The Big Reputation Milestone

So I just reached 100 reputation (it's still only prominent for some reason so I actually don't know what the next reputation step is), but I figured this was a good time to thank everyone I've encountered.

I joined June of last year, not necessarily around for as long as some people, but from the very first day I knew this was going to be my home. Over 11 months, I've made friends with so many amazing people here, and became immersed in possibly the best internet community I have ever seen. This might be the only website I've dedicated myself so fully to, never once leaving for more than a couple days.

It's felt amazing making forum posts and having discussions, making guides, and overall just contributing to the site, but it feels even better knowing that I'm respected for it. This is probably the most recognition I've ever achieved, even if it's a superficial thing...it just feels good knowing that other people respect me. Like, that personal happiness bestowed upon me with every +rep....it feels great. I never thought I'd have this much, for lack of a better word, influence in a community, to know that people appreciate what I have to say so much.

But just like with my blogs about being Editor and Veteran, this isn't just reviewing what milestone I achieve, it's about thanking the people who helped me get here. Like I said, I've made so many friends on this site, in smite, in league of legends, in real life...it's great. And I literally could not have gotten here without you. So my goal is to stay involved on this site for more than just months, I want to be here for years. I'm not going to leave, (sorry those who hate me ;D) smitefire means way too much to me.

So again, thank you everyone who helepd, and I really hope to keep it going, and I hope to make this my permanent home.

Have a great day everyone :)
