>>36486312I can accept partial blame, however like I said, I'm not the sole reason. As I continued to hang out, I minded my steps, and my p's and q's. i had gotten to the point where I ate up all the fish, and thus became the whale. Then I realized, "Ah, should give room to the little fish." and so I have, whether or not the little fish are scared to post or the little fish aren't as active as they were before the whale became a whale, is really up to you guys.
Since, metaphorically speaking, I be the whale, and ye, the fish. There's no intention on killing /ef/ as that would destroy my own little home.
That being said, I can't be the only thing swimming in the pond, you have to swim too as well my friend.
And yes, there will be times where I'll move, and invite my other whale friends to swarm, this is just the nature of these sort of things. However, an ecosystem relies on both the massive and the minisicule to play both their roles.
>>36486459My collection sadly only grows with you guys; I am not a finder, just a collector. In this, I need you guys and in return, I pull back from my own inhibitions.
Ultimately, we have a paradox. "/ef/ is dead due to the whale." and "/ef/ cannot be dead, because there is a resident whale who chooses not to be a whale to restart the ecosystem."
