It looks like I am the only true fan left which is incredibly sad. It's a shame that Tumblr is a horrid place. Ouch... a little harsh to say you're the only true fan left. I follow stuff the best I can. I just don't have all the time I used to have like when I was 15. To be honest, a lot of the original fans have aged up and I know we have new parents on the websites, as well as people caught up in study abroad or university or even a new career. Life catches up sometimes. I disagree that tumblr is a horrid place. There's a ton of crappy things about it (generally speaking) or fans that I'm not too keen on, but I think that any kind of open website that allows members to be from any part of the world or any age group run the risk of letting you encounter gobs of people who are just not your cup of tea. I'd be lying if I said I ~*loved*~ every member or blog page on Tumblr. But the beauty of that which I maybe don't have accessible to me on a website like DH is that I can block them and/or tags and not look at the stuff I don't want to look at, like hate on Mako or anti-Zutara stuff, etc. Tumblr has a lot of creative minds posting fan works such as music mixes, fan art, fanfiction, or even posting theories and exchanging ideas! Oh goodness I feel like an old parent now. Getting there anyway. Time is dwindling away so quickly.

This is very true. I have been a member here for along time. (I switched accounts because of embarrassment.) I am 23 years old now. I just married my wonderful wife and I am getting close to graduating from college. It is so strange to think how much everyone has grown and how the Avatar series has grown with us. I think I will forever be thankful to this community. I worked out my angsty teenage years here. I made all sorts of friends I still think fondly of even if we don't talk anymore. I'll keep hanging out here as long as I can but just because we don't post doesn't mean we don't appreciate the forum or the show.

CK, is that you? I hope you're doing better. Aww, Mari, Janessa's adorable! Such a cute costume. Welcome back, Nashk, and congrats on the wedding! Best of luck with college too.
