hey guys. while i was gone this past week, i thought a bit about the place of this website in my life, and i realized something. i realized that this isn't the lego message boards. yes, it's the same community, but it's not the same site. it's not that site that held so many precious memories, and i've come to realize that i can't pretend it is. i have to take this site for what it is, whatever that is. i have to stop holding onto the past, and let go. of course, i also can't leave; i have too many people who care about me being here. so, i'm not quite sure the point of this post. i guess i'm just saying that if i don't post as often, it's because i've realized i don't care. this place controls my life just as much as the old boards did, but with none of the nostalgia attached. and, as i become more mature, i need to become myself, rather than continuing to be ultra. so, i'll continue to be active in sweet's café and continue to participate in the lshu, as well as the other things i do on here (such as my cowrite with daddy potato). but i'll be less active elsewhere, for i can't let this site control me.

Darn. First Car, now you. Remember, you will always hold a place in our hearts. We will miss your delightful presence. Good luck and stay safe. We'll miss you.

Yeah, It's a refugee camp. Same people, different place. It's definitely hard to control the amount of time spent on here and when people do go away, others need to realise that we all have lives and different circumstances. The actual staff and mods are doing a great job and keeping up with the community very well and all the posts that've been flying through. They've kept the high standards that the Old LMB's had, taking it 1 step closer to it. I must say though that I've noticed there's been less talk about LEGO and more talk about other stuff. In the end, I think this place'll turn into something else that's more like a normal Message Board and less like the old LMB's. Anyways, we'll wait and see.

You know, i felt that for the longest time until recently. This is a new adventure. With new people, and even its impossible to get the old LMBs back, we have this. This isn't a a safe haven for the people who spent their lives on LMB, this is entirely different. Unless you treat it that way, it's not going to be as fun. We all miss the LMBs but this is moving on, i think i have, even though at times it strikes me, and it strikes me hard, realising this will NEVER replace our old home is a good step. Don't feel forced to stay here if you are unhappy, you can take a break whenever, we will still be here. I'm still here. -Sweets.

I completely understand. The days of ultrageddons will be missed, but I'm happy to at least still have you. Don't feel too much pressure for posting here if you don't want to.

i guess i'm just now realizing that the key to enjoying this place is treating it as its own place. i'm gonna try to do that as much as i can. thank you for always being my friend, sweets.

ay, who said ultrageddons were completely disappearing thanks. i've always felt a responsibility to be on here as much as i can, but from now on i'm just gonna post when i want to (which will still probably be far too much )

You are leaving or becoming less inactive? I'm probably less active than back in January as I only get 15 ish notifications compared to the 100 I used to get...

yeah! its only a safety net if you treat it as such! unless you treat it as its own respectable being, youre going to be stuck in a loop of feeling like youre just here as an obligation! no problem, thank YOU for always being my friend, dunno what i'd do without you!
