Copied/Pasted from the text of speech: " Uhh... Hi.... It's been a moment, certainly. And I think it's about time I talk. A lot of people have noticed my inactivity, and obviously I've noticed myself. So that'll be the main thing I'll be talking about today. So, if none of you already know, I don't actively post anymore. Who's fault is that? No one but my own. I sincerely apologize for kinda just abandoning the platform, really. I'm not trying to make 'excuses', but while I do have reasoning, I believe that me just leaving isn't something I should've just done out of nowhere. I truly, do miss being here. Posting, talking, and just having fun. My interest on scratch though.... I hate to say it, but it kinda drifted away. While I'm not pointing fingers or playing the blame game, my interest slowly began to fade after someone left. I'm not gonna say who, but just know they were a great person and I wish them well. While there were, and still are definitely amazing people here. While there were, and still are definitely amazing people here. Back then, I felt there was truly a reason for me to wake up and instinctively open up scratch even before school. But now? I lack motivation, I don't talk to some of my friends here, and different interests began to develop. Yet, still, I can't help but wish I could find that same enjoyment I did 2 years ago on scratch. While, I was definitely weirder, cringe, and just- probably annoying. I was always happy to talk to my friends and just be there. Posting random stuff that came to my mind. I'm not saying I'm not happy for people liking my current stuff, because I'm more than grateful. Heck, I'm surprised I still wake up and get messages of people following me and liking my stuff. But I definitely left the platform in silence. Even if I made a post or two a while back. I said I would come back, become active again like I used to. Yet I broke that promise, I hate breaking promises, especially to great people. So what now? Am I actually coming back? No and yes. While I lack activity here I truly want to stay here, even if I post very little or just come here to be here. I love this platform. It'll always be a big part of me. I'm not here for attention, I'm here for me and you. Maybe, sooner or later, I will come back, but it will not be right away. I hope some of you can forgive me, I don't need full forgiveness. I still have interests in gacha and fnaf and OC lore. I also now like drawing, like forsaken and dandy's world (Games on roblox), And spend a lot more time on Reddit and D!sc. While some people would say it's normal to grow out of things, including scratch. I miss being here so much. I can't say I hate it or else I'd be a huge liar. So what will I do here now? Maybe post art/speed paints. Maybe animate. Maybe new stuff. While I can't go back in time, I can still enjoy being here, even if I've grown to have different interests. I guess that's all I really have to say. Thank you so much for your time. See you soon! " -Evie --- I hope this cleared up my inactivity. Again, I apologize for leaving so silently, especially apologizing to some people who might've missed me. Thank you again for your time. <3 I surely hope to soon post on here again!!
