I want to give thanks to a few people in this post. The first person I want to thank is the person who invited me to TPS(name withheld as I do not know if he wants it known or not) who as a staff member at my favorite tracker has done so much to help me in the years he has been staff at that tracker. He has gone above and beyond what a staff member really needs to do IMO in helping members out, and when I once asked him via PM about music/movie trackers, he sent me an invite(after making sure I understood if I screwed up at them, I suffer his wrath 
) to an awesome movie tracker, and also an invite to TPS and an invite to a music tracker. I decided to try out the TPS invite first and forgot about the music tracker, but honestly I am glad, because thanks to him I had found a new home to post thoughts about anything freely without needing to go to multiple boards to post at, which is rare to find. So I give him thanks for that much help he gave me, thanks to him, I have found other places to download things I want, and I will forever be in debt to him for what he has done for me.
Which then leads to the other thanks I have. To the current/former staff at TPS. When I joined back in July, I immediately knew I liked this place, and the free minded ness that the staff allows to be posted is a testament to the staff of this place. I have never been a member of a forum where political discussion stays flame free for the most part like this place has, or where people can rib each other in the IRC and not get offended and makes anyone feel welcome is a great accomplishment. To be picked as an interviewer for TPS after only being here a few months was a great honor as well. When I applied, I figured it would be looked over and passed on, but yet the staff picked me to become an interviewer, and for that I am thankful, because I have had loads of fun doing it and also some misery, but that is to be expected.
And lastly I want to thank each and every member of TPS who is active in either IRC, or on the boards, because without you, this place would not be as great as it is here. I have gotten some invites to trackers that I have liked, some I applied for, others just came out of the blue, and I am grateful for those as it has broadened my horizons when it comes to whatever it is I download from those trackers, whether it be music from 1 tracker, or HD movies from another.
And I thank Mike3775 for making TPS such a fun place to visit and post. Anyone ever go to forums (not necessarily torrent-related) where it’s kinda dead and the only active threads are ones like “Count to a million” and “What is the last movie you watched?” I assure you TPS is not like that at all. With prolific posters like Mike3775, the forum is active 24/7, with interesting topics for everyone!
