Eden Enchanted at an end

Journal Entry: Sat Apr 19, 2008, 6:42 PM

Welcome


Eden Enchanted is closing. :cries: After all these years of being one of the top dolling forums (and definitely one of the busiest... hi, 3000+ members!), it was decided amongst the staff that the original creators had other interests, and that Eden was better off being laid to rest at its peak. Eden will definitely be missed. Hopefully we can all keep in touch through here or other forums.

Corrupted Carousel has a decent sized following so far and is attracting more each day. The theme is fun and pretty variant, and the censorship is entirely minimal. No need for blood or gore warnings here, and swearing is pretty much passed over as common, as long as it's not excessive. :)

Real Life

The movie "The Forbidden City" was actually very colorful and amusing to watch. The witch looked fantastic, despite being so young (in my opinion); I want her outfit. I want it NOW. The flashing of light blue and white every time she jumped or spun was amazing, and her white hair was brilliant. The wig cap kind of showed in some scenes, but nevertheless... very pretty.

The Guild Wars 2 beta should be starting soon; I can't wait to try this. I've been putting off playing Guild Wars as it is to keep from being burned out on mmorpgs before the new one arrives. GW2 is going to introduce different races on top of all the professions that GW1 offers, and there will be new actions available, like climbing ladders and possibly swimming. On top of that, it's FREE to play. :typerhappy: Muahahahaha!

If you still have Eden on the brain, you should message me. ;) I am looking for some opinions, insight, ideas, and perhaps a bit of collaboration. B-) Only if you have time, of course.

I can't believe it's closing... I haven't been on EE in ages but I kind of expected it to be there longer...

Wow. Here I thought I'd be advertising my forum on eden, but I haven't got the time to work on my shit anyway.

Eh, it's been a long run, I've made some good friends and lost some others via that forum, but yea.

Same here. I hadn't expected it to ever go under. It was so active. :(

Now would be the time to do it, if any. People are requesting new forums to go and check out. Speaking of which, I lost all of my cookies when my comp had a system restore. Re-link me?

I didn't get the memo from godaddy and they want to charge me $90 to keep pixeldoll.net. Dunno if I can afford it yet is the problem, and my interest has waned considerably. I just wanted a forum where people didn't give a shit about theft and had fun editing and showing what they've done. Mostly because I figure if you think pixel dolls are Serious Business, you have no life.
But eh, they're fun to make so long as I don't spend more than an hour

i've been with eden for a while and noticed how it's been slowly going down-hill. i think it's good that they're going down now, while people still think fondly of it and it's not a complete graveyard. it's a graceful exit, and one that will be remembered, thus keeping EE important to us all in our 'history of pixels'. ^^

Yeah... I registered at CC a week or so ago (followed the link from one of your recent deviations) but I haven't posted at all yet. I'm barely even trying to pixel right now but I like being part of a forum for some reason. I liked FF but they delete you if you're inactive for more than 30 days which happens frequently with me... CC seems good, pretty active and all, but the overall theme is so dark... not sure I like that so much. I'm sure I can live with it but I just don't love it.

The overall is, but not everyone is "corrupted" so to speak. I'm sure that they wouldn't mind if you stuck with your carribbean character rather than going for a darker carnie.

Personally, I wanted to make my own forum... but looking at it now, the costs would make it not worth even starting out. I feel bad for Sandi in that regard; Eden must have been a pain in the ass to keep up here and there.

What is FF? Haven't heard of that one before.

Christ, that's a lot. Admittedly I'd lost a lot of interest, but the new forum kind of caught my interest and brought that urge back. Who knows... maybe I just needed a break from fairies and greenery. Sad that it's becoming a permanent one.
