Wow, I can’t believe you guys had billboards for the Rapture. 
I suppose everything gets advertised these days… And go ahead, ask away!
Boy it’s quiet in here… 
Ha, I remember when this thread was popular.
Ah, it’s not Summer, so that’s why.
Hey guys, I’ve been absent from this thread for a while due to a bit of rumble. I thought that I should in fact explain myself to you guys.
I refused to post on the Pixarteers thread due to a member here who has blackmailed me. I stayed away from this particular thread to stay aware from judgement and for my personal being. That doesn’t mean I haven’t kept my eye on this place.
I haven’t been avoiding you guys because I hate you guys, I was only avoiding one member. And to avoid that member, it meant that I wasn’t going to post here for a while. I think a while has passed long enough and that I should be here once again. Especially since it’s coming close to the end of the year again, when we first became close friends.
Some of us have stayed with each other through the harsh and the beautiful. We’ve made lovely relationships with each other, plans to meet each other, and we shared our dreams. Some of us here have even received the chance to meet the person of our dreams. A person who may stay with us forever. A person who may soon grow apart.
But when we think back to why we became friends in the first place, we need to remember. It was Pixar who made us love our lives. Though there are people out there who make fun of us for liking their movies, for watching their movies, even being obsessed, Pixar has kept us together. We, a little group of close buddies called the Pixarteers, have kept each other strong. We, Planeteers, have kept each other strong. We’re Pixar Planet members and we’re proud.
But we came about for a couple of reasons. We were all in high school. We all shared a loved for these four-wheeled creatures we call cars.
Cars with teeth. Cars with tongues. Cars with different eyes. Cars with different accents. Cars with different voices. Cars with genders. Cars beautiful in his or her own way. Cars that have beautiful moments like we do in the Summer. Cars that have harsh moments like we do when Winter strikes. Cars with bright minds. Cars with slow minds. Cars with fast speeds. Cars with slow speeds. Cars in a rainbow of colors. Cars the worst of enemies. Cars the best of friends. Cars with souls.
It was this movie, Cars, that made us all have a connection. It was this lovely group of underrated characters, that made us unique from the rest of the world. It was this story that reminded us to slow down for just a second. The movie that told us that for one minute, the world can wait.
This year will mark half of a decade sharing our lives with these characters. Though they’re not alive in the physical sense, they’re alive in the child inside of all of us. They’re alive in our fan fictions. They’re alive in our minds. They’re alive in our fan art. They’re alive in our poems.
It only took a little less than two hours to tell the story of Cars. A second of walking out of the theater with our hearts throbbing. A lifetime of smiling.
It was Pixar that did this. It was Pixar that made us believe that (not only the characters of Cars) the characters of these movies are alive and real. It’s Pixar that’s able to make us stare into computer animated eyes and feel real feelings.
For that second of looking into the eyes of our favorite characters, we feel five again. We feel like running outside and playing on the playground again; pretend to be our favorite characters. We feel like being Lightning McQueen while our other friends are Chick, The King, everyone. We feel like being Sulley and we call our best friend our Mike. We feel like Russel from UP. We feel like Boo. We feel like the little baby car staring up at her idol in the crowd of the race.
Though Cars isn’t one of the best Pixar movies; harshly criticized, we stayed together. We didn’t just change our likes just because everyone else didn’t like it. We stayed true to ourselves. We stayed true to each other.
It’s moments like these when I think back and realize: It all started with one movie. One studio. Millions of computer animated souls.
That seems so magical to me. So thank you, Pixar Planet. Thank you for connecting me with people who are just like me. Thank you for making me feel part of something. Thank you for making me feel normal. Thank you for giving me the biggest laughs and some of the worst tears. In the end, I believe it’s all worth it. All of this. Every single moment we all shared, not just the Pixarteers, but Pixar Planet as a whole - worth it. Thank you for existing, Pixar Planet. And thank you fellow Pixarteers, Cars fans, and Pixar fans, for being in my life.
Me and the other memeber had an argument literally weeks ago.
Weeks.
In fact, I’m sure it’s been over a month by now.
I don’t really understand why it was randomly brought to the public eye. It’s not like an argument is any of your businesses, no offence. Nor did it have anything to do with Pixar Planet in the first place. So if anyone tells you otherwise, it’s not true.
