I literally just got back after having been banned literally exactly three years ago. Permanently, for overreacting to a user on here who was pretending to be a robot for stuffs and giggles. I was twelve years old and pretty much drowning in testosterone whilst believing I was the equivalent of a fully matured adult. I guess the Blockland Forums, up until that day, had been my source of ventilation for emotion without me really realizing it. Simultaneously, I was here to feel like I'd had close friends.
Believe it or not, that ban was a wake-up call, but not immediately at all.
At first, I was pretty forgeted up by it. I'd lost the ability to access a place where I could anonymously relate and kinda sorta learn social skills. Yes, the BL forums were my only source of social skill development. But it wasn't that much longer that I became horrendously embarrassed. I'd taken a goddamn joke so seriously I actually blew up online over it.
I suppose this eventually led to me slowly realizing I had a sort of grip on my emotions. I turned thirteen, my older sister moved out, I skipped a grade and met entirely new people who taught me a load about confidence, I turned fourteen and I started homeschooling, meeting some friends online who brought the kindest side of me to light. From there, I turned fifteen and met two people who, to my sheer disbelief at points, have become my absolute best friends. It marked the best summer of my life.
One of which is my boyfriend, of whom I've shared a relationship and friendship with the most support, love, and awesomeness I've ever experienced in my life and I couldn't even begin to describe how happy I am that my life has led up to here and how much help I've received since. We've literally saved eachother's lives at some points, and I feel like saying we're tight-knit is an understatement.
So, yeah, the forums led me from being a mild family man to being a flaming homoloveual. I guess you guys didn't help even though you ultimately led me to happiness sorry oooooops /s
seriously though I know you don't likely remember me but thank you guys even though this is oversimplifying it
and yeah it turns out I'm an alt so hi
