Well, as you can see, I disappeared for a while, but I never stopped reading each and every one of your comments.

And... during that time, things happened, in general, many “not so good” and good things happened.

However, one of the things that happened, on one website in particular, which starts with “Janitor” and ends with “Ai” (lol), was enough to brighten my days and nights.

And that incredible thing was: WE FINALLY HAVE 100 FRIENDS!

Seriously, I don't know how to thank you, I don't even think words are enough to express the affection I have for you.

Honestly, I don't know what love is, but it must be something close to what I feel for you.

Well, to start with the thanks, I'll begin by trying to describe my “love” for you (very embarrassing, I know, but what can you do...)

"Love, let me tell you how much I love you. It is estimated that there are about 200 sextillion stars in the observable universe, that is, 200 billion trillion. If, on every atom of every one of those stars, the word ‘Love’ were written, it would not amount to 1% of the love I feel for you, in this very millisecond."

(Wow... where have I heard that before?)

That said, now let's move on to some special thanks.

And the first goes to...

(Not that the order changes anything.)

Bibblebobmunks!

Seriously, I am grateful, very grateful, to have met this guy. He was one of the first, if not the first, to interact with me on one of my bots. Honestly, I don't know how he found me, but to this day, I am very fulfilled and happy to have met him.

If you're reading this, know this: I admire you very much, thank you for your kindness, I really do admire that in you. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart!

The second is...

Ushankadude!

Another one of the first friends I made on this site.

I also have no idea how he found me, among so many skilled creators, but his friendship was another great find.

Since I've known him, even though we're not very close, he's always been very kind in his comments, and he always asks what bots his followers would like to see.

But I'm also very grateful to have met him, along with my other friends, and I'm happy to see that it's not just me who is gaining recognition, but them too, and that makes me very happy. To see that we are growing together, helping each other.

The third is...

Drakoth!

Let's be honest, when I say he's an incredible person, we should all agree, seriously, he's one of the kindest people on this entire site. Every bot I go to, he's there, saying something extremely nice, encouraging or showing his appreciation for the work of others.

Seriously, he is an example, one of the good ones, of how everyone should be; kind, gentle people who care about others, a true gentleman.

Thank you, Drakoth, your kind words have helped me, just as they have helped many others. Know that “you are full of kindness.”

And we are full of hope that more people like you will appear in our lives.

I want to make it clear that the people mentioned above are not better than anyone else, I just mentioned them because they are the ones I am “closest” to, the ones I have known for a little longer.

And if you are sad that you were not mentioned, don't worry, this is just one of several thank yous I intend to give during my journey on this site!

Well, moving on, let's talk about my inspirations that encouraged me and helped me get to where I am today.

My two absolute inspirations were and are:

‘47’

Segravy

Seriously, I'll talk about each one in detail below, but I have a genuine question for you.

Explain to me, what is it like to be a genius? What is it like to have such a creative mind and talent that seems to have been shaped by tireless wars against an enemy that cannot be defeated?

You two... You are the pinnacle, the physical and material limit of how words can be organized to form beautiful things... Seriously, one day, I want to be able to understand, write, and do incredible things, even if it's only 10% of what you do.

I am happy to consider you both my eternal teachers, since I want to follow in your brave footsteps, leading with such confidence that you make us think that being a leader is an easy task.

'47'

I know I'm not someone worthy of comparing myself to you, but know that my work is very inspired by yours, not to mention that it was while talking to one of your bots that I finally decided to start my own.

Honestly, I would like to thank you, as ridiculous as it may be, I really admire your bots.

They say that writers tend to put a little bit of themselves into everything they write. I don't know if that applies to you, but if it does, I can say with certainty, “You are incredible and deserve all the best.”

Segravy

Now that I have a little more repertoire to draw from, I can say without fear that YOU are skilled, not in a simple way, as they say, “born with the gift of writing.” No, you dedicated yourself to it, you fought to achieve this unique skill you have, and I'll say more, you mastered it with a grace that borders on divinity (call me exaggerated if you want, I say this fully aware of my words).

Seriously, I hope one day to reach the light you have touched, I hope one day to have enough strength to fight, the way you fought.

That said, thank you, your daily struggle is the inspiration I was looking for to face mine.

Well, although I don't think it was enough, that was my thank you (for 100 followers).

Now, since I'm already writing this, I'm going to introduce/talk about some creators that you should check out (if you don't already follow them).

They are:

whootytoo

I've been following this creator for some time, but due to my completely questionable memory, I always forget to mention him. He creates VERY good male bots, most of them with military themes. Honestly, I like them a lot, so I think you'll like them too.

Dave...

I've already given some details about him in my profile.

yBlackWz

I've also talked about the incredible work of this incredible friend of mine.

Kiko...

I also discovered this creator recently, about two weeks ago, and honestly, he is VERY promising, not to mention that his bots are so well made that I've spent hours interacting with them over the last few weeks. I don't have a single criticism, I mean... his name is a hilarious pun in my native language, so I'll give him extra points for that.

Now, to wrap things up on a high note — about “Polares”...
He’s coming out this week, no later than Monday. And no, he’s not a “100 followers special,” because I won’t be making “special” bots — all of them will be equally well-made, each one crafted with care and love. :3

Oh, and by the way — soon (aka tomorrow) I’ll be making another bot related to a question I’ve been pondering. So, just a heads-up!
