*Wakes up*
*Open stickndoes*
*Daycore came back*
*Closes StickNodes*

y’know. I really fucking love this community. Yall almost feel like family.

I first got ahold of SN in 2016/2017. Barley touched it and was too ingulfed with life stuff and survive my home life to realize I can indulge in stuff.
But eventually in 2018, on my birthday on March 30th I got a Chromebook.
Wasn’t a good computer, could barely run Cool Math Games. Best gift I was ever given. Lowk wanted to complain bc they always got my older brother the newest, best phones and my oldest brother got a 1,000$ PC.
But I was greatful for what I got.
I looked for a animation app and rediscovered StickNodes and eventually discovered its community and made a account on May 20th, 2018.
I wasn’t well socialized, socially aware, or that clever.

But I was ambitious.
I always was.

I remember joining the site, a insecure little dweeb that was in a way craving attention. Lots of things I did at first was just for attention and validation from others.
You could say I was resentful. I even heald a grudge against BootLegSnake back then because I felt less popular than him.
Obviously for good reason I was lol.

Then the first user I met was either Demonic or RaymoxFire

Me and Demonic bonded our shared love of the dark and creepy. Even tried making a novel together at one point where some kids sacrificed a goat in the 1700’s during some sort of event.

And Raymox fire, I forgot what we did talk about mostly but I remember he had this ambitious series in mind and I tried helping by making my first uploaded figure, “The Destroyer” with his infamously SHORT legs.

I was sitting in my 9th grade math class when I finished a assignment and I grabbed a school laptop and signed into the StickNodes website to see that it has been published and dude I was ESTATIC.
I was so happy it was uploaded but being the spiteful person was back then had my ego hurt bc it wasnt getting more attention.

I eventually tried making my own series and even made a fig that even by today standards I think would be impressive, no clue how I did that even now a days.
But that series never got off the ground past more than a dozen or two figures.

I then attempted to make a series called “StickNodes: Endgame”. Eventually other users (collabing w me) was going to make their own SN marvel spoof like a “StickNodes: Civil War” and a few others. One of them was the prerequisite to “No One”

Eventually I got the first episode off the ground, it got mixed reviews, it was badly animated and real short, not much worth commenting on.
But then I uplaoded episode 2 and renamed it to “StickNodes: Calamity”
It got a lot more attention and even was featured!!! My very first feature, I never felt such a dopamine rush, I’ll tell ya. It got attention, some ppl made memes, it was pretty glorious.
Part of it aged BADLY because a user known as Radon was my friend back then and I added him into the show for 1 episode before killing him off for “stakes” ig.

I made episode 3 and that got featured too and was working on episode 4 when I realized that the show was too ambitious for me at the time and I canceled the series. (I seriously had over 5-8 more seasons in mind)

Then I looked at No One, this series was based off of another show I just cancled so I could either let that die too, or attempt to frankenstine it into something else.

I wont go too deep into it but after a attempt at making it a show and getting to episode 6, I realized I had made something special.
So I cancled the show and for the past 4-5 years I have been working on the revival. This show is legitimately my magnum opus. I cant wait to make and finish Epsilon and show the first chapter of this world.

Over the years I began meeting more users like Gigan, Damon, Kzilla, Milky, Lulu, Lemon, Slap, Manto, StewMan, Mellow, Manny, and I’m sure dozens of other users I cant remember the name of right now that has helped me form into the best person that I can be and some still pushes me further to be better and I cant ask for a better community.
Theres lots of users I love, more that I know, some that I dislike and a few that I hate.
But even the ones that I hate has brought something good into my life and I’d rather be dammed than not give them that credit at least.

@demonic You were literally there since the start and now its almost been a DECADE, how wild is that huh?
Thanks for being there since the start and putting up with me when I wasnt the best person. You’ve always shown comeplete support for me and my ideas and I can only hope that I have at least done a tenth of what you’ve done for me.
Sorry that we feel out of touch and I thought that when I was getting back into the community there would be a grudge. I felt as I mightve hurt you but you welcomed me back with open arms and was open to being friends again.
Sorry I dont reach out much, I’m not much of a socailizer but you do hold space in my mind bro and I’m happy youre apart of this community with the rest of us.
