Ashlee G.Participant15
The FutureLove the idea!
– I also used to think Top was a CBer that liked to annoy people
– My name years ago used to be Pandagirl AND Ashlee G. Yeah, I had two names that I treated as separate CBers for a prank… Prehistoric AEs right there!
– I joined back in 2012, yet most people know me of having joined in June or July of this year
– My old location used to be Washington, then Someplace (if I remember correctly), and now it is The Future. For by the time the comment or thread is posted, it's already the future. xD
– I rarely post anonymously, for I believe that whatever people think of me doesn't matter. I have a right to voice my opinion as I please, but I must be willing to face the good or bad consequences.
– I was VERY confused by what a Ski Lodge was at first. The entry to the thread always sounds very jolly and good, making me think it is an RP… Then I was shocked to find it is a murder story. Very surprising to see you were murdered one day!
– And finally, my favorite AE, Zeon, is actually based off of my gaming personality. Originally, he was supposed to be more of a pest, also based off of me. As I grew out of that more, so did Zeon. Same goes for my other AE, Quill. She went from more of a know-it-all to mature and calm, again like me.

ScyllaParticipantOh yes… I always asked Top what it meant, but it never answered…. How rude and annoying…
Believe it or not, Mei-xue did something like Pandagirl as well, only her pseudonym was Pandora. Only she's gone now, so she can't tell you… I actually dreamed last night she came back….

Remus ParticipantRavenclaw Tower~The very first time I posted on the Chatterbox, I was actually Doctor Boox, attempting to calm down everyone with cookies on the infamous Politics Thread. That name quickly changed to Doctor Boox/Ronan(my Kyngdom character), which even quicker changed to Remus Skeeter, or Remus for short.
~I have the only AE who is based off a real person, I think. Iona is actually based off my baby sister, Iona(of course).
~My current CB name came from a HP name generator.
~When I was Doctor Boox, I used to use The Dogs as my AE(kind of). All the dogs would say is "Row, row row" which I would then "translate".

BluebirdParticipantThank goodness I wasn't the only one who thought top was a CBer! (In fact, I didn't top anything for a month because I wasn't entirely sure!)
~My sister is Lavender (you may or may not know her, she posts every so often)
~I tried to join Kyngdom under the name Linh C. (Linh Cinder) but it was so overwhelming and I didn't know where to start.
~When topping, I sometimes put Bluebird in the name box and TOP of the tree in the location box.
~I chose the name Bluebird for 3 reasons: 1. I love the color blue (And I think you all know that by now, haha) 2. Bluebirds are symbols of happiness, and I try really hard to be optimistic 3. There's a line in a Fall Out Boy song (Novocaine) that says, If you knew, knew, what the bluebird sang at you, you, would never sing along… and I couldn't think of anything else, so it stuck!
~My first RP was about the 50s and only one person joined (so it never got started)
~I go through so many different phases and obsessions over a short period of time. It's like, one week I'm blabbering nonstop about the architechture of the Victorian Era, and the next I'm reading three books on the religions of ancient Mesopotamia. (The reason I used that example is because we're doing World History in History class at my school, which is so awesome! I love learning about that kind of stuff!)
~Hmm… what else can I say… oh, well, I use parentheses, the wink thing–> ;), the tilde(~) or whatever it's called, and the dot-dot-dot(…)(I don't know its name!) a lot on here. That's all the trivia about me, I guess.
~Oh yeah! And I have a captcha named Cha Cha(wow, so creative, but the name was actually a reference to the musical Grease)(Did I mention that I am a big theater nerd but don't actually do anything like singing, dancing, or acting?) I also have two AEs named Liaryn and Eyeless Jack, but they rarely speak.

Savvy44xParticipant•After I made a welcome post, I went on Crowd Sorcery, because Ellie said it was cool. I didn't really know what it was or what to do, so I clicked on "Start Here!" Which was a pretty logical place to click. It told me to creates main character. So I did. Little did I know, the main characters had already been voted on and I wasn't supposed to make one… It's okay through because my writing was really terrible back ten, and I hope no one ever reads that charge for sheet.
•I got on Cricket because my grandma gave Ellie the magazine. I hated the magazine. HATED IT. But Ellie kept bragging about how fun the website was so… Here I am. Don't worry, I like the nag now.
•I don't know what else to type…hmm… Well, one time I accidentally clicked to go to one of the back pages, and saw a Welcme post from, like, 2009, but I didn't know it was from so long ago, and I didn't know I was in the back pages, so I commented a big welcome post for someone named Claire who hasn't posted anything since like 2010.

