Imagine if Disney ruined it, after all that time spent waiting! Glad we got spared that." - Meova "I made lifelong friendships here - K12 and I even met up IRL! I'm friends with so many of you on Facebook and Instagram, and keep track of your lives. My "big brothers and sisters" here helped to kindle my love for writing and helped me to hone my craft. You helped me to grow as a person, to learn how to debate, and gave me a sense of community when the other kids involved in my day-to-day activities were often mean to me. I remember fondly the days when logging on to FG to chat with my friends would be the bright spot of my day. " - HollyShort9 "Wow, has FG been a huge part of my life! I grew up in the middle of nowhere in a place where people hated to read, so for so much of my teenage years, you all were such good friends to me! I remember being so excited to share with you all when I left school and started university, then I graduated, then I got a job in my field on a short term contract, then I got made permanent, and now I've been here for 5 years. The whole time FG was there for me like a second home. " - Cabaline "this is such sad news but i completely understand why it has to happen. this site was my first experience with fandom and the internet in general, and i have such fond, foundational memories of this place. thanks for keeping the lights on for this long! i'll never forget my time here :)" - lackingimagination "it's been a wonderful and safe place for all of us as kids and teens exploring the internet, creating international friendships and seeing several age/friend groups grow up and eventually fly out, but always having had this spot to return to and indeed get a little smile. Thank you for keeping the lights on for so long! And thank everyone for making this such a lovely community!" - Iris "If I had never stumbled upon this site back in 2011 - my life would be completely different. This was not just my first place to embrace writing, but it opened the door to my art and graphic design/web design. Without the positive exposure you guys had on me - the interests I have now would have never grown and blossomed into what they are today. Heck, I'm finishing my bachelors degree this semester to add to my music degree. Finishing goals I've talked about years ago, here! I guess it's sure to say we're finally all grown now huh. 3 " - Amber Root "I just wanted to express my gratitude to Michael, and to all of you, for this wonderful community that's defined so much of my life and has made me so many lovely friends. I currently moderate a number of communities and am often asked how I'm so good at moderating and administrating them, and I always cite this place as a big place where I picked up those skills." - p5ychic "You guys have really helped me through some tough times, both when I was a teenager on here ranting and talking my heart out, and as a young adult returning to reminisce. It's strange to think that it's kind of the end of an era for all of us. I think many other of the slightly younger members on here might be of the same experience, Fangathering truly was my first encounter with fandom and fan spaces in general, and honestly nothing has ever compared since. You just can't get this degree of community anymore. I'll forever treasure the time I spent here - with the people who stayed and the people who left." - Josephine Fowl "I think for me, this place was a bit like Neverland, I could come and have happy thoughts, didn't have to think about the real world and all its troubles. I'm grateful for all the times shared and I'm so proud of everyone for how they've evolved." - artymon I\/ "It was my first experience with fandom and was such a fun and safe place to grow up online and I am very grateful for that. It completely shaped my online presence, I still use the username I created for this site for my fandom accounts and still use the nickname you guys gave me as my name online." - AFrules12 "nooooo D: i mean i understand but im sad. it's super sad. iris and i have been here on a nearly daily basis for years :( i still use DMs to write my trash romance light novel before i publish it. very sad turn of events but it makes sense. but still sad" - Felina "I've thought a lot about what to say here over the past few weeks, but I don't think there's much left that others haven't already said. Thank you all for an absolute unicorn of a website. Thanks for letting me be a part of keeping things running, and thanks Michael for keeping the lights on for so long" - Battery "I have too many memories of this place, laughing at our characters in RPs, at how witty people here could be - and learning from discussions on the forums, about other people, countries and cultures... In the meantime I've lived across the world, and visited almost every continent, but this was my little window in the people scattered across the world who cared about the same kind of fiction as I did. If I could put into words the feeling of the 2AM sleepy high-schooler me reading and smiling on this forum, that is what I...
