I don't know. I think it's better to hear it in their own words. And besides the extra effort that someone had to do to say what they needed to say instead of click 5-5-5, shows the more deservedness of the feedback you got.

A celebration of the forum. Lots of cool threads.

"Forum Days" are DoomYoshi's personal "holiday" that apparently occurs when the Off Topics forum retains the same name for 136 to 143 days. No one knows what any of this means.

Because I feel like hearing my own voice, right now, this thread seems to be the right point to ramble.
