Ten years on Treasurenet: Giving thanks

[Mackaydon]

Yesterday, I past a milestone; 10 years of posting on Treasurenet.
At this point, I want to take a time out to give thanks.


Thanks to Mark for creating such a great site; and to his successors in maintaining (and improving) this site.Thanks, also to the endless number of members who have offered challenges- requesting identification, history and value of found objects; it has been a true pleasure to have been helpful with some of those challenges.


Know that each challenge has given me pleasure; perhaps as a means to momentarily escape from some drama/trauma going on in my life or the challenge of just wanting to be helpful and bring some closure to a member asking for assistance.


Above all, though I may not have ever met you, I feel that I have developed friendship with many of you. Tonight, I'll lift a glass of my favorite Merlot and give a toast to each of you--and to being able to hang in here for another ten years of enjoyment.

All my best,
Don MacKay

Congrats to you. I don't know how long I've been on here, guess I'd better check. Ah yes, I see it right there, it's only been 4 years, wow, seems longer than that.

Congratulations Don! As I have witnessed, you and your powerful Kung Fu are one of the most valuable members we have on this site, period.

Congrats Don! You are a great asset to the site for sure in pursuing answers to riddles regarding objects.

You know, you have a point here. Perhaps there should be a way for TNet to honor exceptional members. Maybe "banner" type vote on a member's contribution to the forums. People like Don need to be recognized in some way, and there certainly are others.

Let's hear from the moderators about this.

A gifted CM can be worked out...

 

[DeepseekerADS]

Does Don even want a CM....

 

[Mackaydon]

DeepseekerADS,
Honestly, I don't know what I'd do with it, though I certainly appreciate the generous offer.
Don.........

Don, my hearty Congratulations on your 10-year Anniversary here on Treasurenet! Wow, 10-years?! Tough skin, soft and giving heart. Here's to another 10-years!

it is my understanding that after 10 years one gets three months off from posting
