Hi! Just a little note to say, "I'm still alive!" Just been busy lately, so I deeply apologize for any worrying I caused. Those of you interested in the story I never wrote, I regret to inform you that I'll not be writing it. Why not? Because I'm starting over. Whole new cast of characters for me. I'd like to keep what I did before as a learning experience, but it shan't hold me back. I've grown a little (as one does) since last time, so I can make bigger, better, more coherent stories with bright, unique characters. So, leaving the past in the past, I just thought I'd let everyone know they can expect me to rejoin the community, and I hope there are no hard feelings.
Yours (again), Doctor Pony
(I should do something about that unfortunate name.)

"This was a triumph. I'm making a note here: HUGE SUCCESS!"? Hehe. Well, I'm glad you're back with more and better, I don't think people would have a reason to have hard feelings. Also, in order to change your nickname, you'll have to PM Karbo.

Hey guys. I have some sad, disturbing, and unfortunate news to share. I will wait until tomorrow to make a post here, as I don't have all the facts just yet. (or what can even be called facts). For those wondering, yes, physically i'm ok. I'm busy with the exams I have tomorrow, but that;s not the reson for the post. I'll tell you all tomrooow when I'm emotionally ready to tell you guys. (and not making a seperate thread beacuse I get flack for it)

Hi everyone... Today I know the full scope of what actually happened... And let me tell you this... NEVER TRUST ANYONE!
I do not currently posses the emotional capacity to say what happened at this time, but basically, I was a friends to Female Judas!
My so called "friends", ones I have known for 2 years and always ate lunch with at college, betrayed me last week into this week. My best friend in the group had asked for a certian type of information on stuff that we both are into (Paranormal). Well, she went and blabbed it to my "friends" and then THE ENTIRE FUCKING CAMPUS! I'm shunned, ignored, spat at, cussed at, called insane and a freak, a monster.
I am living a fucking nightmare! This was the semester I wanted to make new friends and be social, instead, I am finding myself in the middle of a crisis in which I am borderline being arrested (Had I not been friends with the man who runs these things, I might be sitting in a jail cell now). My academic career hangs in the balance of what happens!
I'm scared. When I found out the truth today, I cried. This is so wrong. If you have a problem with someone, GO TO THEIR FACE AND HAVE THE BALLS TO TELL THEM! Rumors only cause harm. I don't even know if the story is true. There is still a possibility of a malicious outside source being involved.
But bottom line, as long as I stay in the lines and have no contact with my former friends (Which I already did voluntarily) I should be fine. As the basis behind it all is a misunderstanding, it shouldn't come to legal terms.
Please whoever reads this, please pray for me. I really wish this Nightmare would end. That I could pinch myself and find it was all a dream, to go to lunch with my friends... Sadly, that's a fantasy that will never happen.
If you want to talk to me privately, please send me a note at http://dragon808tr.deviantart.com/ as my PM for the site is overfilled. (And notes on DA just work better)
Thanks for reading.

I don't get it. What does it mean?
Anyone know some good study tips/motivation? Whenever I try to do something, my brain avoids it like the plauge. So I end up talking to people or playing games or watching youtube and doing little to no work. I have a few hours left in my 5 day thanksgiving break and did nothing!
Also, how was everyone's Thanksgiving? Mine was kinda basic, my grandma and uncle came over and we had dinner.

Holy crap, I'm finally back. So...where have I been? Simply put, I've been in fracking hell and back. Seriously, this semester has been NOTHING but pain and trouble for my entire family. Where do I start? -_- I know:
First, at the beginning of the semester, my sister fell into a school related depression bad enough that she wanted to commit suicide and started cutting herself, again. This was all due to a very horrible experience with a teacher and lasted through most of September. Luckily we got her help, dealt with the teacher, and now everything is fine with that. It did throw our entire family for a huge loop though as we tried to deal with my sister, the teacher, and the school.
Then, two weeks after that in October, my grandfather had a bad enough fall to break two ribs. If that wasn't bad enough, the man had a few surgeries for some major heart problems. Yay. -_-
November was spent getting ready for thanksgiving by decorating and cooking, then finding out my dad is deploying somewhere after christmas. Only an 8 month deployment this time, which is great news! Not sure where he's going yet though. =/ It put a slight damper on things.
And then skip ahead about a week after thanksgiving. Apparently we forgot to winterize our outside pipes, so low and behold a pipe burst in our main storage area. Water got EVERYWHERE, and seeped under the walls, soaking my little brother's closet. We then spent our time drying things out, and putting things back. Luckily, even though the burst was bad, we only lost one puzzle and the board to Chutes and Ladders. Seriously, always put your things in plastic bags. Even board games that are in a box. Do it. It saves things.
So yeah, that's been my semester, along with learning Calculus, which has been royally kicking my ass. @_@ I'm back now though.

