To all members of Yotsuba,

I hope you all realize.
What happened this CBT was magical.
We will never, ever, recreate this feeling again.
A limited closed-beta with a handful of players.
For one of the most anticipated MMO-remakes in history.
An anime art style with incredible social features that broadly appeals to the average 4chan user.
Mostly no annoying groups or individuals.

This combination of:
1) community
2) relative peace
3) novelty of a new hype game

will never happen again.
You will NEVER meet people this close again.
You will NEVER be in a guild with all these wonderful people again.
You will NEVER warp to guild hall and smile to yourself seeing the usual trio idling.
You will NEVER see the typical Cat and Lico antics in guild chat and smile to yourself again.
You will NEVER smile when you see Noir spam her cute wave emotes again.

most importantly,

This closed beta meetup? Probably the best single meetup and memory I've had in any MMO or game general for a decade.
It was magical, a group of friends you grew mightily close with for two weeks. Complimented against the backdrop of fireworks and an impending server termination.
We will never have this again. This was the last chance for something like this to happen.
There will be no massive, magical meetups to commemorate anything during full release.
Full release will be filled with far too many people as well, the community factor will be gone.
Everyone you've met will splinter off into their own guilds. 1/3rd of people you recognize will remain in your new guild.
You, too, will wander off and make new friends and meet new people, while you forget the old friends from Yotsuba.

At the end of it all, there'll be nothing. When the BP:SR servers die and the opportunity for a meetup such as today's would come to fruition, we'll all be gone already, and the generals will have ceased to exist.

Cherish today, for it might be the most magical night you'll ever experience in an MMO general.
