MR sure is a different forum from the one I joined back in late '06. I'm not in the top tier of oldest members around, but I do remember when a lot of these now inactive posters were very much up and coming, making a big name for themselves. These days, they've all but disappeared. Even more so whom were not in the "Top 50", but still very well known and loved, have come and gone in my time here. It's sad, even though I didn't know these posters on a personal level, their influence and legacy left behind still kinda tugs at the heartstrings. Being a member here since the tender age of 13, these forums have raised me in a way, and y'all are near family to me.
Bah, nostalgic and self-indulgent ramblings aside, congrats to the diligent and hard-posting members that have made it up there and to those who continue to keep it up, somehow.
