Title: It's been a year
Post by: Ducky123 on January 02, 2014, 09:45:51 AM

Exactly one year ago, we write January 2nd at 2:46 PM, the Gang of Five got another member. Me. My impact on the community wasn't big at first. I was very shy at first, my language skills needed improvement and I needed to get to know a few people before my true activity started. I've added some GoF members to my Skype contacts, joined the Skype chat and received my first PMs. I started Roleplaying with Nahla and somerandomfangirl, improved at writing my fanfiction that I started simultaneously to joining and uploaded my first attempt of drawing Ducky.
As time passed, I made more friends, gained more experience and eventually uploaded my fic at last.
The next big step was starting my first RP I think. I was so happy that almost everybody I PMed joined without hesitation.
I was utterly surprised to achieve something I believe only Malte279 has ever managed to achieve. I received three awards in the process of award voting which I didn't expect to be honest. I was fairly sure I'd get a few votes but actually winning one, and three at that? At that point, I realised how big my input must be.
It's now been a year, and I don't plan to change anything in my second year here on the forums. I hope that I can stay as active as I am right now and I hope that the community stays as strong and unbreakable as the Gang themselves.
Thanks for being my friends, guys!

Congratulations on your anniversary  :p Though we only started talking fairly recently, I already count you as a good friend (except on Dominion where you're my worst enemy  :lol)

Hope your second year goes as well as your first!

Congratulations on your anniversary Ducky!  :)  You were one of the members who were particularly welcoming to me during my first few months on the forum.  I was rather unsure of myself at first, but you made me fell right at home.  I hope that your second year on the forum is just as good as the first!

Happy anniversary, Ducky! I wish there was something I could say about you that didn't sound like gushing, but there's plenty of you to gush about. Your loyal, your smart, your a talented writer, you brighten up everyone's day and, of course, you're a great friend.  You rock, dude. :DD

Wooh go Waddles! Yes bringing back a nickname from the past hush.

You've always been a great friend to me you know? I miss our daily skype chats (I so need to get my butt onto skype <_<) if you ever leave GOF-I swear I'll be sad forever,you're life of the party,we all adore you. And hope to have you around for another 500 billion years or so. After 500 billion years THEN you're allowed to consider leaving,okay?

Happy Anniversary my brother from across the ocean.


Gee...my Anniversary is in March..gee time flies...a whole year of me YAY! Wait is a year of me really a good thing?  <_<.

Long live Ducky! (and no I am not  going to push him into a stampede..just for the record).

Just remember brother,


I will always be your friend.
Although we're far apart
