Hello all,
Just wanted to send a brief heartfelt thanks to all in CP land, ESPECIALLY THE MODS, for the great service here.
First of all, CP is a wealth of information. I know many people both in real life and online, that will ask a question here before looking at other sources, or as the first stop on their journey. That's commendable and inspiring in itself.
Secondly. I spend a lot of time on other boards, more now than ever, and I have to say, CP has one of the most informed and well spoken groups of any of them. So much better than some of the 'premium ones' it's scary.
A lot of us disagree and it even gets heated, but more often than not, it's thought out and well delivered. And, at least compared to the other boards, respectful.
I went to another board, trying to preach some of the ideals that Ro graciously reminded us of a few months ago, and was all but laughed off. With the internet being such a tool for information and learning, I appreciate that we can use it as such here at CP, instead of letting it become a cesspool of pissing matches and people making fun of one another.
I know it gets really heated here sometimes, and I can be a culprit. But being around the block, this is really the most mature group, and in many ways, most enlightened group, I have met.
A huge shout out to the mods who keep everything on track and keep the bullpoop to an internet minimum. Good job guys.
Everyone else I just want to say thanks for the experience, even if we have crossed swords. The members here are really what makes this site great!
If you have any heartwarming stories or accolades along this line, feel free to add.
