SHOWER YOUR FRIENDS WITH LOVE AND KISSES - Compliments thread

BY THE WAY YOU CAN JUST SAY THANKS WITHOUT LIKE WRITING A NOVEL OR SOMETHING I DON'T WANT PEOPLE TO FEEL PRESSURED TO do something equally as elaborate or like whatever just to accept their compliment.

E: YOU DESERVE COMPLIMENTS ACCEPT THEM!

i don't know much about you ed but i think you're cool and your art is really cute and i like how you draw lots of cute slightly chubby people? like something about the art style is just super adorable to me
also your old forumventures on mspa were some of the ones that first got me into the whole forum adventure storytelling style so thats good too!!!

i would like to personally, and in a heartfelt manner, compliment ed on the use of his teeth in mechanically digesting matter. I would further like to flatter ed on the use of his esophagus in peristalsis and his stomach acids in the breaking down of proteins to be absorbed in his blood plasma.

I've been really busy but i love y'all

Dalm, it really makes me happy when people describe why they like my art! It's super great and it makes my day just by thinking about it. WOW THANKS.

AND THANKS FOR REMINDING ME

ABOUT MY BODYLY FUNCTIONS

AND THANKING ME

This compliment is for one Sai, who has a very clever short-hand! I enjoyed solving this post; thank you for your creativity.

Schazer have I mentioned I love your voice? It's so distinct and I have never heard a voice like it.

I have come here to say THAT I DESPISSSE YOU ALL AND THAT THE WORLD SHALL BURN WITH A FLAME THAT SHALL LAST AS LONG AS MY HATRED, WHICH IS ETERNITY. LONG AFTER THE HEAT DEATH OF THE UNIVERSE. THERE WILL STILL BE THAT ONE FLICKER, THAT UNFATHOMABLE LOATHING THAT I WILL HAVE FOR YOU. EAGLE-TIME. WILL YOU BE MY VALENTINE.

Yo.

Right now, I'd like to thank Reyweld and Chwoka for being two of the raddest, funniest dudes around.

Schazer and Slorange are also two of the most intelligent and creative people I've had the privilege to meet in this wild wild world.

Fogel has to be one of the most productive nerds I've ever seen, and he also deserves praise for that.

Y'all are generally incredibly inspiring people, and this community is probably one of the main reasons why I'm as artistically inclined as I am. So I guess I just wanna say thanks for all that.

*blush* S-senpai~

I'm so embarrassed, but in a positive way

I'm happy the community has influenced you so positively! I feel the same way

aw damn didn't expect to get called out like that!

now i gotta change up my whole game

schazer is cool, and good

I'd like to thank Myeth for being such a wonderfully silly, impossibly positive bundle of exuberance. I really don't know how he does it. Everything he says is so packed with personality and optimism, and it's such a contrast to my generally dour and lethargic real-life personality.

He almost never fails to make me smile.

Because we share a similar type of humor, I can always bounce nonsense or jokes off of him and expect him to understand. And he'll return something equally nonsensical, but that I never would have come up with or expected in response.

He's a wonderfully strange, wonderfully happy, wonderful person and he cheers me up a lot.

I just want to compliment this community in a whole. I guess. It's a great place with so many creative people! And that inspires me to try to be creative too.

I just noticed that Justice Watch called me a productive nerd two years ago and dang I feel awkward about only commenting on that now.

But thanks, I appreciate that people like the things I do, or even just like the fact that I put a lot of work into them even if they're too intimidated by my hundred-page text adventure to actually read it.

And I appreciate the people here and the things they do, however much they take their time in getting the things done. As long as you enjoy what you're making, that's cool by me, even if I don't necessarily find your work to be my kind of thing.

IN RESPONSE TO A52 being REAL GOODB

HI thank u for being welcoming when i first crash landed on this website, and also for sending me memes i like that and i like how ur a supportive friend who's real smart TYSM!!!! ♡♡♡♡☆

that is very cute

Good thread! Good good thread!

Schazer, you are so inspiring as a hobbyist and as a person. You are mature and super cool and a really good role model (even if you might deny it). Thanks for being great!

A thread on one of the trans reddits meandered into talking about trans/nb teachers, and it made think about how much I love/appreciate/am proud of Schazer and Sunspider.

(note: I originally wrote this in third person ("they"/"she") but then decided to change it to second person ("you") at the last minute so some of the tenses may be a bit messed up)

Schazer:

• I'm really proud of you/happy for you for getting a good job as a teacher in New Zealand. You sound like they would be a really great teacher! It's really cool how much stuff it sounds like you've done for LGBTQ people at your school, and also I vaguely remember something about an indigenous studies program which is also wonderful!
  
  
• Your enthusiasm for birds and bugs is wonderful and adorable and infectious and I hope you share it with your students
  
  
• You're... really cute??? Seriously. In all the pictures I've seen of you, you NOT ONLY have impeccable taste in brightly-colored fashion (that really matches well with your interests in birds and bugs usually) but also a heartwarming smile and I think I might be a little gay for you.
  

Sunspider:

• It sounds like you don't do this anymore or maybe it was just a one-time thing, but you talked before about teaching middle-school kids about game design and narratives and different ways of telling stories. That's really cool and I wish I had been taught that in middle school! Your general interest in storytelling is really good, and I super enjoy the conversations had on discord about it.
  
  
• Speaking of game design, you're super talented. You're a great writer and a great artist and a great musician, and even if you deny your skills at programming, there's no denying that you gets more done in that aspect than I ever do. It's super impressive.
  
  
• I really look up to you, and I think a lot of other people do. It amazes me how much care you pour into this community. I sometimes think of you as a kind of server-wide mentor and mom. Your advice, whether artistic or personal, is always helpful and appreciated.
  
  
• More specifically, I really appreciate all you've done for me this past year, as I've struggled with gender identity issues and such. You've been so, so helpful, and so kind, even and especially when I felt I didn't deserve it, even when I said some kind of nasty things because of how upset I was. I cannot thank you enough.

also i love myeth a lot and he makes really silly and great art and he makes me happy

i'd like to give a shout-out to kaynato for being:

• really smart and helpful
  
• really cute and pretty
  
• honestly an inspiration to me in multiple ways