So yes, seriously, forget about it. Besides, this member hasn’t been online for the past week, after sending me and three others a very hateful message on Facebook. I’m stating this because I don’t want lies spread about me once again.
It’s been reported. And my father works for the police department. So if anything happens, I will tell him. Since I told you guys about what this member did though, this member is going to send out all of my deepest secrets, which was in this member’s own words in the message this member sent me. I already posted my secrets on my blog though because of this, so it doesn’t really matter anymore if this member does or doesn’t. I have many on my side who will back me up against this member. They will keep me safe from any possible emotional harm.
I just wanted to make this clear to you guys instead of from another’s foggy point of view.
So you guys can be my friend. You guys can dislike me. You guys can hate me. And if it comes down to that, I apologize. But all of you have made me grow in all areas. Like a tree, I grew different branches. It was you guys that made me like a tree, I reach for the sky. I reach for the sun. I reach above the clouds. I reach for the moon. I reach for the stars. And I just stay in one place - Pixar Planet.
I’m dealing with something like that myself,but that was a nice post. 
Your dad works for the police department?! COOL!
Yes, but he’s no longer an officer. Now, he just works on the towing and vehicles. He quit his other job. But that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have connections.
Unlike another person, I don’t bring my issues onto a board to make them public - unless it’s the grind my gears thread or this particular event. This event needed to be shown to you guys because it is indeed serious.
So if you’d like to vent to me through a private message, I will not tell anyone, show anyone, or do anything of that nature because that’s not me. I don’t do that no matter what anyone else says. That’s not me. What one says to me, stays with me.
I wish some people would just get along…
Yeah, but some people deserve action taken upon them. Which is what some members will get if they make another move.
Pixar Planet
I’m talking about a different member who has been harassing me. I’ve literally never seen you before.
So, yeah, nice to meet you?
Whoa, that was intense. I didn’t think that was the reason why you left for a bit… I should have noticed though considering I saw you post on other boards but not here. I’m glad you’re not mad at us and sadly I think I may know which member you are talking about but I won’t say any names. It’s really great to hear from you on here again Jess, I suppose you saw my post a while back saying that I missed you so I won’t restate that. Excellent to see you again.
Nice to see you again.
Yeah, but it’s all good now. The mods are going to take care of the member.
My absence is school as well, but since it’s memorial day weekend, I’m posting again for a bit. 
I’ll be reading your fan fiction soon. Don’t think that I forgot. I don’t forget things on here. 
I’m glad they are taking care of it. Like the site says, “We notice if you lose weight, or a limb”. We truly do look out for one another. I’ve learned that in a few ways and I haven’t even been here that long. I’m soooo happy you haven’t forgot about my fan fic. <3 I can’t wait for you to read it, I’m nearly done it but the amount of readers has kind of slowed which is discouraging. Knowing that you’ll read it though lightens my spirits.
I’m glad that you, the mods, and many others are on my side about this. The issue itself has gone way too far. I’m happy something is finally being done about it.
Yeah my amount of readers slowed down a lot as well, but right now I’m not really paying attention. Like I don’t mind right now because of all of the work I’m doing in school. 
It’s such a pain. I hate it.
You can count on me though because I really like your story. And I miss it a lot.
I’m on your side for sure. No one deserves to be treated badly on this site, or any other site for that matter. I can assure you that when you do continue on with your story I’ll always be a reader! Awww, thanks for such a nice compliment about my story. You should know how much I adore yours. 
Thanks for everything. And being the first one on my friends list too! You know, I have a lot more friends on this site. 
I’m too lazy to add them. I think I should start before people get insulted.
I’m not sure who I added first to my list but I know you were probably in the first three at least. I remember when I first sent you that PM asking if I could join the Pixarteers and if you were going to continue your fan fic. I’m very honoured to be your first! 
<<< OK that sounded kind of wrong so don’t take it that way. Now that I’ve pointed it out you probably will though. 
Oh my.
Didn’t expect that!
Hahahaha my bad. Where did everyone go…?
They probably feel weird after what I wrote exposing a member who they thought was a nice person. The fact of the matter is: It was going to happen sooner or later.
