It's good you were able to find the humor. Of course, I wasn't hiding it. I enjoy laughing my problems away. It's never the end of the world right.
I know what it's like to be new here. I'll never forget it. It's not easy and I'm happy about that because simple participation awards are not the answer either. There needs to be an incentive for those passionate enough and climbing a ladder is the answer. Earning a following is incredibly meaningful and has a lot of value in itself. Good to hear you can already see it.
