I remember first writing to the Mailbag. My grammar wasn't great, I signed my name with a lowercase v, and I am pretty sure I have made David go insane after sending too many. I was 12 at the time, saying I was 13, to make myself sound older (which, I think know, was very stupid).
A little later, I joined the forums, hung around for a month or so, and then leaving for a year or so to work at another forum. I came back after a few very bad people basically vandalized the forum and targetted me as being uptight and not being able to take a joke, even though I was one of the nicest people there and smiled at all friendly insults. I had gotten very close to banning them, but the other staff didn't want me to because our regular member count was low (less than 6 regulars). I still think it was a pretty stupid move on their part, because the few bad people were the reason why no one was coming. Banning them could have been the best possible option.....Anyway....
I came back, saw that #tmk was open, and thought "This looks like a nice place". There, I met Sapphira, Meowrik, and a few other people. I remember seeing Chupperson around the forum, and he was one of the people who was very nice to me when I first entered.
I then came back to the forum after finding my password, and here I am today.
