Dear friends, happy holidays!

[Vanessa]

Dear friends, I hope that you'll pass really good holidays and that the new year will bring you all the nice things you want: love, a gratifying job, friendship, health and comfort.
Here are my resolutions for the new year:
as soon as the set with our winner Toonaxe will be done, I'd like to dedicate myself to the new avatars for the royal members and the poker party; moreover the 2009 will see me busy with the following projects: maps for PBB (Blue Manor, Delight Castle and Bon Bon), Kommy's strip tease and many new cameos!
To the new Royal Members; don't worry, there's space for everyone and you all will have your appearance, I just can't tell you in advance exactly when, but you all will be inserted in PBB.
For the rest we'll see, I can't just tell you all the surprises in advance.
Thanks to everyone for following us in this year 2008, for the praises and commentaries that I've read with pleasure in the messageboard. I can't answer every time, but know that when I read your appreciation you fill me with satisfaction and give me the strength to go on with enthusiasm and dedication.
This forum is splendid thanks to you, even if sometimes you go OT we never had to intervene as moderators because you're all very polite, ironic and respectful, and you even know how to moderate yourselves (I'm still laughing for the slap to Ronald, the pie fight and the answers to Sexymanz XD) and you always intervene to help the new members, welcoming them, letting them feel at ease and giving them explanations and informations (as in the recent post by Johnny).
You let me feel a great affection.
You've been real gentlemen with the ladies (from the elegant and witty ways in which you courted them) and generous with friends (as happenned with Xebulon), you offered great support to the site with suggestions (Foxonian's organ and Gantros's initiative for Zone) and you also pointed out to us the infractions of pirates (Labrn always kept us updated).
It was a wonderful year! And the next will be even better.
By now I think I know you all and I consider you real friends and guests of Bon Bon.
Thanks for making my comic alive becoming its comprimaries and interacting with my characters.
When somebody asks me "who's that vixen?" I answer "She's Kommy! And she really exists! She's a doctor!" or "That's Tursi, the captain, he's real too! You can meet'em all in the forum." and I tell my friends "Labrn is the brother of Mystic, a princess exiled from Aldebaran" or even "Chessy is purple because she's a Cheshire Cat, what's wrong with it? She really exists too."
In short... by now for me PBB is real. Whoever nabs illegally the comic without knowing the forum won't understand these things and won't be able to recognize the characters or understand the situations; which won't let him appreciate PBB as much as we do. Therefore the forum is really important because it's rich of informations hidden in the topics and it's an integral part of the site and the comic.
Be proud of this participation as I am.
A thousand thanks! Happy 2009!

An individual with your talent and dedication deserves every compliment they receive. PBB stands alone admist a sea of dischord amongst adult sites. You have every right to be proud.

Congratulations, Miss Santato!

Happy Holidays to you as well, and if all go according to plan... I'll be here until next year and beyond to share it with everyone.

Thanks to you too, Ronald, wherever you are!

I can't wait to see what you have in store for all of us Vanessa! Your artwork is stunning and the world you have created does feel like it's real and I think that's why I like being here so much.

I have only been a member for a couple of months but ever since I got here everyone's made me feel very welcome and it's been a blast and a nice retreat to visit the forum and see what's going on.

So Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays

Here's to moving into the new year together!

Don't forget Vanessa, you are the one who made all of this possible! With tons of help from Ronald and Martin, of course( If I left someone out who deserves credit, my deepest apologies).

I can't wait for all the new things that you have planned for in the new year.

Happy holidays to everyone!

I think I speak for everyone when I say we all appreciate the time and effort you give to make PBB such an enjoyable experience for all of its members, Vanessa.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everyone. And Happy Kwanzaa, Hanukkah or whatever else you might celebrate.

A beautiful post, Vanessa, thank you, and Roland, and the rest of the hardworking cast behind the scenes for a top quality production that encourages all of us to immerse ourselves. It's wonderful that this immersion provides a feedback loop to inspire and evolve BonBon far above just a comic.

I look forward to the new surprises and projects of 2009 (maybe just including that race, Mr Tearlach). As well as the continued banter of the ladies and gentlemen of this forum!

I've grown quite fond of the members here, and though I often have trouble keeping up with the posts, BonBon is one of the few forums I check often. I hope all of you have a wonderful Holiday season and will see you all in the new year!

((Um... I know I'm new here, well... to the forum at least... but, that's so awesome! I've roleplayed a lot with my friends, and it is so weird-fun how characters you come up with all-of-a-sudden get a life of their own So... um... I can totally see that.))

((So... I hope I don't sound like I'm repeating everyone else, but awesome work to the entire PBB staff. And... thank you for making me feel really welcome, and not really awkward.))

Ever since I joined both Bon Bon and the forum comunity, I've been able to come out of a very nervous shell and be who I really am without people telling me to get lost or worse. I owe a lot to the staff fo inspireing me to go as far was to try and write a history behind Leon Silvercross, my charicter, and I really hope to even publish my story some day.

But I also owe a lot to the folks here, be they royal members or not, for always helping me ether have a great and fun time with pie fights, or to offer support to those who are down on their luck. This comunity helped me grow as a person, and unlike MANY forums I've visited in the past, I don't regret a single second of being here.

Happy holidays guys; Here's to 2009 being a bigger blast than this year!

Ahh, the occasional pie fights ... (one of our lovely artists here should definately make a picture of this *gg*).
I'm looking forwad to 2009, I've met some quite interesting and funny people here, read the stories (and loved the plot) and tried to beat the gem swap games (still no successful *gg*). I'm really glad that I spend the money to join PBB
So let's celebrate our holidays and then start again a new, exciting year of PBB in 2009

To all the active members of PBB boards I wish you a very merry Christmas.

And to all those lurkers who can't seem to post due to RL constraints a wish all the same.

*hangs the 10 month member sign around my neck and goes back to being just an observer as RL claims my time yet again*

[Foxonian]

Vanessa,the site is one of the best I know of and I am pleased that I was able to contribute to both the comic and this forum in a small way over the last year.I wish you a Very Merry Christams and look forward to seeing your plans for PBB in the coming new year! ^.^

[LabrnMystic]

Never has there been a site that I've ever been more proud to be a part of, then here at Pleasure Bon Bon.

Don't you worry Vanessa, I shall continue my watch as best I can, though I can't do half as much without Ronald's help.

Many good times and unexpected, but fond memories have been spawned here, both in the forum and in the comic. As I've always stated, I'll stay a member here until I've lost the means to do so.


Happy Holidays to all, and a toast to the success and continuation of this site.

The was the first forum type site I ever joined and it has been the only one I have remained part of for very long. I have been often gone over the years and yet whenever I return I am always welcomed warmly. I truly enjoy being part of this site and will remain so for as long as I can. And so I add my thanks to those who have already done so though I do not have the skill to express it as eloquently as they.

[Xebulon]

Belated Happy Christmas and early Merry New Year.

Like Xebulon, I've been busy with other things and I only check the site once a week. I didn't realize so much happened... The new Santa Betty puzzle image is extremely sexy.

Anyway, I also want to wish everybody a belated Merry Christmas, and I hope everybody has a Happy New Year.

[Mystic]

Though a bit difficult to put together, at least for me.


Its been an honor and a treat to know you Vanessa. Its beyond flattery for me anytime you place me in a cameo or an image. I still get overjoyed and filled with emotions every time I look upon that little comic you did over Ronald, Gantros and I, though I do always feel a bit guilty when I don't see Ronald around here for awhile. I still half feel his pride was hurt a bit by that comic.
