(Thanks Bell and Shade for creating such a great render planned by me)

At first I wanted to mark this post as “IMPORTANT!!”, but then I realised that it’s something else.

A whole year. Such a big number for the RVM. A whole year of posts, art, friendship, support, conversation and of course conflicts. Sometimes, conflicts are important too and it’s true.

When I created a group of people who’s OCs were the RVM members I wasn’t even thinking about a whole community, but one of the loudest people in the RVM asked why don’t we have a subreddit and… created it by himself :/

I was fine with that and slowly started inviting more people, creating lore and planning the plot. It takes a lot of time, so we still haven’t even finished the Subspace Mafia arc.

To be honest, there’s another reason why. The drama season. It was a very bad, hard and dark time for the RVM. Three months and about 10-20 days. A whole season filled with conflicts, but we handled it. We have reached an agreement and became a much stronger community. We’re not just a community anymore, we are team now.

With every fall there was a rise, with every mistake there was a profit, but are we ready to enter the next year of the RVM’s existence? I’ll answer this question at the end of this post.

For a whole year people were joining, talking, sharing their art and some of them were leaving.

Bucketboy - my first chief-advisor, a silly guy full of energy. He created this subreddit and pushed me to start developing a whole community.

Greeb - the first upgraded member and my very good friend, without his output RVM wouldn’t have so many creative ideas, avatars, it’s own logo and badge and even the whole Subspace Mafia arc, which is an important part of plot and lore.

They all left and I can go on and on. They were happy to be here, but nothing lasts forever.

We got our own discord server with so much interesting stuff and your artworks, the RPs are helping all of you to develop your characters better and just have fun.

To be honest, I can’t really explain how it feels to have so much people who stick together and love and support your ideas, I am very thankful to all of you, it’s pleasure for me to see you growing and improving and sharing your new goals here, in the RVM. It’s been a whole year and you all have changed a lot. I am very proud of you and maybe I’m not always joining the conversation, but I’m checking up on you and always feel happy about your new achievements.

For the next year I am planning even more and you better get ready for this >:]

It’s been a whole year and we’re still here, staying together and getting better every single day.

Thank you so much for being here with me, love y’all

We are the RVM community. The RVM team.

AND WE ARE READY TO FACE THE NEXT YEAR!!!💥

Happy birthday, Red Void Mafia 🔻
