As of December 8th, 2005 The site admin of the Anime Invasion gave his final words, and all that is left is their faint echo. If you remember the forum I speak of then I hope you have read his last message, if not then you can find it. Without the AI, I doubt I'd be using the internet for anything other than gaming. It was a small community, and that is really what it was, a community, even the regular members I could swear I hate, I consider among my dearest online friends, if not my dearest friends online or not.

The death of the AI didn't come as a surprise; I just felt I chose to ignore it even after it was disrespectful to keep tiring to pour life back into it. Part of me still wishes that we could bring it back to life, reanimate the dead in an imitation of Dr. Frankenstein, and the other part of me wants to let it go, to forget it. But I can't do either one; all I can't really do is honor it and let it rest in peace.

I don't really know what I got out of the AI, but I did get something, and I know that I will keep it forever. I also feel that whatever it was, I was pushed out of the nest and made to fly on my own. At the very least I've got my memories and the ability to God-mode effectively when the need arises.

For me at least the AI was like a first love, I'll never feel the same way about another forum, or website, ever. It's death is hard for me, but they say that you never truly die while your name is still spoken, The AI will be alive for as long as I am, even longer should God find me worthy. So on that I refuse to say good bye only, I moved on, but will never forget.
