To conclude this, I want to say, thank you Tanzim for letting this settle and wanting to get this friendship close to being 100% reconciled, and for clearing this up better than I could.

You are one of my best internet friends and I cannot imagine my life without you as my internet friend.

I genuinely do hope his break is going well, but I am also worried about the longevity.

I also may feel like taking a break myself if this continues to worry me.

Please do not attack the both of us. We are only human at the end of the day.

Tanzim wanted to take a hiatus before November 9th, or no earlier than that date, and I wished him luck.

I was waiting for him to come back so we can have our friendship be locked in for good, but the date passed and he hasn't come back for days after that.

And now I am legit worried for him.

When Trent sent me his vent pics via Discord, I felt sorry for him more considering that he is my friend and I wanted to end this feud as much as he wanted to.

We had wrote and sent each other our apology notes sincerely.
It was a very hard task to do, but I pulled through and did it.

A week after the breakup occured, after we've unblocked each other and me accepting Tanzim's offer to reconcile, we've been chatting again before his hiatus turned into a disappearance.

We both expressed how much we've regretted arguing and being rude to each other and wanted to bury the hatchet.

Internet friends, even if they aren't face to face with each other for privacy concerns (for a reason), DO care.

The more you get to know them, the more they support you.

I had zero reason to snap at my internet friends, especially if someone is caring as Tanzim.

But, the more I kept hearing this "internet friends don't care" mentality, the more I became a careless asshole at the time.

This mentality almost took over my personality completely. I wanted to snap at every internet friend because they aren't in real-life, but I couldn't.

The thing is, Tanzim is my friend because he genuinely helped me pull through the darkest times of my life and made me want to improve myself for the better.

He was there for me when I need him, just like how I was there for him when he needed me.

This quote "two wrong's don't make a right" cannot be any more true than that.

When my friend sent him my messages about my regrets, he felt emotional knowing that we've been great friends since 2018 after he unveiled his fursona to the public.

But there is more to that than our output.

During our breakup - before he wanted to patch things up, he told my friend Trent that the incident was also his fault. He was mad at me for my rash decision but has looked back on with regret not long after.

Both of our bad decisions caused us to black out our PFPs for the time being.

4th October 2025 was one of the worst days of my internet life, as I was a bitter, narcissistic, selfish ass to people including him. After this incident happened, I had to let my true emotions out, acknowledge my regrets and felt guilty.
That decision showed that I was a bad person.

We both did not mention each other's names at the time, given that would lead to the drama escalating further and the grudge would most likely be permanent.

But this grudge is mainly my own fault. He told me, long before he likely disappeared, that he added more fire to it.

I personally don't get this "analog horror" stuff, myself.
probably because I am not one to watch a lot a creepy videos except for when I am in a specific mood for it.

nvm found a workaround

Your logo bloopers and Funny Signs series are some of my internet nostalgia bombs for me, and these still get a chuckle out of me as an adult now.

If my request of the Bravo ident wasn't there, it would've not been as popular as it is today, let alone an AVID article about it.

Mad respect to Dave.

So, to conclude the long thread, I guess I have to say thank you to davemadson for still crediting me for even requesting the Bravo UK ident from 1997. I was a teen when requesting it, and now I'm talking about this at 28, a grown adult.

The fact that you're still making these is a blessing to me.

I remember requesting Dave for the Bravo UK ident to scare MS Sam since he used to get scared by "scary" logos for shits and giggles, although it's surprising how, by watching the next few episodes, he isn't scared of the ident anymore.
