Back and better than before

Ah yes, looking back 5yrs ago in all these uploads, I can't help but cringe. Back then, I had no idea how to act in this community. I lacked maturity. It's a window into my awkward past.
But in the span of 5yrs a lot has changed, and for the better too. My artwork has improved, my manners and social maturity has improved, and I'm no longer the attention-seeking, jealous, weirdo that I used to be.

Now that I have been convinced to return to IB, I look forward to uploading and interacting with peeps here on inkbunny and growing my community a bit more. Not as the guy I used to be, but as TeamRocnKammy.

It will take some time, but I'll be slowly fixing up my profile and updating it with my more modern works. In the meantime, I hope you don't mind my cringy ass stuff from the past. XD

Final note: For those who I have interacted with in the past and if I had said anything wrong or made you uncomfortable in any way, I sincerely apologize. Things are different nowadays, I'm a totally new person, and I'll make sure it will not happen again. My desire is to be respectful and share things that people will enjoy. If I do slip up, do not hesitate to let me know. I want to make absolutely sure that I don't make that mistake again.

Thank you! XP
I'll be certain to work on providing even better artwork than I did in the past. Looking back at my old artwork in my gallery, I can't help but cringe tbh. XD
But on the bright side, it's also a really good reminder of how far I've come!

There's nothing wrong with cringe hehe. As the saying goes, "I am cringe, but I am free!"

To me that's one of the joys of Inkbunny, this is a site where there is a great deal of freedom, a place to be fun and playful.

True that. It makes for some good silliness too. XP

On the note of being on Inkbunny, it's a lot better than FA, which seems to be lacking in features. The only thing it has going for it is a larger userbase, but that's probably dwindling after recent events. Lol

I'm one of those who are migrating out of FA, but but it's not like I was active there anyway. ^^; It was such a drag to upload there because I couldn't upload in bulk. Not to mention the lack of a blacklist system.

FA is larger, but it's one of those things where larger isn't always better. DeviantART for example is much larger than FA, but having such a large userbase is only helpful if others know you exist and actively engage. So on Inkbunny, it might be medium sized compared to FA, but I think there's a higher level of engagement once you get connected with folks. FA from my past usage is more akin to talking to a wall, you can hear noises on the other side but unless you have a dedicated following already then it's hard.
Although same with IB to be fair as well.

Yup, that sounds about right. I plan to hopefully shoot for daily uploads here and try to be more engaging. I suck at socializing so I may experience moments of burnout here and there, but I try my best to keep contact when I can. XP