Sorry I haven't been answering anyone through messages or anything of the like, but right now, I'm not saying i'm going through a rough time, (because i'm not honestly) But i would say that i'm going through a time of deep self reflection and thought, This leaves for some things for me to think of notable distractions. This place, however much i love the theme and the community that helps me out through the years is one of them. I'm not saying I'm leaving but i'm still on a hiatus to further think for myself with my pursuits in irl. That being said I might revoke my moderatorship after i'm done because I haven't been the most effective to put the position in it's intended use so I feel like. But then I might not so there's no real guarantees on that. Thank you for sending me messages though (you people know who you are) in worrying about me. I'm just a lot displacement at the moment of how I react or what I should do, This should take a few more weeks to a month before i want to make a return on a good note. So please just wait a little longer. I love you all and will make a return soon to help, hopefully with productivity again.

I might be absent this entire summer, since I am jobless as of yet and internet connection is tricky at home, if we have internet at home...

So, I was searching up "Metal Adventure songs" Into youtube since it was recommended that Symphonic metal is best to concentrate. And I found some EPIC music! It's just divine and gives you the feel of being on an adventure (Or Felarya!) I'm not going to bother to post individual songs, as I fall in love with each, but I will post the channel! have fun!

For anyone who doesn't know, I've been in the process of applying for a job at a call center not to far from home. They train, give good benefits, work with their employees for scheduling and promote actively from within. I formally accepted position this morning, and training starts in two weeks. Hooray for me! Wish me luck!

I'm sure no one cares, but incase you havent noticed, I'm going to be on a lot less. I just feel that there is no point to me even posting ideas anymore, as they get shot down immediately, even when they are quite valid. (Like seriously, isn't it time we did more on Negav daily life and entertainment?)
Another reason I'm going to be on less is that it just seems that the site is dead. Almost no new content is ever posted. Not even roleplays!
I'm not quitting of course, I just dont see a reason to be on if literally no one cares! I mean, nothing new happens, I come up with a good idea for a thread, and it gets ripped to shreds within a day! Like seriously, who gave standard members Karbo's powers of canon? I see no reason as to why Negav families wouldn't have TV's or something similar! Sure, its pre industrial, but there is also futuristic tech, and besides lets not forget, Anna fixed one (That crisis then ate) so that TV and signal had to come from somewhere?
Anyway, I'm not leaving, i'm just going until something interesting happens.

This is not really the place, but since you already mentioned it, let me say that the thread itself "Felarya Entertainment", is perfectly fine and certainly something that should be developed more. What people didn't like and argued against was your TV-lookalike idea. After the first post, your only counter-arguments were one-liners basically saying "why not?". Stop a moment and think about the resources, time and manpower needed to create both the infrastructure and the regular programs that will be emitted, then consider that Negav is a single city with a few hundred thousand inhabitants that live mostly day-to-day in order to survive. Also, you are the one who has to convince people of "why yes" an idea is cool and fits Felarya, and not the other way round.
Can't say anything about the lack of activity, though, but it's not unheard of during summer.
No one gave anyone powers over canon. But people can still tell you it doesn't fit with the setting. And you could believe them and try to adapt your idea, or ignore them and try to have it your way, your choice.
In any case, see you around, and I hope you'll be back when things get a bit more active later on.
i'm taking a bit of a hiatus from the forum for a while. Likely for a year. No real reason why. I'm just really gonna be busy these next few months. If you need me, send me a personal message.

Hey guys! My mom made it through the surgery alright! My sister just texted me to tell me she's in recovery and will be home soon! I'm so happy! Now comes the hard part. I must stay up for two weeks without much sleep at all. Probably none but I feel energized right now!! Thank you all who prayed or even thought good thoughts about my mom.
