Wow,You joined at age 11?Impressive kiddo I was playing ring and run at 11 and other kids games
This would have went so far over my head
Even at Age 15 as your profile says I was writting on Walls
And hang in street corners
I must admit when I first joined you were one of the first greeting handles I seen,you seem to know your stuff
After four years someone should have ranked you,you are active and helpful
i've been on this site since 2005 [actually i found the site a few years before that but i had a phobia of chat-sites so i stayed away] i was on and off and i grew as a witch in that time. when i joined the site there was no ranking system! the only thing you had to rely on was the belief moderators knew what they were talking about. i wound up focusing on college and pretty much logged off all internet activity for a few years. when i came back a lot had changed and there was a ranking system. i didn't understand it so i ignored it and went back to what i enjoyed doing [answering questions on the forums, posting spells and articles, organizing forums of the covens i was council in] one day i got ranked and i thought 'thats neat' and moved on.
trust me, it's no big deal. the only people i ever hear upset about rank is those who don't have one. no one puts any weight on the rank. just do what you do and be confident in what you know. but if you choose to leave the site no one can stop you. i suggest not deleting you account in case you choose to return one day. good luck to you.
I came to this site with nearly 30 years of experience, yet I was here for nearly five years before I received a ranking. And you know what...it never bothered me. I wasn't out to get a ranking. I was here to enjoy myself, help others, and learn a thing or two myself. I could do all of that without a rank. Rankings mean very little here. Don't chase it and perhaps it will find you.
As to an old profile in 2011, if there is nothing to link your current profile to your old one then no one has any idea as to how long you've been here. So what was done when you were posting under that profile has no impact on what you do today.
Joined at age 11 did you? You do realize that you broke the rules when you joined. Had you been caught you would never have been permitted on this site again.
I don't blame you Lily, there is a lot of nonsense like the ranking system, coven leaders unjustly kicking out members, and stories I've heard about messages from adults to minors. Fact is, just about every social website has problems like these and countless others. There are plenty of good people here to learn from and for many a good place to share info on magic and make friends. Maybe you could take a break from the site rather than delete your account.
I have just joined this site but haver been reading the forums for a while and I dont know what I find more disturbing, the fact that there is a forum post with a member stating they will leave if they are not ranked, or the fact that it worked and they did get ranked - especially when most of said members posts are a compressed version of a moderators standard post with advice for new members wanting to learn
I have a question to things similar to this, So last Friday i was on and then I logged off without any problem, my first day on that account. Then today (Monday), I try to log on after not being on through the weekend and it pretty much said that I was gagged. I have no idea why that is. I'm really confused and lately I've been trying to find a new website similar to this website because it's really annoying trying to find a new username and password and email address to use every 2 days. Can you help me and tell me what I'm doing wrong so that way I can stop doing whatever I'm doing?
