    2. This will make the 8th anniversary I've been around for, and I only started trying to actively participate last year!
      I always look forward to this time, since a lot of the lurkers come out to play. :D And I get to see everyone's creativity.
      Thank you DOA for being here for all of us. ^^ Happy birthday!

    5. Crazy how time flies! Happy birthday DoA! Thanks for being a great resource to the hobby that keeps me sane. I think. I guess that's debatable.

    6. I've been here since 2014 but this is the first time I've caught a celebration! I only had one or two dolls a year or so ago but now I'm up to 8 and growing!

    8. I'm a real newbie and have only known you for a few weeks now but so far I feel VERY lucky to be here and hope your next 13 years are filled with much kindness, laughter, sharing and true joy in collecting.

    9. Well I'm not that active in the hobby any more (you'd never know it to look at the shelves directly behind me at the moment) but I LOVE sticking my head in for the Anniversary! My first arrived home 11 years ago. That was a fast decade and some...
       
      • Cake Cake x 3

      love you, DOA!

    12. Happy anniversary, DoA! You're going to have to start acting more grown up now that you're a teenager.
       
      • Cake Cake x 3
    13. I am a total noob to DoA, but wow, 13! So impressive! Funny, i'm older then you, but I look at you as my mentor XD. Happy birthday DoA!

    14. Happy Anniversary to all the mods and members!
      I've been with you for.....13 years!!!! (and I swear I haven't yellowed much, or maybe it's just evenly distributed)
      I'm one of the originals who remember the Yahoo Groups days. Buying a doll was a treasure hunt, with third parties and bank transfers.
      Wow, times sure have changed.

      Here's looking forward to the next 13.

      • Cake Cake x 3
    16. Happy anniversary DoA! I'm sad abkut all the anniversaries I missed out on during my hiatus, but I'm super excited to participate in the contests and stuff this time. Thanks so much to the mods for putting all this awesome stuff together for us!
      :sumomo:

    17. Congratulations DoA!

      I remember one of the first bjd videos I watched on Youtube was rikkistar talking about her DoA triathalon entry. Don't know if I'll have time to join, but I might try for fun.

    18. 13 is definitely a significant number. Prime number, Fibonacci number, first of the teens, year of a Bat Mitzvah, lucky to fare tredici (Italian), and lots of other things. Personally, I don't think it's lucky or unlucky. I do think it's a pretty cool number, though, because of all the meanings it has for people.

      Happy Anniversary to DoA and Everyone on DoA!
      Cake for everyone!!! :cake: :bcupcake :cake::pcake:cake: :smallcake :cake::bcake:cake: :pcupcake :cake:

    19. It's incredible how much time has passed since I've join DOA. It's always exciting when the Bjd hobbyists have something to celebrate. <3
       
      • Cake Cake x 2
    20. My first celebration here! Congratulations to you on 13 years ! :>
       
      • Cake Cake x 2
    21. Happy Birthday DoA! Bring on the moody teenage years ahead!
       
      • Cake Cake x 2
    22. Happy 13th anniversary! Thirteen was my lucky number it seems. I won a bjd contest a few years back with number thirteen
       
      • Cake Cake x 1
    23. Hee! Wow 13 years already.

      I've always viewed 13 favourably... Though it may be related to the fact that most of the hotels I've stayed in have skipped the 4th floor, not the 13th.

      (In Chinese, the word for Four sounds like the word for death for - those who didn't know why it's considered unlucky.)

    24. WOW 13! thats as old as my little sister :o well happy birthday anyway!!!
       
      • Cake Cake x 1
    25. 13 years? Wow, it must have taken great effort to keep a community going for so long, and with such positive attitudes among the members! I joined DoA only around a year or two, and now a little less newbie. I have learned much and met some new friends through DoA. So I don't know if number 13 is lucky or not, but I know that I'm really lucky to be here. Time to celebrate! Happy birthday! :dance
       
      • Cake Cake x 1
    26. 13 is a good number because it's DOA's 13th birthday! Happy birthday DOA:dance:smallcake:dance!!!
       
      • Cake Cake x 1
    27. Congratulations! Well, of course 13 is a lucky number!
       
      • Cake Cake x 1
    28. 13 is most definitely a lucky number for me!
       
      • Cake Cake x 2
    29. I've been hanging around DOA for so long that I remember when it was a Yahoo group!!!

      Thanks to all our wonderful, dedicated mods who keep things running so smoothly!!!

      I hope to get over my problems posting pics and join in the fun more often.

    30. Happy Birthday DoA! This is my first anniversary celebration with you which I think confirms my theory that 13 is indeed one of my lucky numbers :)

    34. Happy birthday, DoA! :D
      I'm glad that I've been able to spend the past 11 years with DoA (since 2006, wow... it's weird when I put it like that).
      But seriously, this forum has helped me out so much when I joined the hobby at 14 years old. Thank you for putting up with me all these years! :abow:

      • Cake Cake x 2
    40. Happy birthday, DOA! Wow, time flies. August is my 12th anniversary of being a member here and September 6th will be my first doll's 12th birthday. Can't believe I joined that long ago! Very special. :')
       
      • Cake Cake x 2
    41. I just got right on time (Slightly new). Number 13 is such a lucky number for me, same as black cats ... Hope to be able to post some new beauties in my store or maybe just make something for my girls to celebrate that this lovely community exists.
      Congratulations and let's hope the community to keep growing for many more years.
       
      • Cake Cake x 2
    42. Geeze, I've been here nearly 8 years, which practically makes me an old-timer, huh? Happy anniversary, DOA! :dance

      And I am not superstious in the least, so the number 13 had no real meaning for me. Well, I suppose I could be a little suspicious about the number 666. :eusa_pray;)
       
      • Cake Cake x 2
    43. For me, the number 13 is lucky and I can't believe DOA is 13 now, wow time flies! Been here since 2006, time flying :sumomo:
       
      • Cake Cake x 2
    44. First year here ! Congratulation! It's so good to have a place like that. Happy birthday.

      • Cake Cake x 2
    46. Happy 13th DOA!!!
      I am so glad to be here!
       
      • Cake Cake x 2
    47. 13 years already ..... although I have been a member of DoA for so long since 2004.
      I know I am not a very active member until now .
      For me, DOA is giving me a chance to increase my knowledge of this BJD worlld.
      Thank you .
      Happy lucky 13 th anniversary
       
      • Cake Cake x 2
    48. 13 is my all time favourite (and my lucky) number! Maybe this year is DoA's lucky year! :)
       
      • Cake Cake x 2
    49. I've been here since 2005. It's been one heck of a trip and looking forward to more! Congratulations Den of Angels.
       
      • Cake Cake x 2
    50. I kind of like the number 13. I think I've gotten used to paying more attention to it because my birthday is on the 13th of a month, though. I've only been on Den of Angels for a couple of years, but it's been great and I've gotten so much help from the kind people here. Happy 13th, DoA! :)
       
      • Cake Cake x 2
