Dear Chauncey,
With sadness I am reading your post you started this thread with. Though no RL reasons are given you're leaving us, I am hoping it is nothing serious of the kind, but that you just have taken a new road in life. And you trust this community to others.
You have always been that anchor of we all feel we could cling to, no matter how stormy the waters were. I have known you though the years in PM an chat, by email and through our characters. What you have given to us as site owner, cannot be put into a price. This is great immaterial wealth, the world of feelings.
I could write a long post, but this time I am not doing this. Hopefully we will see you now and then online, roaming around. We will keep the dream alive. Take care and good luck out there. You will be missed.
Namárië! Until we meet again.
Sincerely yours,
Aikari Salmarinian

When I came to HO, I honestly didn’t know what I was getting myself into. But I’m so very glad I ended up here. You have guided HO for a long time and have been a wonderful leader and creator in all you do. You have made something truly beautiful that means so to everyone. You have created a safe place for us all, a place where we can interact and bond and build relationships. You have done so much for this site and the people on it, and like others have said, we can never thank you enough. You left a lasting mark on us all. Although we’ve maybe only interacted briefly over the years, I’ve enjoyed those strange and interesting moments and felt honored to be in your presence. You are a living legend, and again, have done more for HO than we can thank you for. I wish you well in your future and will miss you greatly. HO is in great hands. Thank you.

As a relative newbie, I can't comment on how the site formed and developed. But I can thank you for what you have left as a legacy. I looked at joining a number of HP sites at the same time and this is one of only two that have endured in what is a relatively short space of time.
What kept me here, and makes this my #1 is the community that comprises the site. It feels inclusive and I feel included and that (as someone who has been on a lot of similar sites in the past) means a heck of a lot.
So, many thanks for passing the baton in such great shape, and I'm sure the 'next generation' will continue to develop it in the spirit to which it has been fashioned to date.

C,
As usual, I am late to the party. Honestly, I put this off because I really wasn't sure what to say. Thank you seems too small. You shaped me in my teenage years seems a little dramatic. Both are equally accurate. When I first found this site, I was in high school. I'm now a grown adult. Someone who I started talking to ten years ago because of this site is how I wandered back. I found people here that years later I still talk to or check in with. New people who I now consider friends as well. Even when we lost people, the site always seemed to stand together. Even through the drama, or even when I wanted to throttle you (sorry!) due to some rule change, you kept us going. The site is still going strong all these years later, and you're to thank for that. You're to thank for the great memories we've all shared over the years. Heck, the site probably contributed a lot to improving my writing and me wanting to pursue that more. I wish you the best in wherever you go next in life. I hope it's everything you want and more, and thank you, C, for giving me this wonderful place to grow up in.
Love,
Katy
