In the past, we could do what we wanted with our RPs, and we had fun even if the stories we wrote were simple. We could create characters from the top of our heads, and make them work even if they were simple. We could even have fun in RPGs, even if each one didn't last long. But right now, it's like we have to top our game and make our content professional, and if our content is even the slighest bit boring or cliche, we'll lose others' interest easily. That's why RPs and spin-offs often die by the way, and currently HoEC is at risk. The simple formula doesn't work anymore, and it's disappointing. Plus, I have a bad feeling that we're becoming more toxic as users, that we don't even treat each other like friends anymore...

If only IaLR could just be like its old self back in PvZ wiki before that STUPID decision to close down the RP branch... I understand. I wish we could still be like we were before the RP branch was closed. I feel that's a blow IaLR has still not recovered from.

I think part of the problem is how much the roleplaying team has been reduced. Before we had many more users rolepalying, so it didn't matter if the rolepalys were simple or not very interesting, because the sheer amount of users made it fun. Crazy things would happen, users would have their characters interact, etc. Nowadays there's less users, so now we have to rely on making better roleplays that'll keep us interested. Users have left. Rusty is no longer with us, and although I don't talk about it much, I sometimes fear other users will do the same as him and leave IaLR.

I want to apologize to everyone for how I acted yesterday. I was kind of grumpy due to a past argument I had with my siblings, and although I shouldn't have, I think I let my emotions from that incident show through this incident. I apologize, the reason of my grumpy attitude had nothing to do with any of you. I'll make sure to not let external forces influence my behavior on this wiki from here on. I guess I must have underestimated Chilly when he first suggested to bring more users. I thought it would bring more unneeded toxicity to the wiki, but really, I didn't see the bigger picture and now I realize how important it is that we need more users. I never realized how the number of users here actually affected our interest on IaLR, and now I do.

I don't blame you, we all have our bad days. Even I tend to act on impulse, like I did about that one earlier topic. One way or another, we'll get frustrated and others would probably know, so that's why I cannot promise that I would never act on impulse again. We all have our own triggers.

Yes, I still don't really enjoy my time here as much as I used to, but again I don't blame you. It's not the reason why I became less active, I still have my own school stuff to do. But even so I'm not giving up on this. Well, that is until I reach my adulthood.

Point is: I'm on board with having more users on this wiki. We can only hope that they won't be toxic.
