I no longer know or recognize most members of the facepunch team,
though I believe the spirit of shitty Lua codes still persists. I expect you
know better than I the appropriate course of action, and I leave you to
it. Expect no further correspondence from me regarding these matters;
this is my final epistle.
Yours in infinite finality,

Please listen to this song all the way through, if not now, then later. It's very important to me and consider it my last request if any of us other posters mean something to you.

This has all been said many times and many ways, but I'll get it out anyways.
I've been on facepunch for almost 13 years. That's a long time. I started in middle school, graduated high school, got a bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering, moved 5 times, got two jobs, played over a decade of games, and got banned over a dozen times.
Facepunch shaped a major porition of who I am today. It didn't matter, growing up, where I was in the world or how fucked up a time I was going through, facepunch was a constant in my life. The laughs, the lessons, the friends, the moments- all of them helped me and made me what I am today. I would not have a global view of the world as I do today without having read and interacted with you people from all the corners of the globe. My childhood was fucked up, but this place was there for me and I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for being there. Even the shitposters, those who've been banned, the disgraced mods and those who shall not be named, be it negative or positive, they all taught me something in life or at least gave me a laugh when I needed one.
This forum, and by exention you all, will be a very dear memory near to my heart- even if I don't know you all by name. Your posts were important to someone, somewhere, and believe me when I say they made a difference to someone.
I love this community, thank you all.

Oh, we're not being archived? Right. Now I can be more honest than I have been.
So this forum saw me through some of the worst times of my life, the times I put my life back on track and now. I was an overweight alcoholic when I joined, spent two years getting my life back on track, and here we are. I was afraid of relationships, but I'm trying now.
You've always been in the periphery. No, I haven't felt the need to share this with you, but a dumb fucking LMAO thread, a general on VR and some YouTube threads kept my mind off the shit going on.
Thanks for everything folks, take it sleezy.
After 12 years I finally got gold. 2 weeks before the ship sinks....
If this place really is going down, then shit. It's been maybe 12 years since I got into Facepunch, since I lost my first account like an idiot. News, Media, tech support and great discussions; this place has been my one stop shop for years. This place has been my internet 'home' for forever, and while I'm sad to see it go due to some highly questionable management decisions, I have, without a doubt, enjoyed my time here immensely, and wish you all the best. I'll see those who chose to go there on Knockout. Thanks for all the fun.
Man I don't even know how to make a thread I gotta be more active on knockout. Rip in peace facepunch you beautiful trash fire.
This past 11 years on FP has been a pleasure. What a ride.

I remember when I first joined in January 2010. Back then I was only capable of making outrageous map/model requests as if people did this stuff for free. Then I necrobumped a thread, and it backfired on me so bad I ended up lurking for several months. Some months later I came back from nowhere and became a semi-regular poster, especially in WAYT and the DeviantArt Appreciation Stations. My time here has been very chaotic with lots of funny moments alongside posts that made me look like a tardigrade. Sadly the combination of Discord taking off in popularity and FP abandoning its old site to this new one drove me away for a while. Now that I actually want to come back I find out it's too late with the looming threat of the site shutting down being very real.
I like you guys. I may not have known a lot of you, and I may have said some spicy hot takes in the past, but it's been a fun time being here. So instead of getting myself banned, I'm going down with this ship. Maybe I'll come back to Knockout if I'm feeling up to it.
See you on the other side,
-FunnyStarRunner
I blame the right wing negativity for this.
Aw, my girlfriend introduced me to this site and I ended up lurking every day. Wish I posted more and maybe got to know a few of you.
Hopefully I'll end up chatting with you folks more on knockout, get some of that old-school internet board community feel.
i blame the spiders
Left for class earlier today after making a post, expecting FP to be gone when I got back so I made a quick post. I'm glad I got to see this forum again.
So many laughs from LMAO Pics, so many helpful tips from the Games threads and this was the place I would go to hear about the news in Sensational. Signed up for FP when I was junior high, and FP saw me through High School and into my first few years of college. Thank you Facepunch, for everything. Most importantly, a huge thanks to this fantastic community I was happy to be in. You guys provided so many great posts that I took heart when I was deep in depression. Thank you all, so much.
Not sure what's next, but I'm glad I got to spend eight years here. Here's to Knockout.

Ho shit. I'm five posts away from 5000. I guess I'll have the pleasure of ending on a nice, even number.
My very first post(s) on Oldpunch was one of the cringiest things I have ever done. Dating advice. Ended up marrying the woman a year or two later.
Seems only fitting this place is going to die the same time as my marriage. Can't express my love for you all. Thank you for all the support and allowing
me to lurk. I hope Knockout ends up working. This community is too good to fall apart.
Garry thank you for the countless hours of my life spent here. Its been really good man.
remember never thinking I’d made it to 5000 posts , oh boy
I would like to say big fuck you to myxo cuz the cunt was advocating for the rape of a friend of mine. I hope he burns in hell and gets destroyed.
I've been around here a really long time, lurked two-three years before making my account.
It's been real.
It has been
It started when I found a server on the minecraft server list called "Heavy Petters" by @Shadaez . The people were so fun there and people said they were on some forum called "Facepunch." I joined and made my way to the newest minecraft thread (at that point v4). Everyone already with a minecraft account could give the game away to someone for a holiday promotino, and Shadaez gave an account away to me. Cool stuff. That was 10 years ago.
Then I joined a server called "Age of Mines" run by @Oskutin and hosted by @Dragory . This was a lot of fun for a year, and eventually @Loriborn and I took over. Then it faded away.
Around the same time I found 2b2t on and brought it to facepunch's attention with a thread. This caused a surge in popularity and now Facepunch is somehow in the annals of "2b2t history," whatever that is. To this day there's still kiddos on reddit contacting me to ask where the facepunch base coords are. For some nostalgia check out this video of Fort Creationism Corner.
It's been years since I came back on facepunch and now it's to play minecraft again on a facepunch/knockout hardcore minecraft server, max no relax v2. This blogpost is because there's no other online community that I've spent so much time on, and I've been a member here for almost half my lifetime. Getting into minecraft in 2010 brought me on a wild journey and honestly is the reason I am in the career I'm in today. Wish I had a chance to meet more of you, especially in real life. See you around knockout or the discord, or maybe garry will keep this up. Message me on discord or find me somewhere online if we played together in the old days and you want to reconnect!

It's low production, and ends abruptly -- just like facepunch
I'm gonna miss Facepunch, I found out about a lot of cool shit on this Forum (Homestuck (before it was trash), Minecraft, Source engine mapping), I'm sure Knockout! will be OK but it won't be the same. It defiantly made me a better person on the internet and I dread to think what kind of rabbithole I could have fallen down if I started on another website.
RIP Facepunch, it's probably going to be one of the last, if not the last traditional style forum I post on frequently. I'm gonna miss your silly drama and pointless debates.
