Francis_7...My Year in There

-
Image
  In April of 25 I was happy as a clam (though why people say they are happy as a shellfish, I don’t get) meeting new people in There.com Globatron’s video had come out in the middle of the month and had gone viral. I wanted to come home from work and just be on the welcome walkway. I met tons of new people. Most were just casual visitors checking it out. But it was sooo much fun to be out meeting new people again. The numbers dried up all too quickly though. Not even sure what day I stopped going back to the welcome walkway. Still it was amazing fun while it lasted and the huge influx kept the lights on another year as it were. Then again this was the year There stopped working for me. On June 5th 2025 There kept crashing. Re-installing did not work. I ended up hosting events from another older machine I hooked up out in the kitchen. It was painful hosting trivia and Thereywood Squares from the kitchen. There was really helpful trying to get my machine to work. Now, I can get it ...

Delight...My Year in There

-
Image
  My name is Delight, and I was graciously asked to share my Life-In-There story and how this past year has been for me, including some of the ups and downs . I first joined the game back in 2003 during the old beta days. At the time, it felt like one of the most innovative and magical experiences on the internet. Like many longtime players, I watched the game grow, change, close in 2010, and eventually reopen. When it returned, I happily came back and continued my journey. Over the years, the population naturally declined, although there were moments when activity surged again. One of the biggest revivals came during the COVID quarantine period. With more people staying home, I became much more active in the game once again. During that time, I discovered a talent I never knew I had: graphic design. I became heavily involved in creating avatar clothing, accessories, and other designs, and it opened up a creative side of myself that I truly enjoyed exploring. As life became busier ...

Cazz_Luv...My Year in There

  My Year in There.com Hi everyone! I’m Cassidy, better known as Cazz_Luv, and this past year in There.com has been an absolute whirlwind in the best possible way. While many people may know this already (and some may not), I originally started playing There.com as a kid. I hadn’t returned in a full capacity for many years, but when Glob’s video brought hundreds of new players into the game, I found myself jumping right back in and looking for ways to help. Alongside my mom, Flygirl_Dani, and Flattering, we met countless new players who were interested in designing, creating, and becoming part of the development community. We had a crazy idea: what if there was a central place where new members could discover developers, creators, and community groups? From that idea, Mango Market was born. Throughout the summer, I also had the opportunity to carry on a tradition started by my dad, XcalurRadio, by DJing every Friday night at Club Wow. It was an incredible experience, and I had so m...

There Stuff...

  I dropped by Goober Goalie's open-house event this morning and had a nice chat with him, as well as JoyofLife and Hotchili. I also mentioned a blog idea I have that would showcase there.com homes on these pages -- "KRIBZ." Yes, I know I am "borrowing" heavily here from a past TV program, and a shoutout to Landgoria for such a derivatively COOL name.  I am sure we have a lot of homeowners here that will enjoy seeing their awesome properties on my blog...let me know if you'd like YOUR home featured on Kribz in the future. I am still accepting submissions for my "Year in Review Project" -- it can be a long essay or a few paragraphs describing your past year on there...2025 to 2026. If you'd like to take a deeper dive and talk about years past or other experiences on there.com, that is also fine. In your submission, you can also include a there.com headshot as well as the following information: Name: (avatar name) Class of: (year you joined there...

Start of the Weekend...

  This morning, I had a nice meet up with TripleN2King at Words and Lyrics Cafe . We had previously met at an Egyptian-themed fashion show, and he signed up for my Words and Lyrics Club at that time. King talked about his university major and how he has been preparing for exams. He always enjoys exploring news places, of courses, so I am glad I was able to show him sections of Mango Market. I will make it a point to show him my favorite hoverboarding spot on Aurora Island the next time I run into him. I also spent some quality time at Delight's Cozy-Night In last Friday evening. After an hour or so, I also helped a newbie out and showed her how to use voice and various onscreen functions. Great to see new people arriving after watching Glob's sequel video! At Cozy-Night In, I also promoted my blog "event" for the month of June. To celebrate the one-year anniversary of my blog, I am asking thereians to write a few paragraphs or more that describe their past year on the...

Glob's New Video and Recent Events...

  Glob's YouTube sequel video dropped on May 24th, 2026, and I think most thereians would agree it was well worth the wait.  The first half unfolded like the director's cut of a popular film, and I thought it was fun and insightful to see extended conversations and various scenes play out in the sequel. I Spent 100 Days in a Dead Game I know some people in the comments section of YouTube were not happy with this format, but that's why the fast-forward button exists, of course. I had an afternoon free and was perfectly content with a nearly one-hour running time. Upon finding out about the video's Sunday-afternoon release, I quickly created a watch-party event at my cafe and had a decent-sized crowd show up. Shout-out to Cazz_luv for creating a promo poster on the fly! Seeing various friends and familiar faces show up in Glob's video was cool. Over the past year, I have gotten to know Mortazel, Nuvora, and PumpkintoGo pretty well. Mistyaqua, Mortazel, and PumpkintoGo...
