This one's for Steve.
I don't
think most Wittians realize how hard Steve works to keep this
up and running for us. Did you guys know that this is just his
hobby, he doesn't get paid? He still has a regular job. He
manages this whole website by himself, do you know how much
work that must be? And he listens to us. We wanted a chat, we
got a chat. We wanted to be able to not see the quotes about 1D
or nutella or whatever ones bothered you, he gave us a way to
make that happen. He redesigned the entire website to make it
better and easier for us. He noticed all the fighting because
some people don't like quotes that other people post, he
gave us a way to just stop being able to even see the quote,
therefore stopping the fights before they start. He made it
easier for us to edit our profiles, change our profile
pictures, edit our quotes. And what do we do with his hard
work? We take it all for granted. We start pointless arguments
over Nutella or One Direction or jocked quotes or how things
are taken from Tumblr, we bully each other in the most awful
ways, we argue over everything. Our own Witty
sisters&brothers have killed themselves because of bullying
done on here. I don't think that's what Steve's
intent of this website was. I think of him as a second dad, I
really do. I'm not saying that everyone on here is a bully,
because I don't think that at all. I've met some of my
best friends on here. I don't think Steve really knew what
Witty would become when he first started it. "Witty
Profiles is the internet's largest collection of famous
quotes, poetry and funny status messages to put in your online
profiles." No. Witty is more than just a collection of
quotes, poetry, and funny statuses. It's more than just a
website, it's a community, it's a second home, it's
a venting space, it's like a best friend that's always
there to listen, no matter when. & sometimes, that's
all you really need. Someone to listen.
Steve, your hobby saved my
life.
Thank you.
