@Reefer Deez and @Billldg You go reefers!

I kind of feel like I got the hostility award by default? Is it just me or anybody else feeling overshadowed? lol...

Oh well, I guess I'll have to try harder to overcome like @Reefer Deez and @Billldg have done. Congratulations

Thank you everyone! This community has helped me in so many ways! This really means alot to me and I really appreciate it!
I rmeebr when I first signed up to R2R I was so shy and nervous I never even posted a meet and greet post and everyone has been so kind and polite to me I feel right at home here. So I like to try and make everyone feel like family and welcome as much as everyone did for me! I don't get on as much as I would like to due to work and home life but I always at least try to say hello to all the new people

Congratulations @Billldg it's an honor to get this award with you!

Is there an award for most quoted messages in a post

And regardless of how often you are on, what matters most is the impact you leave while you're here. Making others feel welcome here I believe is the most important thing all of us can do. It promotes healthy discussions, a positive atmosphere for people to feel comfortable to ask questions, which is what this forum is all about. Being new and nervous to ask what may be what some newbies think are silly questions can be nerve wracking. Finding the right place to ask those and feel comfortable doing it is critical because it can mean the difference between a thriving beginner experience and a bunch of dead creatures with a kijiji add posted not much later. So keep doing what your doing helping turn this forum in to a family, one post at a time.
