While I haven't been here for a substantial time, I can very well say I have strong feelings for this forum. I've been on quite a few forums, and in each occasion when I joined said forum, I was rarely welcomed/and or rediculed. It was very painful, and caused me to be somewhat of an outcast. I thought just about every forum was filled with immature jerks who have nothing better to do than to make others feel bad for their own enjoyment.
Then, not 2 hours ago, I joined this forum, and was welcomed instantly by so many people. I honestly did not expect it in the slightest. And not only did they welcome me, but they also talked to me. Right after, I went to a metal thread. Instead of being rediculed, I was welcomed there was well. Then I see a "review" by a user name Dragonshy about this forum. I cannot agree with him more.
The community that this place has is something extremely special, I can already see that. I am very proud to be apart of something like this for once. Expect to see me here a long time, as I have never felt welcomed like I have on this very forum. That is what I love about this forum.
You guys. Thanks for making a newbie feel welcome!
