Recently I saw that I eclipsed the 3000 post barrier and I realized: Wow I'm really a loser.
On a serious note, even though I'm a loser when I found this place in 2004 it was after I had learned poker during spring break, when me and my friends played $1 buy in, 5c/10c blinds. I felt like I was quickly improving at poker, even though i wasnt, and the mentorish guys at FTR helped a lot.
This forum was bustling a year later. There were posts every two seconds, I'd regularly get 10 -20 replies on my newbie posts that we now see getting around 5 responses.
Now 2 and a half years later I'm pretty sure I've visited this website every day. This website has ruined my life, it is a horrible black hole, its made me a degenerate, and its made me lend money to people ive never seen before.
And oh its also been so sweet. All the people here have been awesome, from past to present. I just hope we can keep this awesome user base going and we can all become tight nit.
I used to be the guy asking for the advice (I still am), Now I'm taking the responsibility to help the new players (i try ) at this site so they can become another..... me, gabe, rilla, irish. You know, so they can become hooked and become good players.
2 months ago or so I was offered a job by Eric and I just didn't think there was any sweeter job in the world.
You guys are awesome and here's to having awesome lives and making mad monies!
-Danny

This is important. Why don't these posts get more than 5 responses these days? Let's all try to post more n00b advice.
