I enjoy the Endless Forest because it's my people. This isn't some tribal-marking wolf community, or some high-school modern vampire community, but a community about deer, my favorite animal. It's a community of people who enjoy doing artwork, writing, roleplaying, and actually playing as a deer in a forest.

If I had never found the Endless Forest, I really don't know what I would be like. I probably would have still been hooked on first-person shooter games and stuff like that. I probably would not have had the same views on environmentalism as I do now. I might not have even liked deer at all.

Look, I know this is going to come off as some kind of pompous speech, but it's really not. It's coming from the heart - I don't want to lose the Endless Forest. I don't want this to share the same fate as Impressive Title, where the creators got so fed up with all the hacking, bickering, and drama that they shut it down. There is no other community like this, I have found nowhere else where a 24-year old guy can write stories, enjoy artwork, and play a game where I am a deer.

Where I live, the kind of person I am is looked down upon. I'm supposed to be a man that enjoys NASCAR, killing deer, and staring at women. But I'm not, that isn't me. This is where I belong.

So please guys, the fighting and bickering needs to stop. It's like watching two family members argue, one may be right and one may be wrong but you still love them both equally. I understand that we as human beings don't always agree on things, but does that mean we have to wage war against each other about it?
