User blog:DarkStalker719/January, February, March, and April Update

Alright, it's been far too long since I did one of these. This is going to be a long post, so I'm splitting it into two parts. Anyway, I've got a lot to say, so here goes.

The Past Four Months
I really don't have much to put here. I haven't been active to any satisfactory degree, and haven't done much regarding BIONICLE outside of the wiki. This has been primarily due to a complete lack of intrest, and there was actually a period where I seriously considered leaving the wiki. I eventually decided against it, but I still am not likely to be as active as I once was.

Otherwise, the past few months have been fine. The weather's finally getting warm so that's nice. I've been doing some other stuff, but nothing important.

Story Updates
This is going to be expanded upon in the second part of this post, but the basics are that I'm cancelling the Seeds of Madness Alternate Universe and replacing it with a new storyline. I'm not going into a ton of detail here, but I wanted to write something on a smaller scale.

What Lies in the Dark will still be finished. Somewhere in the future. I'm going to keep the pages for all of my characters from the Seeds of Madness AU up, they simply will not be expanded.

MOCing
As far as MOCing goes, I don't have much to report. I still need to make a MOC post, but haven't gotten around to it.

Some More Personal Stuff
There are a few things that I would like to go over that are more personal that I feel I should be clear about. When I first joined this wiki, I wrote all of my trivia points in the third person. In those sections, I wrote stuff such as "DarkStalker719 is proud of Deferan's personality, as he went to great lengths to make it unique." Not an exact quote, but it will do. Anyway, some of you may have noticed that in March, I went through and changed all of those to a gender neutral wording.

During that time, I was going through a period of self-examination and a sort of identity crisis. For that reason, I wanted to remove any mention of my gender from the wiki. After that time ended, I have decided that I identify as genderfluid, with a preference to being female. I don't want this to change anyone's opinion of me, nor do I want everyone to feel as though they have to refer to me in a different manner. The only way this will affect the wiki is that I would prefer to be referred to as female. Prefer, not demand. I'm fine if anyone slips up, or prefers to continue referring to me as male.

Conclusion
The second half of this post will arrive on the 18th, for my anniversary.

Until then, [insert phrase of choice].
