I agree with this post and all replies 100%. As others have expressed, I too dissappeared from the boards for a few months there... just felt like I lost the connection I have had because a number of the guys on here I who I talked to the most weren't posting as much either. A lot of the petty crap just got to me to the point that I ignored my NES collection for awhile and got into arcades. Don't get me wrong, the same crap will happen everywhere but this site really is a special place to just goof around and be around others who understand this strange addiction we call a hobby. Thanks for the post Dain... I look forward to another fun year like I've had with the past year that I've been a member here.
(edit) As Josh said, it was really NGD's "Happy Camper" thread that got me back here more often... and now I have the Gameboy collecting bug so I'll probably stay around for awhile.
