Salutations. A while ago as the Phansite started being less active, I moved to other platforms, and started engaging with new people, new communities. As a result I've really been thinking a lot, reflecting on the Phansite and my time here. In all that thinking, I've decided to stop just lurking and officially quit the Phansite, but it'd feel wrong going without a word. To be blunt, in hindsight, I think the Phansite truly was toxic, for me at the very least. At the time it all happened, sure I thought this website was fun, and everyone I met here were great for the most part. Though as I look back on things, there was an overwhelming air of negativity that I seemed to always be drowning in. The people I chose to hang out with and make friends with, it's now difficult for me to understand why I ever considered most of them friends frankly. As much as I loved this place at the time, now I realize it had a detrimental effect on my mental health, and I didn't wanna really think about it. The community drama, and the bad influences I had surrounded myself with quickly made me drift away from the person I want to be, and I'm not very fond of the person I was during most of my run on the Phansite. Teasing went too far, and said a lot of things that to me were just jokes, and I wasn't really willing to think too hard about the kind of impact those words had. I also went too far in criticizing people on some aspects, when in the end they were just new to something and still learning. For all of this, I apologize. In the end, my time here was a big misstep for me, an extended moment where I let go of the kind person I wanted to be, and regressed instead of improving myself. So I'm officially going, the Phansite, fun as it was sometimes, is now too closely connected to regrets, anxieties, fears, and so forth. Since I'm leaving, I've also transferred ownership of the Steam group, regardless of its active status, to Joker. Similarly, I'm abandoning my Wiki account due to it being tied to the Phansite Wiki, so for those who still care for that, I'd recommend backing things up and making a new one from the ground up, seeing as there will no longer be an active Admin. If for whatever reason you still wanted to talk with me, I apologize but I'm adamant that this will be my final post on this website, though I might keep an eye on this post for the next day or so. If you wanna track me down and try to follow or add me on Twitter or Discord, well I can't technically stop you from doing that, but don't be too surprised if I block you once I'm made aware. If all this seems harsh, I'm sorry, but I would hate to be dishonest on this matter. I don't mean to tell anyone that this site is awful, and you should leave. Just that in hindsight, I realized it was awful for me. I do urge everyone though, from time to time, to reflect on everything around you. Think about your environment, and the impact it has on you, and if you're truly the person you want to be. So this is farewell, Phansite helped me in many ways, but hurt me in many others. I hope everyone who reads this can think about who they are, where they are, and how they might improve, and believe in the song in your heart.