Cho ChangParticipant– You probably wouldn't recognize me as Cho in real life. I'm not Asian, I don't even look slightly Asian, and I'll be that girl who has no friends sitting in a corner at a party. Attempting to have fun in my corner but failing, as I think it's kinda rude to bring a book to a party, and I have only one friend.
*slaps face*
Nope, I wouldn't even be AT a party, because I'm almost friendless. SUE ME.
– I also used to think Top was a CBer. And an annoying one at that.
– I've considered several times making another CBer.
– Thorn and Pinkie randomly popped up in my head and begged to be created, but Elsa and Blizzard were created on a whim.

MiceareniceParticipant~I used to think Top was a really cool CBer.
~I used to think OtR and Over the Rainbow were two different people! (OtR was pronouced 'otter', and in my mind she wore a purple hoodie that covered her face.)
~I (think) I know the most CBers in real life. I know six. (I can't tell you who they are, though, but you already know that I know Moonfrost. [She is my sister, after all.])
~I don't really have any CB friends…D: I feel a teensy bit lonely here.
{Can we post odd trivia about our real selves here, too?}

September Participant– Weirdly enough, I never went through the "Top is a CBer phase", because the first comment on my introductory thread was from Bluebird, and in the name and location field, it said Bluebird & Top of the tree!, and in the actual body of the post, it said, Top!
– I made my AE Cortana because I really wanted my CB name to be Cortana, but I had just changed it to September.
– Chester (my CAPTCHA) is actually one of my stuffed animals (you may have seen a picture of him before.) His real name is Harold, but I decided to name him Chester on the CB because he also looked like a cat who'd be named Chester.

DumbellParticipantWhat??
IDK where i amYou guys are (no offense) making me feel dumb. I'm a new CBer, i have no idea what CAPTCHA, AE, Hallia, and chester are. I dont really get this "top" thing. Is there any dif between AE and CAPTCHA? what's this thing in cnn reporter's comment about shipping? Someone feeling generous and helpful, PLEASE HELP!!!!
Captcha is the name for the code you have to type before submitting a comment. AE is Alter Ego, a character someone may create to express different personality characteristics. Top is what people say when they want to bring a thread from the back to a front page. Gotta go now. Someone else, please help with the rest.

DumbellParticipantThx admins!
You're welcome!

ScyllaParticipant"Shipping" is what it's called when you think two book characters (or any type of characters, for that matter) are/should be in some kind of relationship.
Many people personify their CAPTCHAs. For example, mine is Eo-Lahallia (known as Hallia). A CAPTCHAE or AETCHA is ½ AE and ½ CAPTCHA. I started that. So if you ever hear someone referring to something saying a strange sequence of four letters, you'll know it's a CAPTCHA.

Daisy, @DumbellParticipantshipping is when you support a crush. Like, Harry Potter and Ginny. If you ship them, you would combine the names like this: Hanny. Ok, that wasn't great, but there you go. 🙂

TOPParticipant-
Esthelle (Es-thel-ayParticipantAnonymous
Rivendell (I wish) ;)I'm not sure why I'm doing this, but–
. I first posted using my real age. (This is the most entrancing of facts, I know.)
. I used to be significantly more timid when I first joined. (Naturally– most of us are.)
. I have made 2 attempts to foster a Tolkienian Thread, but it never makes it. (Hmmm, wonder why?)
. I secretly enjoy this sort of thread but am rather distinguishedly bad at participating in them. (Very secretive of me, this comment, don't you think?)
. I'm currently relying on flimsy side-jabs in parentheses to add interest to my ground-breaking revelations. (What? You noticed?)
. I really should give it up now. (… can't think of an applicable side-note for this one…)
. But I won't! (Bananas! Tortoise-shell! Geniosity! Hobbitses! Curli-cues! Girl-with-a-Pearl-earring!)
. I'm done now. (Really?)
.I'm back!! (No, you're not.)
.Very well. (Getting off now)
.Just one minute… (So you're holding nonsense conversations with yourself, now? Click out before you humiliate us–you. Self. Whatever.)
.As you say. (Why are you still talking to me?!?!?!?)
