Time flies... 2013 was my join date, and PF has been my only active forum since then. I really appreciate the virtual community we have built here.

Thanks guys for making this place an oasis for us newcomers.
Wish I had know about P-F back when it started.
There is one place I've spent a lot of years on, actually from before day one, which is bladeforums.com:
I hope I'll have as many years among all you fine folks.Blues

There's nothing civil about this war.
My hope is the same. You have spent half the time here that I have, yet you have contributed infinitely mas.*
The reason I typed mas is because I can hear my wife speaking to her mother in Spanish. My brain was told not to type it but it was almost like auto generate.
Muchas gracias señor, por todas las historias sobre usted.
This place has been a remarkable blessing for me to have stumbled upon. If I had continued solely at the other boards, I’d likely still be an over-confident and under-informed rank amateur at all this shooting stuff. Don’t get me wrong I’m still not the greatest but this place showed me I was barely on the beach, forget having a toe in the water.
I was (and at times still am) overly opinionated with ignorance, but this place got me started down a more knowledgeable path. I will forever be grateful and indebted to this forum. It’s the only one I participate on anymore, too much derp elsewhere.
