Happy (late) fourth anniversary, Bakugan Wiki! If you're wondering, DM was supposed to make the blog. He wasn't on when I was, so I decided to make it in his stead, which will probably cause him to chomp me out, so .... the rest is up to him.

After my mandatory letter, of course.

A Little Letter from QueenieEdit

DinoQueen13 Don't run, accept your errors, the truths, the lies Well, as you guys all probably know, I'm the oldest member here, as far as registration date goes (A2 would take the award for oldest currently-contributing member). For those of you who are wondering, I joined around when New Vestroia was just beginning. Our Wiki has come a LONG way from what it used to be. When I came here, there were very few pictures, no consistent page formatting, the pages were terribly developed and had hair-shreddingly bad grammar. In fact, the grammar was the only reason why I came. Don't ask me how I stumbled here, because I have no clue myself. I have to thank all of you guys for contributing to our Wiki and allowing it to grow. Specific thanks go to Koisuru (retired) and Abce2, who actually dedicated their time almost daily to work on the Wiki and attract new users; TwinStar (retired), Airzel-of-haos and DarkusMaster for taking the time to actually debate with me over things, even if sometimes I get ticked off; Bendo14 and Winx for ... being there; DarkusAlpha and KellynKaz for working on the Wiki's design; Rhivana and Keith Strife for keeping us updated on Japanese Bakugan and giving their insight; and RayneHaos, Zachattack31 and DartHolderX, for sometimes being the lone voices of reason in our hectic Wiki. No thanks to spammers, trolls, flamers, and complainers. I hope to see you guys all at next year's anniversary.

What DM was going to doEdit

Well.

I would've at least liked to have been ASKED before having what I wanted to do ripped away from me. >-<

Anywho, I'll make this quick and short (seeing as the other two said pretty much what I wanted to say).

This year's been a hectic one. We got a very buggy chat, MS came and went bringing the likely conclusion of the main series Bakugan Anime with it, we got an announcement of a BAKUTECH anime (Can't wait for it! :D), we had a near infection of ponies (I'm fine with it and all, but seriously, it gets TOO over-the-top), we promoted at least two(?) new Admins, resolved problems with MANY trolls, someofwhicharestillbeingpersistentbugs, and there's been, to put it lightly, LOTS of drama, especially in these past few weeks. But, as always, we've pulled through it all, becoming stronger and more attentive each "incident".

As Bakugan goes, I have pretty much stopped collecting for now. I really don't see much of a point anymore, but BakuTechs are hopefully next on my list if I can use my mother's eBay account freely. I do hope to see more Bakugan in the future, though. And hopefully NO MORE DRAGONOIDS. >->

In terms of Article Quality and Content, we've really broadened our horizons. We've included pages for all Canadian and Japanese voice actors, we've included articles for each and every card, and we have image galleries for once. I hope to see our near 4,400 article count substantially increase as the year progresses.

This year, personally, was a big one for me. As most of you know, I am involved in a lot of band activites, such as the marching band, which took most of my summer away (worth it, though), and the Spring Musical, which is going on now, and is the prime reason I wasn't on when Queenie took this over without my consent (You owe me, Queenesh.) and will also be the reason that I will NOT be on at ALL next week until Friday, but even then, I won't be on long. This year's gonna be another big year, and it'll probably be more busy than last. Marching band once again (Section Leader of seven sousaphones, baby!), a possible part in the Fall Play, and the Spring Musical again.

Yeah, long story short, we've had a good year, and I can't wait to see what Year 5 has in store for us. The fear of the worst is greater than the actual danger. 03:35, March 14, 2012 (UTC)

Oh, and BY THE WAY. The Christmas blog, the New Years blog, and the Anniversary blog next year are mine. You guys owe me.

(Yeah, that's right! Only post on this blog so far without a fancy-shmancy template! What'cha gonna do about it, huh? >:3)

AOH's ... stuffEdit

YUP, I just hijacked part of this :P Anywho, time for MY letter, since apparently DM isn't doing it any time soon >.>

Airzel-of-haos – The Demonis Generation TALK·BLOGS·CONTRIBUTIONS Well, my second Wiki Birthday has just recently passed, and it made me reflect on everything, and this isn't helping. I remember my first day (back when I thought Rec was an ok guy LOL). But that is beside the point. I have seen users come and go, and all those who have stayed and actually tried to be a decent influence in the community, I commend thee for doing as so. All of those newbs who are still afraid, don't be, we won't do anything unless you break a rule or something. And for all those n00bs who can't seem to learn ... I got my eye out for you (I'm on you like a HAWK!). Ah, now back to reminiscing. Wait what? Why do that? Ugh, fine, I would also like to give epic thanks to my ever-changing Wiki-Family for being there for me and each other. It's nice to know there is a little support network going on ^^ NOW I go reminisce. Kbai.
