I never made a goodbye post because of my business, it was honestly great to roleplay with all of you. I'm not going to make this lengthy because I know that I'll be talking to you guys still since our group text will remain open. I loved every minute of being in this group with you all, and I enjoyed all the characters that came and their players.

I wish you all of the best things in your roleplay life and in your real life. Keep in touch my darlings.

P.S All epilogues that were submitted will be posted up in a bit

So, this is it.

Today is June 1st, which not only marks the fact that we’re already half way through the year, but also that today is the day that Make A Change ends. And truthfully, I wish I had a different word in my mind for this at the moment, because it doesn’t feel like an ending, you know? It doesn’t. And I think, after 2 years and 5 months of being open, it feels more like we’re coming full circle, more than anything else.

When this group started, none of us imagined that it would make it so far. Most groups tend to die within the first few months, and if your lucky, maybe not until it’s been six or so month. I remember every month being celebrated as a giant milestone, because we were all just so excited that it was still going, and that nothing seemed forced, or like we were trying to push through a slump. And sure, we’re had a rough patches in the past, and like all other groups, we have had times where we had to fight to keep the dash moving, but to me, at least, it’s all been easier than it’s come with most groups.

Admining is not an easy task, but even on the bad days, I just want to say that being an admin for this group is one of the easiest times I’ve ever had when it comes to roleplays. And, I’ve said it before, but it’s because we’ve been incredibly lucky to have so many amazing players, both new and old. You guys made it easy to be an admin, and didn’t make it feel like such a tedious task, which I will forever be grateful for.

I just wanted to say one last thank you. Thank you for being a part of the group, thank you for joining us, for no matter how long or short it was, and thank you for becoming part of our family. Out of all the groups I’ve ever been, and will ever be a part of, this will of course be the one I’ll always look back on fondly, and I can speak for both Jenn and even Bree [though she’s said her own parts] when I say it’s the same for them.

Whatever you guys do from here, whether you continue to play out these character’s lives, and take them on many more adventures, or chose to retire them and move on to other groups, or even just take a break, we can’t wait to see where you guys in the future. And hey. We’ve all said it before, but I’m sure one day we’ll find each other in some group again. It may not be a new MAC, but it’ll still be fun if we do.

Before you say ‘Izzie, you’re getting sappy, get on with it’, I only have one last thing to mention. As noted in the ooc blog, I’ve changed the theme on the main for one last time. The character epilogues, once they’re submitted will all be posted on the main, and will be featured on the front of the page, as well as our character page, which will remain in tact.

We hope you’ve enjoyed this journey with us as much as we have. It’s been a long ride, but we really couldn’t have asked for a better way to watch this group grow and develop over the last two years.

Thank you for the memories. We love you all.

Well, it's almost that time.

As most of you know, Make A Change [fondly referred to as MAC] will be ending as a group on June 1st, which is just two days around the corner. Since everyone is busy with life and putting together the ends of their character's times here, I just wanted to give you a gentle reminder, that on June 1st, everyone [or at least, those still with us] should submit something that covers the rest of your character's life, or as much as you want to share. This should include any career changes, any marriages, divorces [if there's anything, though I don't think so], and children, and any major life changes.

As I mentioned in the ooc blog, it doesn't have to be super detailed, and can only cover the next ten years if you so wish, because, well, we don't expect you all to have up until your character's passing planned out. This should just be enough so that we can put it on the main, so that anyone who wants to know where your characters stand [especially if you're no longer planning on playing them, and wish to instead retire them], can look and get an idea of what to expect from their lives. Just something, as they say, to bring everyone back full circle, and to give your character the closure they deserve. After all, a lot of you have been here for a year. Some for two, and some, maybe just close to six month. Either way, no matter how long you've been with the group, we all want to see your character get the ending they deserve, and we're sure you do to.

That being said, we can't wait to read were your characters go next. <3

I feel like I should be saying 'Surprise Bitch, I bet you'd thought you'd seen the last of me', but I'll save that introduction for another day. I'll keep this short, since I've already said my goodbyes as Sugar and as a part of Make A Change. I changed a few things on the main, adding a new playlist and editing some things around (though I'm sure Jenzie will take care of the rest). I know the end is closing in, but at least for me, MAC will go on long after we've stopped posting. At least it will for me. The people, the characters, and the memories will forever be in my heart. I love y'all. I'll be seeing you.

I know lately we've been off the dash quite a bit, both as players and admins, and I wanted to apologize for that. Like it is for just about everyone else, it's definitely a busy time of years. Between last semesters of school, work, vacations, and general lack of motivation, we haven't exactly been around to do things such as update the main, other than our last post here.

That being said, however, the main is now up to date!

