I was 14 when I found you guys all so many years ago.
Now, I’m nearly 21. This forum has been such a pivotal part of my transition into adult life. Before Once Podcast and the forums, I didn’t realise that being completely invested in a show was something that was not only normal, but grounding for many; a space away from our busy lives where we got to relish in something we loved.
For all of the ups and downs that this show has brought over the years, it is the discussions and friendships that I’ve been a part of and witness to on the forums that have changed me and will be the fondest memories of OUAT.
I will never forget hearing my theory discussed on the podcast for the first time. I won’t forget RumplesGirl responding to one of my posts; I freaked out for so long that a Once Podcast celebrity had taken the time to write back to something I said. I won’t forget getting to defend my opinion with passion and might, even when it went against what others thought.
Thank you to the people of Once Podcast, admins, members and lurkers alike.
If at all possible, I hope the forums posts are archived to download, even if the site goes down.
Thank you for the last seven years.
Love, Kyle.
