For those who bother to read what I say...

I will never have neither the youth, money, or benefits of being like any of you. Because everything tied to both my past and present dictate that to be the truth. Which is fine since I have found that the benefit of having Asperger's (Autism in North America) helps make your collections an interesting topic to me.

Plus... I ended up joining NA because I made the mistake in 2011 where I started to focus on the idea of collecting Transformers instead of video games. My experience with the Transformers fandom was mostly toxic, but I will just say that the second forum I had attended was the very definition of that word.

And... I ended up joining VGS because NA helped solidify my love of VGA graded NES titles. But I also quit two times because the way others started to act was, by far, different than how things were in NA. With nobody caring that their actions and behavior can have negative impacts on those they do not know.

So why am I here? And why I am writing this? It goes back to my disability and the fact it keeps me from having a healthy social life. So despite the fact that I can compare members, evets, etc. to every existing forum I had attended... I need some type of social interaction that is not some type of AI (as proven to me in Japan).

Thus why I am saying this after many of you made claims about me that did harm me. With hopes that by saying this both you and those you mention this to will realize that as bad as things can be for me... A lot of the indirect topics and comments tied to you guys have greatly helped me in the end.

Which does not mean I expect 2024 to be better for me. Or you guys to magically become my friends. But rather me saying thank you for not being those who have helped make my life be this complicated/bad.
