Whose posts/advice do you love to see here on R2R?

[Fish Fan]

Sorry @Fish Fan , I tend to agree with @BristleWormHater on this one.

Wow, that means a lot coming from you brother! Thank you much for your nod here :-)

 

[Kasrift]

I'll second everyone mentioned.

I love @ISpeakForTheSeas deep knowledge of all the different creatures.

@tbrown is a solid person I'm sure we would all grab a beer with.

@billyocean and @VintageReefer 's love for Meridians and their knowledge on different things is inspiring.

@6t4nova and @evilexotica have the best cars and keep things lively for shooting the breeze.

@stoney7713 has great experience and insight and can print things for people, much love.

@Thuan 's generosity is infectious. She's always helping out the newbies in the SBB thread with stuff.

Tons others. The forum is a great place for learning and laughs. Fun to see the next generation get into the hobby as well, like @stE25wy14 .

 

[lubeck]

This is just a few of many.

@SunnyX , @Paul B , @steveweast, @Dan_P , @Randy Holmes-Farley ,@jda

Is this a shout-out thread? Why am I so late to the party? Oh right, I'm fashionable, d'uh.

In that case, I have to shoutout to #Smorgasbord and of course #Smorgasbadafterdark , special shout-out to @00W and High Secretary Chancellor @luis angel (sorry @tbrown Luis is the only one with Chancellor status, but hey you got a shout-out too!). Seriously, if there's an issue, someone from this corner of the forumverse will have the answer or they will all band together to figure it out.

For me, because I have been doing this for awhile, it is about kindred spirits. Others that have been doing this for a while (a very long while). Well, we sometimes have a different take on reefing. I respect their input or thoughts. Those thoughts may not align with mine, but that is ok. I know that it is their true input and not some rhetoric of others. It also helps me compare my thoughts with theirs, searching for new ideas or solutions.
Because there are so many inspirational people like @Paul B, or mentors like @JulianSprung I will not mention any names, you know who you are...

 

[i cant think]

There are way too many to name. We have the humble experts whos advice I really value.
@i cant think and @Miami Reef being top of that list. Oh and @littlefoxx who thankfully has taken the eel person baton from my feeble inept hands!

But how about some of these people who make this forum feel like family? The people who welcome everyone and in some cases seemingly follow and support sooo many build threads. People like:
@fishguy242
@tbrown (you make all the rest of us look bad)
@Fish Styx
@JoJosReef
@Stang67
@Mschmidt
@Goaway

And the rising stars like @mjszos and @BristleWormHater

Apologies to those I've forgotten and I know it's many

Thankyou, and I have to 100% agree with that list - oh, and obviously you!

 

[Stang67]

You all know who you are. #Heathens #cronie.

oh and rip clean man and badge hoarder dont want to forget you guys. Jk
