I don't know if all of you heard, but people are starting to lose interest in the site, and even Alex. She might be considering closing it, and personally I don't want that to happen.
Although some people might be starting to post less often, there are others who are still very active, and do not want this site to disappear.
So, I'm starting this thread, to show Alex how much some people care, and want to be able to continue posting, and roleplaying.
And if you one of those people, this is your chance. Post here, and speak, to keep First Life up, and going.

Don't close the site! Its the most active one I've been on, so far its one of the two on my list of ten role-play sites that is still going! We can't let the First Life die!
If it comes to worst, we should probably have a new site (carry-over) called 'The second life' ...as some other sites have done with version 1.0, and version 2.0, ect.

Yes! We can't let his site go! It's awesome! And don't quit Alex, your an awesome administrator!!
If we lose Alex it could change the whole site! And I don't think anyone wants to see it go!!!

Okay, I'm not so sure about the pitchforks.
But I know that I don't want to see this site go. Please, don't think like that, and change your mind Alex. We really care.

Alex,
I remember how enthusiastic you were when you first told me you were making a warriors role playing site. I was in awe when I first joined, it seemed so... so magical in some sense. This was the first site that I have been apart of that I role played in. I've learned so much from the people around me, made great friends and without the First Life none of that would of ever happened. The site would be nothing without you. And I'm not sure what I would do if it closed down. (Probably not procrastinate so much with everything... but still.) Oh, and think of it this way, I would be reading more Wikipedia plot summaries if there was no First Life.
I know I still love the site. I haven't lost interest, and Crowy and Falco's two counter plots will help it get a bit more interesting for everyone.
Please, please don't do this. (Or Mirage and I will have to start plotting about that 'Second Life' thing. And I would eventually pull you in because you know how annoying I can be.)
~Charbar

In only ONE word... NO!!!!!!!
Alex, before I came here I was addicted to Marapets. And on there I received a PM about a Warriors RP club from someone who noticed my addiction to the series. That person turned out to be one of my best friends there. Well, after a few months the club started to lose interest. RP posts went from two paragraphs at least, to only a few sentences. After a while RP died completely. Now it's just a memorial, kept alive from the friends we made there. But when it died, I decided to look for another place. Thus, Alex, I found TFL. Though I don't exactly post here that often- mostly due to life reasons, or writer's block -I think I'll stay for a long while. But if the site closes, it'll just become a memorial. And honestly, I'd hate to see it happen. Because when I came here, I had no idea what I might do. I was a newbie, and I wasn't used to the site. I literally got lost in the forums, lol. But whenever I needed help, the members here were amazing. Charbles, Chacha, Tyler, and just about everyone else here have become close friends of mine- even if we may live on complete opposite sides of the world, or if we're only a few cities away. But seriously, if TFL closes/dies/whatever might happen to it... I just don't know what might happen. I mean, seriously. Most of my friends are from RP sites. Most of them are from here. And without The First Life, I never would have met such an awesome admin. ~*~River~*~

I can agree with Riv on that.
Before I joined, I spent hours and ays looking for Warriors RP sites, I nearly gave up, that was until I saw this website, from the number of posts i saw, I knew i would love this site. I was right. I met new friends. had an awesome time. I wouldn't give it up for the world. This site is now like a part of my life.I could always count on this site to cheer me up when I'm down, experiance new things, and more.. we don't want this place to go, EVER.

NOOOO!!!
Don't close this site!!!
Just because a few people are leaving, it doesn't mean that we should close The First Life!
I know, and admit, that I'm being a weenie on here. I think it's normal that around this time of year for people to go a little inactive, since around now school is starting.
BUT!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!DONTCLOSETFL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

they're right, as we go up a grade, we might have less time to do what we want to do. so we're busy. its not reason to close down on us.

Yeah, and for awhile the site was doing REALLY good, like, in the middle of summer, and we were all posting, and were really active, but now, that we're getting busy, we have less time to post, and it makes us seem inactive, but we are NOT losing interest. This is the best roleplay site I've ever been on, and I DO NOT want it to disappear.

Last year was the hardest school year of my entire life (no kidding, like two hours of homework every night >.<) but I think this one might be easier (random thought). But, we should all try to log on for just a couple minutes a day if we can, post one post. From each of us, that's keeping the site alive. Homework isn't THAT time consuming, unless you are an extreme procrastinator, then I say DO YOUR HOMEWORK WHEN YOU GET HOME SO YOU CAN COME AND PLAY WITH US!
On another note..... Happy birthday Swimmy! ♥

You're welcome.
I dunno, you'd have to ask her...

Post by Swimfast on Aug 15, 2009 17:35:20 GMT -5
Ok.
Do you think this post will help make her want to keep the site?

Post by Charbarboo on Aug 15, 2009 20:15:56 GMT -5
Depends on her point of view.... Though, she doesn't change her mind too easily, if I know her. (Unless of course you provide some good, strong proof, of course.)