RACHEL BERRY is on inconsistent until further notice

QUINN FABRAY is on hiatus through April 28th

KURT HUMMEL is inconsistent until April 20th

NOAH PUCKERMAN is on inconsistent until further notice

Though we're on inconsistent, I do promise that we'll be checking the main and keeping it up to date in the timeliest manner we can. Take a look over it, please, and let us know if there's anything that needs to be changed! Thank you, lovelies!

We've been together for so long so we have to be honest with you all, MAC is our baby, and it will always be our baby; but there comes a time when you know you have to let go of your baby.. You're all our babies really. We love you all but this group is not what it used to be, because our characters have grown into their own people, their lives are planned out, they each have their own paths. It is why we have come to the decision that we will be closing Make A Change because we don't want to see it just fade and die.

We want to give this group a proper ending, to let our characters stories be told. That is why we are not closing today but on June 1st, 2014. By This day we would like you all to have submitted your characters story to where you want to tell it, did they find true love? Did they get a promotion? Just tell the rest of your characters story to where you are content. We will be adding these stories to our character pages, so all our followers can see them. This is not us asking you to give up your characters. We would never ask you to do so, unless you felt that it was time. Us, ourselves, plan on continuing on with Puckleberry's story in a 1x1 form, and we both encourage you to do the same, if you want to do so. However, we would simply love to have recorded what you all see your character lives going on after MAC, just so we can have it archived on the main.

You will forever be in our hearts and these are friendships that we are thankful for. You have all our OOC information so don't think we're not near if you guys ever want to give us a holler. The ooc chatzy and blog will still be open to anyone who wants to still chat in there, and so that everyone can still keep in touch that way as well. If you don't have our numbers yet, please do feel free to ask for them. Or our aims, or any form of communication. We can still roleplay together just no longer in Make A Change, this group has run its course. A lovely one at that. It's time for you all to continue making a change. We love you all. So very much.

Thank you for being amazing.

Much love,

That your admins aren't so timely lately when it comes to our updates and posts and simply doing admin things on here. For that, I just wanted to make a quick post and apologize for slacking off as an admin. Things have been rather busy as of late, in my work life, in Bree's work life and in Jenn's school life, and that's meant that we've been less attentive to the main. I still come on and check it at least once a day to do things such as check for messages and see if there's anything immediate that needs to be addressed, but because of so much happening in my personal life, it's definitely meant that I've cut down on my time here, as well as the other two.

I just wanted to make this post real quick to let you guys know that we're aware of our lesser activity here, and I just wanted to mention that since there's quite a bit of a turnover in my department at work, this trend of only coming online and checking for anything immediate that needs to be addressed will be continuing for a little while, while things get shifted around. I will not be advertising for our open  characters, as it honestly takes too much time that I currently don't have, but as always, please message the main with any concerns or questions you may have. Just because we might not be the most active currently, here or on character accounts, it doesn't mean that we still won't be around.

That being said, I wanted to say thank you to everyone for participating in the reunion, I hope you all had fun. And a big thank you for switching the on going paras over to flashbacks, I really appreciate you guys doing so basically immediately.

I hope you're all having wonderful days! Happy Monday, loves.

I know some of you have asked, and others have probably been wondering as well, and with only a few days until the New Directions' reunion, this is your announcement on how things will happen.

As I'm sure you're aware, March 1st is this Saturday, and this is the day the reunion is scheduled to be. The admins have decided that since everyone is busy and tends to have a lot going on during this week, we will not be doing a chatzy for the reunion. Instead, we will be 'closing' or 'pausing' the dash for two days (Saturday, March 1st and Sunday, March 2nd) like we have with the Brittana wedding and Stevie's funeral. Only pictures, paras, self paras, face to face interactions or facebook/twitter/instagram posts will be allowed during these two days, meaning everyone will be 'offline' so to speak. Please use (and track, if you wish) the tag 'mac reunion 2020' as well as add a link to it somewhere on your navigation so that anyone who wishes to check out posts from it can have an easy access link to it. As far as the reunion itself goes, the former New Directions will have a chance to spend the weekend with Mr. and Mrs. Schuester, as well as their daughter Clare, catching up on the last eight years and finish the celebration weekend on Sunday with a group dinner at Breadstix. All types of posts and interactions with other characters are more than welcome, but please just remember that these posts will be 'offline' ones, and should be treated as face to face interactions, for the most part.

If you have any questions, please just send a quick note to the main, and we'll be happy to clear anything up as best as we can. Other than that, enjoy the reunion!

And though a post was made earlier as well, happy two years, Make A Change! Thank you for joining us on this crazy ride, kids. We couldn't have made it this far without you.
