Well done, Darthy!Halfway down the stairs Is the stair where I sit. There isn't any other stair quite like it. I'm not at the bottom, I'm not at the top; So this is the stair where I always stop.

Thought I'd revive this little thread.
Basically, you guys (all of you) rock. Just wanted to say that. Thanks for putting up with me and giving me some place to waste my time for almost three years.
A few deserved compliments:
Matrixman - always high quality posts, never an unkind or undeserved word.
Loremaster - not afraid to speak your mind, always eloquent
Avatar- my brother in arms
Cail - a man who sticks to his guns, and a worthy opponent in the Tank.
Lucimay - the nicest newbie in a while
Esmer - the... most interesting newbie in a while
Duchess, Danlo, Fist - the three musketeers (as well as the three amigos, heh)
Lord Mhoram - Dartanion
(basically, the four above feel like neighbors to me, the kind you have over for barbeques, ask to borrow a cup of sugar, drink beers with, etc.)
Alynna, Jay, and Vain - still keeping the lights on
So, yeah, anyway. I'd just go through the member list and say something about everybody if I had the time. Like I said, you all rock the casbaah.

congrats on the award Esmer!But if you're all about the destination, then take a fucking flight.
We're going nowhere slowly, but we're seeing all the sights.
And we're definitely going to hell, but we'll have all the best stories to tell.
Full of the heavens and time.

I didn't know if I was supposed to see this, but I must say I am shocked to be on that list. I really don't know what to say, whether or not saying anything is appropriate (self-aggrandizing?), and don't quite know what it means, or quite how to take it?The Esmer wrote:A few deserved compliments:
Avatar - The Door and The Way (The Esmer felt his presence over his shoulder his first day here and was instantly aware that this One "spoke softly and carried a very big stick!heh. And that "eloquent" "thang". You may also thank the One for "The Esmer's" "over" "use" "of" "quotations" "to" "emphasize" "meaning".
)
The Syl - The Syl, The Bad, and The Ugly(with some Matt Dillon thrown in for good measure), werd up. I still can hear "cool deal" ringing (stinging?) in my ears...(I swear I saw your avatar's lips move and Clint was doing the voice over!heh.) You may also blame The Syl for my "image" problem here....
Cail - a man who sticks to his guns, and a worthy opponent in the Tank. (what more could I add to that? Short & Sweet!(Dad!
ur-bane - An Officer & a Gentleman, knows when and where to "put The Esmer". His signature says it all, and speaks as well of him as he speaks well.
Alynna, Jay, and Vain - still keeping the lights on, and handled The Esmers "problems" (heh)
Honorable Mentions:
The Fist, Prebe, Edge, Wayfriend, The Modest Gentleman, and Sunbaneglasses. Sgtnull? heh. What a clown!
So, yeah, anyway. I'd just go through the member list and say something about everybody if I had the time, too. Like The Syl said, "Sharif don't lii-ike it"!.
It is an Honor regardless, and I hope I can live up to being on such a list. I can assume that means to keep doing what I'm doing, Syl? heh. Anyway, I think The Syl is way cool, the cool way, bruh!

To thine ownself, Esmer, but in moderation. And there's something to be said for going with the flow.
