WOW, it's been 10 years already! How the time flies. Well, many of you here know me by lots of different usernames, many of you have heard of me, most of you have not but in any case it's been fun for me at least in the community we've shared over the last decade. I only see it fit that now, on the 10th anniversary of my 1st Imgflip meme that I retire. You might be wondering the reason why and it's all to do with me simply getting older and losing my spark for meme-crafting. I've been on here since literally the beginning and have grown tired of the same old, you know the score.
When I first came here I was in High School, doing a IT class in the winter of 2012, having to learn ms-paint and being bored af. I was late to hand in a project and never bothered to download ms-paint on my laptop, so I looked for a quick and easy way to create images. There I found Imgflip, created my project cover and sent it in (I completed my coursework!)
From there I created my 1st meme using the generator. A now [deleted] meme of Nikolai getting a Wunderwaffe-DG2 from the mystery box. Yes my 1st ever meme was a COD: Zombies meme, those were pretty big back in the day!
I was still starting drama for the lulz even back then, right up until 2018 when Imgflip required you to have a verified email to comment (It really put a spanner in my works)
Between then and now I've had the opportunity to enjoy the silly internet jokes that we all love and share together.
Over the years many of you have been a blast to talk with, you've been a real good community to me and even though there have been up's and down's we always found a way to laugh about it and continue to get along. For all the fun and drama that we've shared over the years I thank each and every one of you, even those of you I've never met.
But 10 years has been enough for me and it's time for me to hang up my hat and move on to new horizons. It hurts me, especially given how much time spent and how many experiences I've had - All the laughs and smiles over the years. But I've got things that occupy me now and I haven't the time to spare. You've all been a wonderful community and you should pat yourselves on the back.
*I'll still be on here for a short while to answer any remaining questions that you may have.*
To the mods that have helped me over the years, thank you and I hope you have a great time in future!
To all of Imgflip, THANK YOU :') I wish the best for you all in the many more years to come!
