trollololo this is gonna be a spam post cause it's so long~
I actually first came on just one month after this time last year, and holy s---, this last 11 months has been a roller coaster. I first came on here looking for Star Trek quizzes cause I was wondering how much I really knew. This site, surprisingly, came up repetitively, so I started taking other types of quizzes here. Naturally, since I'm just like that, I found the forums while exploring every nook and cranny of the site. I had already created an account, so I just started posting. A quick way to get here, I remember, was to just log in, and it brang me to that old "What to do~" thread, (which still makes no sense why that's the default place after logging in) and I think that's where my first actual post was located, and the only post where I didn't have a profile picture. Over the next few months, I was a bit annoying, I know now. I was a total arrogant a--hole to everyone, and all I cared about was talking to someone, when I had no friends. Eventually, I stopped coming on as much because I had no one to talk to. When I came back on, I slowly started realizing that there were just some people I shouldn't try to talk to, and so I did just that. I made a few friends, and my status bar slowly went up through my quizzes. then when the glitch happened that made my status go back to the beginning of novice, I completely freaked. Eventually, I made more and more friends, even helped some newbies become actual good users, mature and all. I made and lost a few gfs during my time. Even through all this good, though, I was still an a--hole sometimes, and still got into fights. Once I got extremely close to a flame war even, but luckily it never got far enough for nukes. Later, I learned better how to deal with people, and to ignore the trolls, as before I took everyone's insults completely seriously. In recent times, I still remember the night I met Alli, or emoclicker, for those who only knew her by username. We fell in love eventually, and it was perfect. Absolutely perfect. Sadly extremely recently, she got pulled away from here by her mom. As of now, most of my old friends rarely come on anymore, the ones I had from the beginning are almost all gone by now, and I rarely have anyone to talk to except a select few. I'm finding myself slowly fading away from this site, even through all of my experiences, and to at least try to get the same amount of good experiences as I used to, I'm coming on more and more often, but I get nothing more out of my time here... I don't know what to do. Maybe I should leave, maybe I should stay. I don't know. Or maybe this is all in my head, and caused by my loss of Alli and the pain I gained by it. I don't know. All I know is that I miss the good ol' days. And now I'm beginning to realize what you older users were talking about months and months ago when one of you made a thread saying how "GTQ is being overrun with newbies". I don't have a thing against newbies, as I by many's standard am still a newbie, but I just understand better now what you've meant all along. Looking back, I see how much I've matured, and I'm both sad to see my old, happy self go, but glad to see that I now have a lot of experience, for someone here only 11 months. -
Seriously, THAT took a full hour to type???

It was 2012, I was searching for some cool quizes. I saw a quiz "how cool are you?" I clicked that. it was pretty good. then I checked out this site tho I didn't make an account because I wasn't 13+ so next year on October I made a account named "mooniscutiepie13" and then "donotdisturb" "Abantazayna" I made some really good friends my quizes were in top lists too. but then the geek hacked my donotdisturb account. I started to get less on. Most of my friends aren't here
I miss doodle,kish,anti,eva,sg,ket n much more.
tho I talk to kish,anti,ket,eva via facebook
but nowadays keturah doesn't get on. she doesn't have wifi connection on her area. damn
and now I talk to deathstar321,anti,bran on facebook like regular
sometimes with zeldafanatic16
so I just miss my old days here. I've so much good memories of my gtq family -
It was early March 2015, and I was looking for quizzes. Around the end of March, I tried to create an account, but it wouldn't let me.
On 2 April 2015, I got a new computer and on 14 April 2015, I created the account Adam123. I discovered the forums on 19 April 2015.
On 17 May 2015, at around 4-5pm my Adam123 account was hacked. I don't know who hacked it.
I used an account called qwerty123456789 and created my official thread on 20 May 2015.
The user Hiccstrid came on it a lot and I got up to 100 pages on 8 June 2015.
In the middle of June 2015, I went on Gotoquiz less frequent.
