Latest Update: October 28, 2001
Wow, its been a long time since I've spoken, hasn't it? Well folks, I was going through some old websites I used to visit, and I ended up at The Worst Sailormoon Pages Ever. Somewhere in there, they had an interview they did with us. Reading it got me to thinking about this site, and I decided to re-visit. I examined everything closely, and decided to update the page with a message. So here it is...
After looking at this site and reading old email, I discovered that I actually missed this place. When I stopped updating a year or so ago, I was bitter and frustrated. We were getting support from other WPR and fans, got nominations for pages, yet members refused to cooperate and the site began to deteriorate. I felt like there was nothing I could do, so I never bothered coming back. I realize now that that wasn't the best way of treating those who enjoyed this site, and for that I apologize. Now, onto my other point...
I believe I want to give this site one more try. I know we don't have a great track record for re-openings, but this may be different. I'm serious this time, and feel that its possible that it can work. If anyone out there is interested in helping me start out again, email me and we can discuess this site. Thanks for reading this, to anyone who is. And hopefully we'll be back soon...

Just a note to visitors: we're not dead yet! The applications, combined with the pressures of school and work, are taking longer to go through than expaected.
However, we will be re-opening soon. I have a feeling the SM community will be "reborn" with the new season being dubbed. With a new crop of pages to review, WPR will have an easier job.
PS: The "a person", who signed our guestbook, what RPG's am I "always in?" I've never signed up for one in my life :P

Well everbody, I've decided not to close the site after all. After two weeks of thinking, I realized I don't want to leave the site half-finished, with all these unopened things in Chibichibi. So I'll be returning with a new team of reviewers. Updates will happen soon, so keep checking back, and thanks to all the letters of support I recieved.

Healer here, folks. Wow, it's been a whole year since I came up with the idea of Kinmokusei. Doesn't seem like it's been that long...
Some of you may have noticed we haven't updated in a while (well, since December 2nd, which is longer than a while). In my last message, I promised bigger and better things from this site, and I guess at the time I was lying to myself and to you all. Well, I guess it's my time to ramble, so prepare for my closing statement...
This WPR was pretty well doomed from the start. It began as another group joining the latest trend in the Sailormoon Community. How many WPR opened during those few months? 25? I don't remember, it's not important. I based the idea from the late s a r, but I guess something set us apart. There were write-ups about us on various webpages, bigger name WPR such as the RPG Busters and the Small Lady linked and supported us. Things were going good for us.
I'm not sure where things started to go wrong. Maybe it was because none of the original members knew each other. Holding applications was probobly not the best idea, but it did produce a good team: myself, Fighter(1), Kakyuu(1) and Maker. We pretended we worked well together, but it was a little different on the inside. Myself, Maker and Kakyuu(1) often participated in group discussions, trying to figure out how to improve our site. Fighter(1) never did. It was almost like he tried to avoid us. After a long time of deliberation, we informed him that he was out of the group. Not the best way to go about it, I know.
So we then had more aplications for the new Fighter, and we got a good choice. However, Fighter(2) told us after one day that she was leaving, so we finally got Fighter(3). In the meantime, Kakyuu(1) had to leave because her parents were getting rid of the internet. So we got a wonderful replacement, and the four of us decided to open the position of Cosmos. I have no idea why we did it. Maybe to have the nevelty of a new member. Who knows.
Cosmos did one review, then dissapeared, as did Fighter(3). Kakyuu gradually faded away, and myself and Maker ceased to speak with each other. Finally, one night I asked her if she wanted to continue the group, and we both decided to put it to rest. It was a hard decison for me, partially because I'm attached to this page and it seems like I'm letting myself down for giving it up.
I would like to thank Fighters 1, 2 and 3; Kakyuus 1 and 2; Cosmos, and Maker. It was fun knowing and working with all of you. I'd like to also thank the Small Lady for your support, and the RPG Busters for your efforts to keep us around. I greatly appreciate it.
In closing, I'm pulling the plug on Kinmokusei. Not because I want to, but because I feel that I need to. I would love to make a fresh start with it sometime, who knows when. It could be in an hour, or in five years. Anyone with questions, comments, or interest in this site can still send it to s_starlights@yahoo.com, I will still continue to check the email every so often.
It's been a great year in the SMC, and I'd like to thank you all for making that possible.
