Now, since I utterly despise drama, I'll try to put this a flatly-yet-not-rudely as possible: Face it.. WCC's glory days are slowly coming to end. It's been like a person, almost. WCC started off as a small child with a humble beginning, confused and entangled in a small, befuddled grouping of members, who had aimlessly been surfing the web for a place to satisfy their Warriors obsession.
Then, WCC gradually entered it's teen years-- An exciting string of events and encounters in which came with it's own issues and triumphs. Though it was difficult to expand and manage, the youth WCC somehow managed to push through.
Finally, after hard work and struggles, our beloved website grew into an adult-- It reached it's "golden age". There was a steady balance of members, and the longer you stuck with this place, the more tight-knit you became to this community of.. Oddities.
And then, things began to falter and slowly decline. People were fighting and leaving, and generally, the interest rate lowered in many of the older members, either because they were nostalgic of the past times this site had, or the plain fact that things were simply gettin to be uninteresting and bland. Nothing was going on.. It was like the site had been mortally wounded, and was slowly reaching poorer levels of health.
A small spark of hope was injected when a reboot was in planning. People started to flock back, and forums started to come alive with living topics once more.
For a while, all seemed hopeful-- The gaping wound in our website was in a healing state..
At least, that's what I thought.
Maybe a coupes weeks after the reboot or so, a realization dawned on me.. That this fighting sense to prop up the wounded limb on WCC was not enough. It would never be enough.
I came here a curious and willing kid, and I've beared with this place for almost two years. I made friends here, but let's not get sappy.. I just don't see anything lively about here anymore; just a couple of overly-peppy newbies and some moping old-timers, still attempting to cling to what's left of this site.
We tried too hard to get WCC going again, and ended up reopening the cut. People grow older and have less time and will to participate here, so we are faced with this untimely end to our hours spent on Warriors forums (well, most of us, anyhow).
I, for one, as of the day I joined this place, will not be returning. Why? I have a life now.. I'm in high school, I have a job.. I think you understand.
I'm sorry to ThunderClan, seeing as I was elected deputy, an I'm sorry to my friends, but it's time I left once and for all.
Bless your faces,
Dead.