On 23 June 2015, I started using an account called Grampa Simpson but on 26 June 2015, I got an account given to me called Sphinx.
I got up to 200 pages on my official thread on 13 July 2015. Since then I am up to 248 pages.
Since I got given the Sphinx account I made 10 quizzes and a number of polls. -
Some time ago in my freshman year of high school I was looking around the internet to take some quizzes because I got really bored and wanted to test my knowledge on things as well as see what Hogwarts house I would be put into. This lead me to GTQ. For a good few months I didn't make an account I just kept taking quizzes then I found music826 Hogwarts series and fell in love with her story. She was the exact reason I made an account.
I can't remember exactly when I first started but it was with a different account, booklover411. At that time I didn't use the forums because I was unsure of how to use them, so I just kept making quizzes. But I got locked out of that account. So I made booklover412 and that's when I think I started to go on some of the forums but I was still very reserved because I didn't want to make an ass of myself. And I got locked out of that account as well. Which eventually lead me to this account.
I used to come on this sight every single day and spend hours upon hours just stalking threads. I made friends with Finchy (omega_wolf), Lone (who I don't think is on here any more ;-;) who was basically like a sister, ICEE, and Meg (DoA), and a few more who I can't remember their usernames. I looked up to the older users and tried not to stir any drama with them because I thought they were so cool, like Bob and Appa. But then, like the airbender, I vanished (except nobody needed me).
I went through a really hard depression the end of freshman year and pretty much all of sophomore year, so I never came back on because nothing seemed fun anymore which included this sight. I never said goodbye, I just left. On the occasion I'd pop up but that was it. It wasn't until recently that I remembered about this sight. And I was just like "Hmmm wonder what's going on and what everybody is doing. I really miss some of the users that don't come on anymore, but I'm sure they might resurface like I did. -
This thread's f---ing old jeez
Okay, found this site a couple summers ago, and it took me a couple days to realize that the forums exsisted and what they actually were. I was kind of antisocial at first, Cavernclan being really the only thread I ever posted in. But I don't regret that, that's how I met Rave, Omegy, Absol, and eventually Finchy (even if I did hate her at first). They were all great friends to me.
When I eventually did venture into the Lounge, there was certainly a lot going on. I remember partying with Icee, being terrified of the smart older users like Anri and Maru, and getting into plenty of arguments with BB back when we were both young and immature.
As time went on, I trusted enough people on here to share what was going on with my dad (which I'm happy to say has gotten much better and is still improving). However, when users like Misty started lying about similar problems, I was terrified that my friends would think I was lying for attention too. I got into lots of fights with Misty over stolen art and faked suicides, and while she never came clean, she did leave GTQ and her mistakes behind.
Unfortunately, things with dad got worse before they got better, and I got pretty deep into my depression. Panic attacks were frequent and in all honesty I'm ashamed to say I was probably acting like sademogirl or those other newbies who constantly talk about how no one loves them. I apologize for anyone who remembers that.
I went back and forth between leaving for a while, things getting worse and worse and eventually did leave GTQ before the first time I actually tried to kill myself. But not before Rave told me she had a crush on me.
That was really the first time I realized that it was okay to be interested in the same sex.
After I was done with the hospital, Rave and I started dating, we talked on instagram, we emailed whenever we could, we grew really, really close. I remember smiling uncontrollably the first time she said I love you.
Unfortunately, after about 8 months she left without any explanation. I missed her so badly, it drove me to try and commit suicide a second time. I'm really ashamed to admit this, but I've tried a total of five times and I used to cut almost every day.
But I made friends in real life. I got myself back together. I drew more, I met Sammy, I talked to my dad, and eventually found my way back to GTQ. I'm much prouder to say that I'm a much better and happuer person now. My depression is gone, I've survived. Sammy helped me a lot, and so did being able to talk to BB and Absol again.
Right now, I'm happy. I'm soaping and rping a lot, and getting to close to even more of the awesome people here, like Seth.
GTQ has done a lot for me. I'm really glad I found it.
And glad I wrote this. It actually felt great to get that all out. -
