User blog:Corbierr/Happy New Years, everyone!

It's been one crazy, eventful year here. We've lost people, we've gained people. We've had laughs and we've had fights. We've had moments where I was ready to leave and moments where I fall for the wiki all over again.

It's been a year of fanfiction and a year of rants. A year of crackshipping, of membershipping, and family building. A year of fond and not-so-fond memories.

Last year ended on a note of drama and frustration, which continued into about...well...February. Early 2014. This year, most of our drama seemed to cease. That's not to say it still doesn't exist...but fights, bashing, banning, people picking sides and threatening to disable every single other week? No, I don't see it anymore. Maybe it's because we've gotten so much smaller, but hey, I like to see this as a sign that my optimism actually was true for once. We made it through, we're still dysfunctional, but hey, we're getting better, right?

I want to thank all the people who made this year into what it was. This was the year where I felt the best about the wiki. I didn't keep feeling the need to "save" this place from the drama. My relationships grew stronger, I wrote fanfiction, I won awards, I had more fun this year than the other two years here. You guys have made this year...well, memorable at the least.

Thanks for everything, and let's hope that 2015 will be even better. The wiki "golden era" may have passed, but we can still have a silver era, right?

Oh yeah and the first person who edits something on January 1st, even if they do it at say, 12:01 AM tonight, they are UOTW because I can. I will include posting as editing. So yeah, keep that in mind mwahaha...
