Wait I'm confused now, I thought you like already showed up in the camp thread to be in the game or am I like mixing you up with super heroes?

Introduction Oliron

I thought you were already on board in medieval. I think I counted you as one of the members that are in the wagon.

Thanks for the help guys, I'm glad I made it. Like I said I just noticed the game was under way again and thought you all left me behind.

This is really great! It means a lot to me to receive this Award.

When I first introduced myself to this community I was lost. I had no idea what I was doing. I was angry a lot about not being able to express myself to people. Not being able to get my point across.

I didn't have a job and was struggling with many things. I remember walking down the sidewalk during the winter and thinking of this site to calm me down. Going over in my head different topics that were being discussed and plotting my responses. I expected to find great resistance to what I said. Instead I found people with open ears and insightful opinions of their own.

I did join for the RPG factor but quickly was pulled into the discussions.

At this community I was able to find my voice in a way. I felt as if there was accountability to what was being said. That accountability filtered a lot of the negative things I would add into my conversations and allowed me to focus on the content in an intellectual way, instead of a "I must win this argument" way.
It's the people of this community that allowed me to discover that in myself.

I still get the urge to need to have the final word but I'm working on that.

It may sound over the top but this community has changed who I am as a human being. It is a collection of people discussing topics but to me it is more. It is a place for me to grow and learn in a way I can't seem to find anywhere else.

I really appreciate this honor and hope to have many more years here, thank you.


PS: Oh, and it's really helped me with my spelling.
