Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

Some people prefer

Some people prefer to make friends and talk on other sites. But me? I love the Chatterbox. It is one of my favorite worlds to dive into. The Chatterbox. I enjoy saying those words whenever I can, because it means something awesome and fun!

What is your favorite thing/s about this wonderful place full of kindness, wonderful advice, friends, and amazing creativity?

What I love about the Chatterbox is that nobody judges you at all. In real life, people very often judge you because your appearance and general actions are judged, but in Chatterbox, all that's judged is what you say, and you only really say something once a day. I don't have a real knack for making friends, so the chatterbox is my best alternative :)

That is one of the great things about the Chatterbox. Thank you for bringing that into the light! I agree that plenty of people judge you for like no reason at all. On here you can most definetly be YOU! :D

one of my favorite things about the CB is that you can just be yourself, and no one will judge you or give you the look. I can start typing Hamilton lyrics, and other people will join in. I can post about how much I love snakes, and not seem wierd or out of place. I can say "*throws grass at you*" and people will respond by putting me in a headlock and dumping hay and lawn clippings on me. (yes, it was I who started that thread.) I love the CB. it's fun. it's encouraging. it's filled with amazing, wonderful people who all fit together like one of those 100-piece puzzles. all the pieces look so, so different, but when you put them together, it paints this beautiful picture.

*ends rant, gasps for breath*

*hugs everyone*

...Did someone say Hamilton? 

No but seriously I agree with everything here (except that I made that thread, b/c I didn't, of course, b/c I'm not Darkvine)

I agree with absolutely everything you've said on here already. I love being able to be myself, and to be recognized. I love having people "get" this side of me and have other people have that same side. I love the creativity and welcoming spirit. And so much more! Maybe I'll post more things I love about the CB later.

The CB is just an awesome place, and all the people are nice and encouraging, and the admins are helpful, and we all talk about interesting things! I always come back to the CB after a long day and feel better seeing everyone here. I also like the Random Thoughts Thread, because I have had so many random thoughts in my life, and now I have something to do with them!

-how we all understand each other. I'm still amazed at how we all seem to be kindred spirits, with similar ways of thinking and viewing the world. It's wonderful; whenever I feel misunderstood in real life, or when I find other people hard to understand, I know that I have my own community of people who just "get" me on a deep level :)

-the variety! We may be kindred spirits, but everyone has a different style, a different viewpoint and personality, and I love that about the CB.

-how nonjudgmental it is, and how there are no "popular" people beyond a certain extent. Some are more well-known than others, but it's not like everyone else gets left behind because a few CBers dominate everything.

-the occasional humor

-having AEs and shipping/friend-shipping them

-all the interesting things everyone says

-being able to share my ideas and opinions on things, and knowing that it could actually make a difference

-being able to share my writing

-and I could go on, but I think those are the main things :)

These are all wonderful reasons. I think that most just love they can be themselves and have fun!

What I love about the CB is:

1. If not for the CB, I would not have met a lot of amazing people, and even though I don't know much about anyone, it's still great to type to them. 

2. This is the first place where I've told people about some of the things that I don't tell my parents and friends. And it feels so good to have the weight of the things off of me.
