Icon10 TRF Moderators

I just wanted to take a moment to thank our hard working moderators here on TRF. I recently had an issue here on the forums and Ken (steelerfan) was more than happy to help me and sorted out the mess in a matter of a few minutes.

I wanted to say how much this gesture of concern and doing the right thing made me feel. I have now become a full pledge member because now more than ever I feel a sense of community and comrodery here on TRF. This is what TRF is all about and I look forward to meeting more people from our community and wanted to properly thank our moderators for their time and patience.

I would like to clear up any confusion any of my previous posts may have caused. The Mods are all the finest, most decent group of proffesionals I have ever had the pleasure of being associated with....

You can get further with a kind word AND a stick than you can with either one on it's own...

Ken really is one of the best and all the guys do a great job of allowing us enough rope to hang ourselves (and kicking the stool away when needed!)

Thanks for the kind words of support all

I have learnt so much from Steve and the mods here since Ken and I joined them.

The TRF mods are in a class by themselves.

Not sayin' WHICH class or which bus they took to get there, but regardless: they're awesome!
