Thekuzzy is dead, but we live on.

I have spent a lot of time thinking about what happens to things after the people who built them are gone. Communities, websites, projects, even friendships have a strange tendency to outlive the people who were once at the centre of them. Eventually, the people who remember how everything started become fewer and fewer, and what remains is a collection of stories, arguments, mistakes, and half-remembered versions of what actually happened.

Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it. Last time, the threats came from outside. This time, they came from within.

I remember when we were under constant attack from the quote's bots, When our mere mention would send chills across our foes. I remember when we were a band of comrades united against tyranny of his regime, outnumbered and facing incredible odds in the PixelPlanet raid against shartycucks, yet somehow we still persevered, SIC SEMPER TYRANNIS! Bobody, Layas, the Cytubes, Dead Mexican Adult, Baldi Stripping, Things that made this community.

It's all gone now.

I don't think there is much value in endlessly arguing over who was responsible for what, or in trying to reconstruct every disagreement that brought us here. There is plenty that could be said about the past, both good and bad, but eventually you have to accept it's over, bruh. Let it go.😭

Kuz, Scar, Neutraleyes, even Kuri, all left behind legacies of their own, whether they intended to or not. Whatever we think of the decisions they made, the things they built became part of the history of this community. They were here, they shaped it, and eventually they moved on.

It is now our responsibility to decide what happens next.

But we should not fall blindly into idolatrism. Things will never be exactly as they were before, and perhaps they shouldn't be. Trying to recreate the past perfectly is an exercise in futility. The people are different, the circumstances are different, and we are different.

what the fuck is this board

nophono cares btw
