User blog comment:Bullet Francisco/What Inspires a Strong Sense of SNN Nostalgia?/@comment-5354215-20131113173200

I've been doing my best to avoid you up until now, Franc, but I can't not comment on a blog like this. As much as I reject the concept of nostalgia, it's a drug that's too sweet to resist. Here are my (positive) memorable moments:


 * Discovering the wiki for the first time. When the wiki was actually a great place to be.
 * All those cool blogs, especially Admiral's old comics that never cease to impress.
 * Making my first little edits to our articles. Here's my first one: []
 * Joining the chat for the first time and getting to know everyone.
 * Meeting Shadowunleashed13, SilverPlays97 and BlueSpeeder, the three users which have always been closest to me. I don't know what it is, but I still think that we four have a lot in common.
 * Getting noticed for being more mature and grown-up than most other newer users, a huge emotional inspiration for me to keep editing on the wiki.
 * Gaining popularity as a user, generally.
 * My Town Mission project! Creating and filling out all those Town Mission articles made me feel really useful and important. Although I have a new project now, I haven't had that feeling in a while...
 * Uploading my first comic on Halloween, "Shadow's Advice". It had a pretty funny joke that even Supermorff enjoyed. (I've deleted the blog but I still have the comic saved in my documents).
 * My birthday and Rollback nomination! December 2012: the best month so far. I felt as though I was loved and I was really proud of myself for that achievement.
 * Being told I was ready for adminship in said nomination. Another huge inspiration, but in retrospect, that statement was probably a little too optimistic!

It ends at 2012, to be honest. I don't have many good SNN memories from 2013. Well... there you have it. Now to continue pondering my future.
