    Also, yes, I will blame it, this is just another nail in the coffin to this place and just another place I will lose to talk to people, so sorry if I feel like blaming it for personal reasons, but I guess I can't have those.
    But you're not really losing people to talk to. You can join Discord or add them on steam or talk to them however you feel like. By chosing to do none of those things, they are losing you, not the other way around. It's not a blame you can put on other than yourself. We didn't leave, we just moved to another room, and we still come back here and post every now and again.

    You can have all the personal reasons you desire, but if you chose to voice them then you have to be ready for someone to come and go 'err, I don't think that's right...'. No reason to get so defensive over it, what you wanna do and not do is entirely your choice to make. I'm just trying to tell you that I think your blame is misplaced.

    I guess im not long enough in here to have that strong attachment and personally, i sometimes found myself rather lonely in here and still do, specially yesterday, but i do say, i kinda stopped posting or talking to people more on Steam, but just write in Discord (is that even a possible that this name is just like..similar?), might be a reason, but i have some other reasons for posting less and stuff too, i don't like to go deeper into it right now.

    Yeah I'm sad that this place is dying. But as you said, it's dying rapidly, slowly, and it has been doing so over the past two years. It's not like it suddenly got the killing blow now. The sadness I have about this place dying has faded away as the years went by and I understand the reasons people left. I might not agree with them, but I understand them and respect them. After all, this thread was about love and tolerance, right? I guess I still carry that philosophy with me.

    But it's not like we can force them back or anything, nor would I want to if I could. In the end all we can do is stay together and keep the community alive, inside and outside the thread. And I think that's exactly what we're doing.

    If this place dies, I'll miss it, but I won't lose sleep over it. Honestly, what I miss are the days when this place was a haven for people feeling down or having a bad day. The general atmosphere was frankly almost exactly what I imagine Equestria's culture is like; everyone's here to help everyone else, have a good laugh, and generally lend a helping hand, give a word of encouragement, or offer a shoulder to lean on. I suspect that atmosphere's gone because some people took advantage of it (or looked like they were), or put more effort into whining about things and siphoning positivity than fixing the cause of the whining in the first place.

    Now it's just a bunch of separate conversations that just happen to take place in the same forum thread. There's relatively little sense of community and comradery anymore. That's what I'll miss.

    I think we all agree this has been our home for as many years as we are here, but at some point in everyones life there is something that makes you get other goals then talking on the internet. It can be anything, it can be nothing, but at one point you just be there less and less and there will be a point where you dont even remember when your last post was.

    Nothing can last forever, no matter how much we want it to unfortunatly

    Unfortunately for me it is my art and job which I want to be one in the same some time in the future.This means I have very little time to talk on the thread.

    I'm going to have to say that it did kinda hurt the thread a lot. Discord app is neat for chatting, sure and short talk. But as far as it goes for having long involved conversations about certain subjects, its just not as good as a thread with the quote feature, and all the things. Whatever you post in discord is gone in 10 minutes to never be seen again. That and some people are really abandoned the Thread entirely for it. So, pfft.
