Default My Anniversary here on AGF

This is post number 1500 for me.
I joined December 2011, so just a few weeks shy of 6 years.

I have a couple observations I'd like to share, and invite your comments.

Lets start with gratitude.
Thank you.
First of all to the Moderatators, both past and present, who have kept/keep a watchful eye on things.
Any unruly activities get dealt with promptly, allowing this to be a pretty safe sandbox to play in.
That is no small thing in our current world.
I am grateful.
And I can hear the applause and affirmations from the rest of you from here.

And thanks to you, the members, again both past and present, who have patiently helped me with my questions,
and graciously listened to my views and opinions.
And to those I've bought/sold/traded with...some of whom I converse with regularly as friends.
I've not had one transaction that was contentious or adversarial.

Yes, I've been annoyed a few times, have taken sabbaticals of months a few times.
I've shaken my head laughing right out loud and wondering how and where some of the crazycoolfun humorous comments come from...some of you are hilarious!!

Yes, this thread could have waited til Thanksgiving next week, but I wanted to make my milestone post one of gratitude today.

Thanks to you all for making this my favorite place to hang out.
Tim

Hey Wood,

I joined the same year you did! Glad to have you here... we're an entertaining bunch, aren't we?

Here's to your next 1500... and good music and good guitars! Before you know it, it'll be 15,000.

You have posted on an online forum of total strangers over a THOUSAND times? What a colossal waste of time! That is, unless you're enjoying it, if you're helping someone or learning yourself, you're posting here instead of getting into trouble elsewhere, or any number of other reasons people enjoy hanging out here. In that case, Congratulations on passing this mile marker. Thanks for being an active part of what makes this place such a nice community!

Tim, what an awesome post - way to celebrate your milestone! I've been pleased to get to know you, enjoy your posts (and humor) with their thoughtful observations. You're one of the folks that makes AGF a fun place to hang out and a wonderful community.

Congratulations, and may you have many more years (and thousands more posts) as you continue your guitar journey!

Tim,

Congrats on the "big number". I, too, have enjoyed our "conversations" about all things guitar over the years.

Congratulations Tim, a great milestone and good words to celebrate it. I'll get there soon!

I like Cotten's post about strangers too, and the really good thing is that a lot of those 'strangers' become friends.
