After some thinking I want to leave this place. And so I will.

Anyone who wants to keep in contact with me, DM me and ask me for my discord.

Yo everyone, some of you might know me, especially if you follow One Piece and HST threads in general on the Battle Forums. I first got into fictional debating around 2016 and it quickly became one of my primary hobbies. The past 8 years have been very enjoyable for the most part, I discovered plenty of new literature I'd never have been exposed to without getting into this whole culture, made a lot of friends and had copious amounts of fun dissecting the minutiae of hypothetical battles.

But for the past few years that same fire and passion I used to have when I first joined this site just isn't there anymore. I have still been on and off mostly due to force of habit and boredom but it's just not been that enjoyable. And lately I have started almost abhorring the thought of writing a CaV post. At some point I could spend almost an entire day immersed in this, either debating on Discord or CV threads, or composing a CaV post, and still feel great, even reinvigorated afterwards. Nowadays I just feel miserable and hate myself after even spending a few hours on CV/Discord or working on a CaV post.

Maybe after so many years fictional debating has finally lost its sheen for me, maybe I have just outgrown it. I don't know. I do think this calls for a long, extended hiatus from fictional debating. This community and this hobby has been very close to my heart for a very long time, so it really feels like the end of an era. But hopefully it's not the end. Hopefully at some point in the nebulous future I stumble upon a hypothetical battle discussion again on some unexpected corner of the internet in a stroke of serendipity. Then reminisce about the good old days, log back in here and make a thread again. One can only hope !

That being said, take care, stay sharp, this is shirso signing off :)

Adios folks (until we meet again) 👋

I haven't been debating hypothetical battles between fictional charactera anywhere near you've been doing, but this feels relatable.

Hey, it's Yoroshi.

I've been lurking on this site for over a decade now, enjoying the ride with all its ups and downs. I first got hooked after stumbling upon the legendary Superman vs. Goku debates—pure, unfiltered chaos filled with some of the wildest, funniest, and most insane meme-fueled flame wars the internet has ever seen. Once I got a taste, there was no going back.

Over the years, I've created battle and general discussion threads under various names (Phantasial, Shintoki, etc.) and have debated with, for, and against many of you. This site has introduced me to countless series, comics, shows, and even obscure books—both Western and Eastern—that I probably never would have discovered otherwise, and for that, I’m grateful.

On top of that, this place even helped me improve my English—though half the time, I was too immersed in discussions to even notice. Everything else just faded into the background, hhhh.

It’s been an honor to meet so many of you… and, well, a misfortune to meet a few, hhhh. But regardless, I want to thank all of you for the incredible time I’ve had here.

and for the friends i engaged with in here; they're many but i'll try to mention a couple of them

crimsonslayer

takstew

ecoblitz

zgtfreak

taurusadlebaran

masterbuster

sevenmoon

Revold

The_Hajduk

supreme

nasser

Bossmountain

ovey

Wushu59

and i for sure forgot others, but those are the ones that come off the top of my mind. with that out, i hope u all have great time in comicvine till u are all sated, cuz i've been feeling sated for quite a while now, and couldn't quit cuz i kept lurking from time to time lol. tho i'll mainly just check out on others now that i reached my goal and disproved some common misconceptions been thought to be true in here (naruto's last form, toneri moon buster, broly, DBZ movies scaling, etc etc) and that's adequately enough for me

so take care of yourselves, guys, i'll still lurk from time to time tho my days a full flledged member are behind me now. cheers, fellas

Hello! Gemini recommended you because I'm looking for a comic book, but I only have a few vague memories of it from about 35 years ago. I am Hungarian and I live in Germany.

What is it you recall about it, and do you remember whether or not it features any specific character you recognize?

@cergic: Unfortunately no, just that there were many people standing around him, they were facing each other, and Spider-Man was hanging in the air with his back to us, all four limbs chained. In the next frame we see Spider-Man's face, his mask torn and his left eye/forehead completely visible. That's all that remains in my memories.
