life"
Because here, everyone and everything is just as real and important to me as everything outside. You were one of the people I could look a person in the eye and truthfully say,
"He is my friend."
Without any regrets. =)

I'm just glad that you've found someone to really care about, and that you've committed yourself to her. I'm only sorry that your sacrifice had to be Warriors. I won't forget you, or any of the times I attempted to blow you to smithereens in the c-box. xD Those are only some of the times I'll remember, but even seeing you say "Hello" in the c-box was a treat.
Pursue your goals in life, and strengthen yourself to become more than the already amazing person we know you are.
=)
I won't forget the memories, so just remember them in the future and know that we're all looking out for you! I wish you the best of livable (is that a word?) lives, and that you continue learning from each and every experience you encounter. Don't forget the master battle techniques we taught (and performed on you) in the c-boxes of our many wars, but most of all remember to always live life with a smile and to keep on shining for those around you.
I'll miss you Apa, and I know this message might've been really long and boring and a pain to read if you read it (that's read in the past tense btw- curse these 'same spelled' words with similar meanings!), but just know that there are people out there who are caring about you and wishing you the best of adventures.

Sorry, forgot my password, and I'm too lazy to go find it. i came online, was kinda shocked. Like, WOAH, bombshell. Venom, I am very happy you've found a life =D Hopefully one day the rest of us can!

Dude, I blew my computer up and couldn't get it fixed cause my parents said I had to pay for it and all, and then I come on and see this, woah, you're leaving, I hope you and this girl work out. I always kiinda thought of you as a friend, because alot of people online can't stand my hyperniss and my impacentiniss, or how bad I am at spelling, I really didn't know any one when WC closed (or whatever you want to call it). I'm glad I joined one of your sites (and then alot of others) others wise I don't think I would have really stuck to RPing for how long I did, which was a short time (I hope to start again). Anyway, unless I see you agian, farewell Venom. ~Tama
