Perhaps I haven't been the ideal member, I'm one who in 7-1/2 years has only 1600ish posts. I'm not sure that I've ever even started a thread here. If it weren't for my presence in chat over the last few months, it's likely that very few people would even recognize my screen name. Having said that, it was TFP that I turned to when shit hit the fan. TFP was there when I thought nobody would be.
Believe it or not, TFP has changed me. TFP, and it's members have seriously impacted my life. Yes there is one member in particular that I'm very fond of, but it was the very existence of TFP that made a huge difference.
I tend to be the guy that everybody says is quiet until you get to know him. Many would refer to me as the strong silent type.
I will try to contribute a bit more, even if I really don't have a lot to say.
