Have you guys

Have you guys even missed me? I haven't been on in like 2 weeks and no one cares?! I'm feeling like we middleies don't get enough credit for what we are. We don't need a bunch of help and attention because we're new. We're not some oldie legend. So what are we? Nothing? So, I bet, I'm going to write this big long thread and no one's going to comment on it. I'll end up bottoming it because it's embarrassing to have a thread first thing first page with no comments. So you'll say, "Oh we care about you! Seriously! We're so sorry!" and then 2 weeks later this thread will be on the third page and I'll be back to square one. Sound about right? Ok. Nice talking to you. We're right where we started.

Oh, Savvy! I've been wondering for a while where you ane Ellie were! Now Ellie has been on for a few days, and you're back, and I don't want you feeling bad about it! You ARE special, and don't you go around thinking otherwise. I'm sure you might be thinking, "Oh, yeah, she's just saying this to be nice and she won't even top the thread."

But just know that we all care about you and you are not forgotten. You are awesome, Savvs.

Hey Savvy, we're seriously sorry. It's just that with so many Cbers, we can't keep track of everyone coming and going. Sure, we think "Hey, where's Savvy gotten to?" but we think you are busy with school, are on a vacation, or there aren't intersting threads for you to post on. It's definately NOT because you are a "middleie". Let's just forget about all of those categorys. 

That is what I think.

NO, Savvy. Just NO. You've got it all wrong.

Savvy, you are an amazing CBer, and yes, yes, YES, we missed you. You're one of the core CBers. You know that, right? I, for one, am nothing on the CB, compared to you. This thread made me cry. You are amazing, and please don't let anything make you think otherwise. I'm really, trully sorry if anything I did ever made you feel bad. You were missed, and don't let anyone make you think otherwise. Got it? Phew... OK. No more of this. 

If you ever feel like this again, let us know. It isn't true. Not in the least.

I have to agree with Butterfly here.

There is no difference between you or me, or you and Ruby, or me and Emij- we're all CBers, and that's what matters. We aren't discriminating people because they've been on the CB longer. We're all one big, happy family here.

Emphasis on "big".

I'm sorry I didn't notice you were gone, Savvy. I've had a lot going on lately, with school starting and whatnot. Besides, there are so many people nowadays that it's hard to keep track of everyone. The CB is getting crowded, not that that's a bad thing. 

Please don't talk to us like we're a group of selfish, unfeeling people. I understand how you're feeling- and right now you're going to be thinking yeah, right but this really does happen to everyone at some point, and I understand- but this tone is hurtful. I'm sorry I didn't realize you were gone. I really am.

I'm sorry, Savvy. Please forgive me.

Guys, you realise you're doing the EXACT thing she said you would do? The apologetic comments probably don't mean anything to her anymore.

Savvy, I want to be honest, so I'll admit, I hadn't really noticed that you were gone. I feel terrible about this, but my school started less than a week ago, and there are so many CBers, it's hard to keep track of who's who doing what, where, when, and why. You are seriously amazing, and I swear I'm not just saying this because of your post. I love you. You'e funny, you're crazy, you're super awesome, you're like a variation of me, one that I would love to be (if that makes sense). You are are so much more amazing than you'll ever know, and if you don't agree, I'll bug you until you do. Please believe that I'm not only saying this from your post, and even if you don't believe me, at least give me credit for being honest. I used the word "amazing" so much in this post because words can't describe you Savvy. You're too awesome for that.  Welcome back.

Oh. Wow. 

l don't know you that well, but really, you're not nothing, you're you.

True, l don't get noticed much, mostly because l'm not around that much, but stick with it.

Hello. I am Mobile Incredibly Resilient Intelligence System, or M.I.R.I.S. I speak on behalf of my master, Somebody, who for her own reasons has chosen to not arrive on this thread in person. Milady would like you to know that she is sincerely sorry, and is now considering leaving once again due to guilt. She would also like to inform you that you have little to do with this, due to her going through a bit of a bad patch-- the sudden increase in homework in middle school has proven to be something difficult to keep up with and due to the liberal late assignments she has accumulated she has been buried in a mountain largely made of homework and guilt. This has simply added more to the pile. 

I now speak on behalf of myself. I am worried about Milady. 

Thank you for your time. On behalf of both Milady and myself, I would like to wish you all a pleasant evening.

I wonder if I'll make an enemy with this post. Oh well.

Honestly, sorry for not noticing you were gone, but I think you're being a little selfish.

How many other people haven't been noticed? Do you think you're the only person on here that doesn't get enough attention? You're not. How do you think I feel when my name doesn't show up until the 71st page in a cber picturing thread?

How do you think The Great Tree Ent, The Conductor, etc. felt when their RPs and ski lodge rip-offs got pushed to the very bottom of the CB, never to be seen or posted on again?

How do you think I felt when I left for half a year and no one even noticed I was gone? Hardly anyone saw the goodbye thread, I don't even know if it was published.

If you're really complaining about being away for two weeks and no one noticing, then I have three words for you:

FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS. 

You're not the only person in the world, and you're certainly not the only person who doesn't get noticed, or doesn't get enough attention as they deserve.

Sorry for shouting and being generally unfriendly, but this is my opinion, and it probably won't even be "okay"ed by the admins because it's not rainbows and happiness and apologies.

The funny thing is, I posted you missing on the Missing CBer thread! I didn't see this thread for a while.

l agree with you on that point.

Sometimes l have felt ignored, forgotten, but that's just me. l'm a depressing person by nature. 

There's other people in the world. You're not in the spotlight. Move on.

Also, Savvy, I have to admit, Butterfly and others are right. The CB is full of people. Many, many people. There are so many of us that I think it is really hard to keep track. You are not the only CBer who has gone and not been noticed. And two weeks isn't that much. I'm sorry, Savvy. You are still really great.

Savvy, I've never forgotten about you. I realize that I shouldn't be sitting here apologizing, because that won't change anything. But I can say this: you are one of my best friends on the CB. *super tight hug*
