FAO FishFreek, ReefRunner69 & All - Aquarium Advice

Grant R · 11-14-2002, 05:01 PM

I would just like to take the brief time out to say thanks lads, for the hard work and effort that is clearly put into the site. I was sat there earlier, posting away and expecting answers for granted and it made me feel like the people behind the site, are due a big pat on the back and a lager / beer on me ! If I'm ever in America !

I've learnt so much from the site and it's members and that is v. important to me, especially with something important like fish keeping.

I'm also a regular poster & moderator on another site to do with clubbing, so I kind of know how hard it is to see & appreciate the behind the scenes and background work on the site by the admin / staff.

Anyway, without sounding too much more cheezier, thanks lads and thanks EVERY MEMBER for you're excellent replys, which have seen me through the rocky start up days well.
AquariumAdvice has my full backing.

Grant.

Well said. I owned a forum and had many cursing and angry members which cause a huge headache, therefore you will never receive that dishonor from me. I definitely think that was a very honorable thing you did Grant.

quality members also makes this site what it is.

Oh and btw you need to wait a few years till you come to the states so I can take you up on your offer. The legal drinking age is 21 here.

The way I see it is very simple.

If we educate you. and you help educate someone else then our job was a success. If the person you educate turns around and educates someone else then thats a even bigger bonus.

d9hp · 11-14-2002, 09:19 PM

Man, I love you guys

(Reaches for EMS's Pepsi)

Grant R · 11-15-2002, 04:00 AM

Don't worry, I look 21 !

d9hp · 11-15-2002, 07:26 AM

Got a laminated card that says you ARE 21? Didn't think so, sorry Grant

Grant R · 11-15-2002, 07:40 AM
