Hi, Moony.
It's nice of you to post in this thread, even though you probably don't know Russian.

I've only lurked long enough here on Ponychan in the last five months or so, did not contribute anything of real value (and made only about two dozen posts in total anyway), but I fell absolutely obliged to thank you guys.

I first got here probably 1-1,5 years ago, but it was too fast for me (I prefer smaller, slower AIBs) and... well, English being far from my first language it was quite challenging just to read a thread in reasonable amounts of time, let alone to try and participate.

When I finally got to reading threads in /arch/ in earnest several months ago, I was astonished by how different people here are. Different in a good way, and yet still familiar, still bearing more than a passing resemblance to the anonymous. In a "best of both worlds" kind of way.
Sure, things changed a lot since when those threads in /arch/ were being made, but the spirit is alive and well. I can tell you this for a fact, being an outside observer.
I could not continue lurking in /pony/ (mostly) during the last month, only visited a few times, so forgive me if I'm a bit out of touch with the latest stuff.

Sorry, getting to the point now.
Thanks to both the show _AND_ you I become a happier, calmer and... I guess more light-hearted individual. I've seen someone I can both relate to and look up to. And this is coming from a 29 year old, long-time AIB dweller.
I hoped to become a better person in regards to treating others (insular, cynical, cold-hearted *channer, remember?), but it turned out to be a more difficult task. At least you guys helped me to see the problem and to try and move in the right direction.
Thank you, Ponychan, for everything. I really wish I could give something in return, beside a few silly posts. I hope I made someone's mood better once, at least.

Yeah, the tone. Due to certain circumstances I most probably won't be able to stay here for much longer. Thus I felt the need to write this while I still can. /int/ is fairly deserted so this wall of text won't bother many people. And scare away most of the rest.

Thanks again for everything.

...oh anon... thank you for sharing that with me. The world... can be such a different place, depending on where we look. It still ... makes me really wonder, sometimes, just how wonderful other people can really be.

It is hard to not be cynical, when things always seem so tough... work is tough, money is short, and life is stressful. Yet... there is a certain joy, just in seeing the joy of others... just in those elements of harmony that makes everything feel alright c:

i feel like... we all help each other, to be the best that we can be. c:
