Wow, welcome back to the game. You’re even more of a veteran than me. Good luck, senpai! You can do it. And when you get to 60, you’ll be a legend! 神話になれ!
Thanks man. I’ll take a look at those threads, I hadn’t seen them before . Also agreed about @Kumirei.
Yuummmm as you should! what kind of prăjituri do you like?
Hmmm in my opinion it’s not really worth it, that time could be better spent reading or doing something like KaniWani/KameSame to practice EN --> JP (I started KW right after I reached 60 and it’s been awesome practice! You can even set it to only sync burns or something, or just work through it by level like me)
Or you could use the self-study quiz script for extra practice, you can filter it by SRS level and set it to burns if you want ^^
Well done! What are your plans now? Reaching for the stars?

I miss him too. And the old forums as well, even though I only caught the tail end of it. I think it was a more interesting place with lots of eccentric characters. @jprspereira made sure Melon saw your kinds words.

You guys are too kind! I haven’t been as active on the forums lately; maybe I should participate more.
As much as I like to blame the poll thread for restricting lighthearted and silly discussion outside of that thread, I think mostly it’s the users who have changed. While it has gotten more regulated (rip Midorin), the user base just isn’t the same anymore. The old users moved on and new ones took their places, changing the atmosphere. I think I miss the drama the most, the forums are so calm now.
For the time being, finish my reviews and lessons, I still have a big pile waiting for me all in a day’s work for the Crabigator. After that, just do my reviews until everything is burned I guess. I plan to practice my handwriting at some point too, and supplement my kanji knowledge to cover all N1 kanji, there’s a lot missing from WK. Maybe using anki or something, I dunno ¯\(ツ)/¯.
I regret having missed the private message feature the most. Somehow that got activated while I was in hiatus and disabled by the time I had come back . I guess all things come to and end sometime.
It looks like a bit of drama got started in the “worth writing kanji?” thread made me feel a bit excited but yeah, the forums are pretty calm now compared to when I started.
I remember how awesome sect names were, somehow the discourse titles just don’t feel the same way
No one’s ever called me senpai before… I must live up to it and work harder than ever before!
Also, I too miss all those old posters, I’m filled with regret that I didn’t post more back then. Everyone seemed so cool, maybe I’ll make up for it and become friends with the cool people here now.
I’m going for the N1 in December (I’ve been practicing my kanji outside of WK), I look forward to memorizing those kanji alongside you.
There’s an anki deck for everything… and if there isn’t one right now, there will be soon! I was actually going to make one over the summer, but if you find one first please let me know
I’m gonna take the N1 in Boston, it would be fun if I saw some other turtle-burners there as well.
Nothing concrete. Maybe get a translator certification of some kind and/or see if I can find some Japanese company that’d be willing to hire me. Who knows… I don’t even know what I’ll be doing next week, let alone next year. Winging it mostly
