Ghost- Yep, this feeling exactly. it's not often that i reread old messages from myself, but when i do it's like... "Ugh, this is so bad. What was i thinking?!"
well at least we're all in it together! and i know i've seen how much everyone's grown, i don't judge people's past messages, it just makes me more proud of them to see them now.
GOD MOOD i fucking hate 16 year old me, it's so cringe i have to stop myself whenever i start reading old posts. and like i didn't realize everyone around me was like. a Real Adult so i must have been so annoying
SO MUCH THIS. I'm like how did my friends who were my age now (28) STAND TO BE AROUND 15 YEAR OLD ME I wouldn't have wanted to be around me xD

This is a good way to look at it! :D It shows us how far we've come and how much we've grown
aww you and i were awful teenagers at the same time! i so appreciate all my old friends' patience, i definitely can't stand to be around 15/16 year olds now on these new social medias + cane & walker
Haha techinally I joined in 2008 but that was my first account xD I had forgotten the password and made this one/my mule when I moved and then had to have my first one banned because I was like oh crap yeah I do have 3 accounts, sorry about that! but yeah I wasn't active til 2010 lol
Legit xD I was dumb back then and didn't even think about it. I groveled so hard so they wouldn't ban me all together I genuinely did and still feel bad I broke da rules even tho it's fixed now lol
my violations from ten+ years ago haunt me it's no fair that they're where all the thread notifs are and stay forever even after expiring i used to think staff would like... judge me for my silly flobs violation every time they visited my page i was so scared of staff even though i was friends with so many-- it definitely took some learning to be able to stick to every rule!

Omg they do? D: I never got any of those on this account. I think I got a minor one on my first account when I was a dumb teen xD I was like 13 in 2008 xD
I know how you feel tho I'm still scared xD
On Voltra I am staff so less scared there xD
i'd be even more scared if i was staff, there's so much pressure to do well when you're staff, and if you break the rules then you're really fucked. but yeah all my violations are because i didn't check the date on old posts so i Necro'd, and then i came from a different website where flobs/image spam in RP posts was just the norm, so i didn't read the rules carefully enough to realize i wasn't supposed to use them here. they were all in the first year of me being here, but i was so guilty about them for so long
I think that's what mine was too actually. I didn't read the rules back then either, clearly
Yeah it was a little scary at first but I've hung out with the owner in person so we good xD I even crocheted him a bag and he said he still uses it :3
I know what you mean though I felt guilty about mine too, I think that's actually why I stopped being active back then xD I was like nah I did something wrong they hate me now, back to gaia! xD
I think I'll always be a little nervous just because that's my nature but yeah I definitely feel better about it xD
omg yes I was reading thru (and deleting ) some old PMs and I'm like WHY DID YOU EVEN SAY THAT WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU (like about my life nothing derogatory or anything) and then I cringe and I'm like of god did staff see these? OTL I had no concept that things weren't necessarily private lol
honestly i still overshare but at least i'm not... like idk i used to flirt by saying really weird outrageous over the top sexual things?? and me and my friends were always all over each other in the **s, and like with me not even being that sexual anymore these days i just look back at that like who the fuck is that?? why was i that person?? people just let me be that and still talked to me, i can't Ru, i can't
Oh same haha I'm like oh no I said way too much why didn't I stop myself
I used to be like that too tho so no worries. That was one of the things I was cringing about in my PMs too I was like why did you get so flirty?!
Daang rube! you got a lot of great ones! Also, while timmy doesn't count as a christmas ham, i love him and request he receive chin scritches "from me"
