The amount of talent in this place, considering how large it is, blows me out of the fucking water. I mean, before here, I had assumed that 90% of all mmo rp was shitty and just something I would dabble in here or there once every couple of years for a change of pace. And yet, here I find myself spending as much time as on my main forum rp places. Not only that, but a good portion of users are kind, witty, delightfully wicked, intelligent, and/or perfectly honest -- which is something I've been hard pressed to find in most communities.
I like the way the site is run. I like the way people rp. I even like the way people go about their rp when it's not the sort of rp I like, mostly because there's no pressure for me to interact with it. Instead, people just do their own shit, and the only time I've seen it become an issue is when people feel like they're being forced to interact with something they don't like. Even when people are being critical of others' rps, I've always had a sense of "live and let live," which is how I personally go about rp. So, naturally, I greatly appreciate it.
I dunno, man. I've made it a point to not be too socially invested in ff rp (I generally don't pursue friendships from ooc connections I make here or in game), but I think the community here is the shit.
Also, I do believe that the moderation team behaves in a professional manner despite not being paid to do their jobs. Yeah, yeah, favoritism or whatever, but seriously, you guys, you don't know how fricking bad it gets on some forums (or muds or whatever) like this if you think this is the worst it can get. It's awesome here. Room for improvement? Sure. But that's everywhere you go -- people aren't perfect; you strive for perfection, but you're never going to find it.
Good job, everyone. Thanks for being wicked cool.
