Hello! You probably don't know me, as I haven't logged in here for a while. You see I used to love this show(I still do to be honest and I watch the whole thing once a year in memory of the good times) and also I used to love this Wiki. I would log in every day and be online for hours talking, learning and some times help with editing and expanding this site. The first time I watched the show I was quite young(12 at the time), it was on TV and when it stopped airing, I desperately watch it online all in English with no subtitles (I'm Greek and at the time, even though I took English lessons and was great in it, it was quite a struggle. No worries though, it helped me a lot and learned even better the language!). After I watched everything (except Season 5 as it hadn't aired yet), I felt the need to talk about the whole magical experience of the show. And I found this place! Every one here was so great and I made friends with the same passion as me!(Alfons, Daniel, George and many more) Also the time I first signed in, the wiki was at it's highest and had so many people online any time you logged in. I remember everyone was equally loving "Merlin" and excited for the newest season (Season 5)! When each episode aired, we were all eager to talk about it in here and the place was full of life. After the Season finale(during which I cried my eyes out), we were sad to know that this was the last "new" episode we would discuss and everyone made promises that, even though the show was over, we would still log in and talk and keep the Wiki alive. But not all promises are meant to be kept... So slowly, less and less people would log in and the wiki started feeling like "a ghost town", as I said back in the day. That way I lost interest too and just stopped coming here... All these years, as I grew older(I was 12 when I first came despite the rules. Such a rulebreaker!) I always remembered the time I spent here as the best to be honest! And I felt saddened and guilty that it stopped. Today I had quite a nostalgia! I logged in to no one in here and all the people I knew, gone. That's when I found this post in the forum. All I wanted to say in this kilometre-long message is thank you for caring when all of us didn't. I'm glad to see someone still trying when I wasn't worthy. ❤️
