Hey there everyone! Guess I’m still springing surprises. It’s probably been a very long time since the last one though!

I suppose upfront I owe you all an apology and an explaination. Due to some extremely unfortunate events last year, for over an year now I have been on a “vacation” from the Wiki.

A part of me wanted to be back, because I had spent such a huge chunk of my life here, I had made so many friends and had gained such vast experience interacting with this wonderful community. I vowed I would never open this website again, but a part of my brain reminded me I had unfinished business here. So here I am.

2nd of June it was, I believe when I joined this awesome community. And since then it has been a journey unparalleled. I dedicate everything I have achieved till now to the innumerable people who have helped me in my journey. Sadly I would now like to end my association with the wiki. Life has asked me to move on, so move on I must.

Whenever the wiki comes to my mind, first and foremost I think of the lovely people I have interacted with. The entire community had become almost family for me. It would be foolish of me to let go of the relationships I have built here. I know a lot of people, a lot of friends are no longer active participants here but to those who are, please reach out to me on “darthwikia@gmail.com”. I hope our association can continue.

A piece of advice for all newcomers (and even experienced users) this platform - Wikia (Fandom) for you know may seem as a pastime, yet it is nothing short of a stage. A stage where you can not only share your knowledge, but gain important life experiences. Throughout my wiki career I have learnt social skills, how to handle problems, take the right decisions and most important of all, act responsibly. Don’t take it lightly. Try to squeeze every ounce of creativity, every bit of effort you can. I assure you it will help you in school, college, your career or wherever else you may go. Don’t ever let the Wiki die; think of how you can improve it, even if it is only an edit a day.

I seriously wanted to name the people who have helped me here the most; but then I realised I could not name so many! Every single one of you here has in some way helped me evolve.

It’s true what they say - all good things do come to an end. For me, this wiki was “the good thing” ; I hope throughout my 3 year career here I have done enough for you to consider me as “the good thing”!! :)

Thanks and best regards,

Darthwikia (Former Administrator and Bureaucrat)
