@hisownsidekick, welcome to the club! I would've welcomed you earlier, but I was having a few issues with this site not loading on my Google Chrome, so I'm using DuckDuckGo for the first time in my life right now 🤣. I myself lurked for almost two and a half years before making an account a few months ago.
Hi all! Like @supermarido, I also have decided to join the community after using this site for years as a resource for info and reviews. I've always respected the fact that this community is pretty big and active, but still well-moderated and overall, pretty positive and respectful.
Welcome to the forum hisownsidekick! Nice to meet you too.
I'm glad to read that I somehow motivated you to take this step... As you said above, it is indeed "ex-lurker-friendly"
@supermarido Haha, it was more like when I came across this thread and decided to introduce myself, I read your introduction and realized you'd started it almost exactly the way I wanted to start mine, so I wanted to acknowledge that and say hi as I said hi to everyone else. People have been so friendly so far!
@hisownsidekick that's why I said "somehow". I've always believed that we have a great community here but sometimes we are too lazy, at least in my case, to do something as simple as signing up, that any small push, even the most unexpected, can make a difference. But I don't mean that this push was because of me. Sometimes it's just something in the air
@supermarido Ah, I see what you mean. For me, joining the community is one of many little changes I've felt like making in my life after losing a family member last year. So, a big push in general, I guess, that led to lots of little things changing, if that makes sense.
