Haha kind of sounds similar to my list of avi sites and such. I have been off and on with them as well.
Of course, Gaia was my first, I think in '06 or something when it was friendlier. I did take like a year or so hiatus from it then went back on with friends and had fun for a couple years
then got tired of the evil community there so I looked elsewhere. Roliana, Solia, and others I can't remember. One of them I really tried, but the community was rude to me, like I drew a picture for someone and I forget what he did but it made me sad so I left. IRL took over so I got distracted for a while, but then something happened and I was basically a shattered soul for a while. I found Ernya, and it's cheesy but if it wasn't for them, omg I dont know what I would have done. They literally held me up during the time in my life where I literally felt like dying ;c;
Even the rudest troll on there treated me with so much kindness (behind the scenes lmao) and helped me so much. One girl even sent me a package in the mail with cute things just to cheer me up ♥
That is why that site was very much cherished :>
They also boosted my art confidence, and if it wasn't for them I wouldn't have opened myself for RLC, and a lot of nice things wouldn't have happened to me in the past years~
I think I started going on a tangent xD oops
