...did you mean SW, or SP?
yay for posting more than once.
seriously, i only came here because, well... because i did. o-o there wasnt an ulterior motive to it. i had made an account here around the same time that basil blacklisted southperry, and i let my account sit dormant. i went back to basil in a buisness-as-usual mindset. i dont remember what lit the spark of the powder keg, but i knew at one point that i needed to find a new forum. i remembered i had an account here, and for a week weened into it, going back to basil a lot just because it was homey. then after that, well... i still go back there, mostly for the screen section. sure i may post here or there, but i just really dont. for a few months i acted and tried to become a mod there, but, after coming to the realization that it wasnt possible due to 1) i wasnt that well known for being a very up-standing individual all the time, or, rather, i was known by a small group that knew i had my own posting styles (this is all my ego talking here, so pardon my ignorance to others views of me) and values, but i was one of those few of the community that had maturity, and 2) i just grew tired of the site. i was probably only known best for my poems, which a small percentage even knew of, and that i had editted avatars that were accepted that by common sense ought not have been, despite that not being the case nowadays.
that was really one of the deal-closers for here, a forum dedicated solely towards literacy. my god, it was like i had an epiphany and an orgasm simultaneously in my mind, and i was just left wondering why i shouldnt migrate? the community as a whole here is more mature, and in some instances, more entertaining (nothing can top LLied from basil's past, nothing. sorry opeth/greg, you guys are good, but he caused drama that unfolded like a masterfully orchestrated pirouette of chaos before my awestruck eyes, and allowed my exploration of the persona and character roles of the original Tobias Black character identity. it was a good time to have had experienced). and, comparing basil's iRC to SP's... there is no comparison, SP's is better. just... in many regards, SP has its advantages and superiorities to basil, but for me at least, i will never be able to fully leave. ive still got people i know well enough and talk to over there, but dont consider yet to be friends, and for nostalgia/screens.
plus, SP has
