I've officially been a part of the forest for 5 years (and 6 days) and I wanted to thank you all for being one of the most welcoming, thoughtful, and kind communities I've ever been a part of. You are all so talented and amazing and I'm grateful to be a part of this little corner of the internet.
So thank you, and happy five years in the forest to me.

I just scrolled through all the screenshots J!n posted, and wanted to say, in addition to really enjoying The Forest environment in and of itself, there's an amazing collection work here, like, the whole ripple effect of this place, created by all of you - all the imagery and writing - thank you - it's all pretty remarkable, as is the pervasive kindness

(so, capiteux can't type cuz of the whole hoof situation, but here goes ... )

capiteux is actually an antelope, but oblivious about it. and oblivious to all those kinds of divisions between ruminants that are based on size, or appearance, or ? (don't we all have the same four stomachs? aren't the very best of us all bovine anyway?)

to capiteux, The Forest is heavenly, because of its very purposeful exclusion of all the meaningless, excessive audible and visual NOISE that dominates other environments (and life, yes? (that's all so normalized now)).

everywhere else lacks mystery, imagination, artistry, depth.

for capiteux, dancing ! is best. but second best: just being still. resting. quiet.

capiteux invited a good friend to The Forest - a like-minded but much more tech-savvy goat named ruminane - but ruminane hasn't been able to get here yet. (while capiteux is blissfully unaware of divisions and distinctions between ruminants, ruminane is preoccupied with and distracted by them. (ruminane has always wanted to be ... I'm not sure ... ANYthing other than an ordinary goat.))

There I'll collect The Endless Forest themed pixel gifs, I drew.

(Is it possible to make a small table here? o_o)

hope everyone is well, it's nice having a computer that doesn't chug while i make epher hop around

i may not hang around long but it's nice background noise at least, even if i tab back every 40 seconds to see who is running around near me. it's also fun creeping on people on the map when i can, though honestly i can't see half of yall's toyhouse pages that are linked lol

glad to see this game is still around
