    I wouldn't really call this an "introduction" moreso just a shoutout to all my friends I haven't talked to or seen in a while. However, I decided to put it here cause, well, if you don't know me, you'll learn a thing or two ^-^

    Guys, for those who remember me, I just want to say I am TERRIBLY sorry for not talking a lot. When drama got the best of me, I just up and left. I really love the individual people on here, but sometimes not all of em can get along in the same chat room. ^-^' Furthermore, you guys should know my skype. I'm always there and would love to see you guys popping up in my notifications. You all still have a place in my life that I can't replace with any other memory.

    I have been going through chests of books with messages from awesome people Art (I hope it's you Artsie D: ), leadermelody , Lemonade , and just so many more that I can't remember the names of even to save my soul... DX (Please forgive me, it's like 12 in the morning) But honestly, I can't thank you enough. The Nostalgia of going back through those memories have just given me one of the greatest feelings in the world. All those kind words said what feels like to be so far long ago. Thank you

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Now, for those of you who don't know my. Buckle up for the ride of your life! (Lol, not really, but made you hyped right? :p ) I come from a rock in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. The one that everyone wants to go to. Hawai'i. And what's not great about here is that I have only a certain amount of people I can really meet. So... I come to games.

    I came to skyblock a few years ago after a friend wanted to build an island as a challenge. So, I accepted and we ended up building one of the most "social" islands I have ever seen. And by that, I mean we had like 5 houses. XD I started to sell items to make more in-game money (grass) and our island started to flourish.

    I started to meet new people throughout my time on the server and, soon enough, I was gifted the donor 10 rank. That was probably the MOST attention I ever got on the server at the time. I made friends with some donors and they were congratulating me and my non-ranked friend got upgraded as well and we were congratulating each other. My popularity in chat skyrocketed, and I got noticed by many people I wanted to talk to.

    Then, I got griefed. Yes, it's a small detail, but let me explain.

    That was the first time I ever talked to mods throughout my time of playing. My island was WRECKED from top to bottom with nothing left to salvage. It was a mess. But they had this "turning back the damage" plugin which was pretty great. I didn't get my chest items back, but hey... a small grassland patch with about a stack coming back to life was pretty great already. Can't have it all :p

    So then, I figured I should try for mod, as I was getting bored myself and would love to help people out with similar issues. So I applied and, after a bit of learning and helping, got HUNDREDS of responses on my application. Friends, new players, old unranked players, and now some of the mods were on my side. I was so set! But it never happened. Forever lost in the sea of other applications under 50 replies :c

    Oh well, some turned out to be great mods anyway. Moving on

    There was some drama between a lot of people. People I considered great friends and others I just kinda wanted to /mute for my time being there. When I started to be dragged in is when I called a quits. It was wrecking my emotions as what I thought were good people started to "go to war" with each other. Plus, my girlfriend at the time broke up with me, so that didn't have great timing either. In the end, I left for many reasons, but those are the two VERY basic.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    I post this not as a means to single anyone out or to complain or anything. But as to say thanks. Thanks to the many months and years of experiences, laughs, and so much more. I would love to be here more, but I just can't. I will totally share my skype and keep up to date on you guys ^-^ It'd be a true honor.

    However, until that day, I will wait. As I always say:

    A hui hou, malama pono (Until we meet again, take care)

    ~ Josh

    Oh gosh, handwriting papers is harsh. Not really cause it's harder, it's just that I have a snail's pace when writing XD
