I love him, I like how he's in no way offensive and his posts are always un biased and well thought out.

He could teach a class on sexism at Harvard if he put his mind to it.

An absolute inspiration.

There are a couple of members who have had the most impact on me. I won't name them but they helped me through a really ****ty time last year and were just there. Hopefully they know who they are and how grateful I am to them...:love:

There are other people who I really enjoy seeing around the forum and make me laugh - Loungers etc.

The weaves have enlightened my musical tastes

others have had other impacts

For me, The Mockinator, he has been my mate on here since I joined, he was the first person to message me and welcome me to the forum, he was my first friend on here.

We have always got on brilliantly ever since and so for me he is the one who has had the most impact on me all through.

Of course there are others who have really won my affection too and without listing all of them, I am sure they know who they are really without me saying so.

You need better influences then :hehe:

Listening to Khia has helped me exit a dark phase in my life

Glenn's still bitter that he was ousted out of the weaves :hehe:

Zee is practically a walking book on "what not to do" so as to avoid disaster, so him.

Myself and my Linda emotes have clearly impacted you all

Gonna try and do this relatively chronologically...

First of all, lily. My first real TiBB friend and we're still friends almost 9 years later; I've known her since I was 13 years old :o she stuck up for me when certain forum members who no longer use TiBB were picking on me and she was one of the few people to really engage with me on here because while I was only 13 years old (so one of the youngest members on the forum) I was quite mature for my age and preferred speaking to older people... but most older members wouldn't have anything to do with me because they felt weird about speaking to a 13 year old I guess... the forum was a very different place back then, most people were much older, so I was a bit of an oddity...

Then you have the likes of Princess, Corkie, Sol, Lance, Ella, Legend etc who were all good fun. Loved speaking to the likes of Lauren, GiRTh, InTheHood, Mrluvaluva, CharlotteSometimes, Fangz...

I stopped using TiBB for a while because the bullying got a bit much and then lily was banned for a long time so I felt like there wasn't really anyone I could talk to anymore... but eventually I came back, Linda was eventually allowed back too... but even then I felt that I no longer knew who was on the forum and nobody really wanted to speak to me, there was a whole new generation of users who had signed up and had taken over the chat threads and it was very hard to befriend anyone... but ~that all changed~ when dupin ran an X Factor game and I asked to be involved and as a result befriended Shaun, Darenn and Billy who had all been picked to be involved in the game too... although Billy disappeared for long periods of time and Darenn eventually stopped using the forum too, Shaun and I became really good friends. Then he became friends with a group of users that included people who had been bullying me a couple of years beforehand and I didn't want anything to do with it; but eventually relented and became friends with his new friends and made amends with people who had been nasty to me in the past... so around this time I made all sorts of new friends like LemonJam, Dezzy, Chewy, Jen, MarkWaldorf, Rory, MrGaryy, Ross, Hugo, DamonJ etc... Linda became part of the group of friends too :amazed: so that sealed the deal for me really. Then those people started dropping off and Ross said something really idiotic that really wound me up so I didn't want to speak to anybody for a while but yeah, loads of people stopped using the forum and eventually just settled on the forum as I am now...

So to move to current times, I really just love TiBB as it is now. So much love for chat thread folks like HD, Kate, Glenn, Jake, Ammi, Livia, Kizzy, Ninastar, Lee, Marc, Vicky, Niamh, Cuda, Reece, GypsyGoth, MeMyselfandI, Jordan, Saph, Salman, Annie, Lucas, Novo, Nathan, Drew, Josy... the list goes on and on and I don't think I could ever list everyone because I'd no doubt forget someone and I hate that :laugh: so just a lot of love to everyone on here, really! :love:

Zee :hug:

KKK

The tl;dr version is I'd like to thank Linda (lily) for convincing me to stick around the first time, Shaun the second time and everyone who's here now for the third time :D
