I've met the best bunch of people on TRF

Just wanted to say thank you for having me as part of TRF.

I've been on the Internet since 1993, starting with a Netcom shell account, and have been in several special interest forums, but I have never participated with such a great bunch people as those that I have met here.

Thanks for having me as part of you family.

Yes, I would say that about 99 percent of trf members are awesome! Sometimes, a couple bad apples seems to reappear but disappear quite quickly when they realize they don't belong here!

I've only been here for a very short time and I can't believe the help and time spent answering my questions by members of TRF. I too have been on the Internet since its inception, moderated bulletin boards and such and find that TRF is the exception rather than the rule when it comes to BBS's. I can also say the same for a couple of other boards that deal with this subject matter. I think you're looking at a different type of user than most boards deal with.

The administrators, the moderation staff and the members of TRF deserve kudos for an outstanding job, an awesome database of information and an atmosphere that welcomes dopes like me.

TRF is certainly the best.
It will be cited in my divorce as a contributing factor.
No other forum that I belong to has anywhere near as many posts/threads by myself.

Hear hear. Well said.

I'm still a noob, but so many times on this forum I have laughed out loud!!

From JJ to err.. Orchi, err... to playing with magnetized balls!!

Plus the wealth of knowledge I have learnt in a matter of weeks.

Plus so many people willing to share their knowledge & help (thanks Jon)

I so look forward to reading this forum at any opportunity.
