No idea where he went but he used to be very active, commenting on everybody's mailday. And his Carrie collection was pretty cool to go along with his massive amount of Exquisite cards. From what I can see in his profile, he hasn't logged onto OCT for almost 2 months now. Maybe he went on a round the world trip!!
LOOKS LIKE HE WONT BE BACK, JUST READ A BLOG BY HIM.
Has an end.....
Gee whiz, it only seems like yesterday, in how I joined the boards on here and was picking up my first ever Exquisite auto patch card.
Man, how far how I have come and this board and it's members as well, how far everyone has come. And also, how far some have gone also....
Sitting here, only a few weeks ago, making 10,000 views on my sale/trade thread. And heck, I don't even sell or trade that often. And now, nearly 10,000 posts as well. My lordy, boy does time fly.
Though, even with time flying by, there has been so much filled into my time here and the hobby. Back almost 4 years ago, I didn't even know anyone collected cards anymore in Australia, little lone, how far they had come and stuff. I mean, the whole auto patch thing
Shops had long disappeared, but the people and the community, surely didn't.
Then, Carrie came along
For better or worst.... it wasn't all plain sailing here that's for sure.
And don't even mention Auto Lettermans, what was I thinking Ha ha ha ha
Though, with all the happiness shared with everyone on here and around the world, you always have the idiots and trouble makers whom don't like you for whatever reason it suits them.
The names of people barred for silly and stupid behavior over time, or ripping people off, or fighting on the boards still pop up in my mind when I see certain things happen in the community. Though, thats the thing, it is a "community" and there will be people from all walks of life that venture and gather here at times. From your regular post whores, as what people call them Ha ha ha
To the people whom only post stuff, but never participate elsewhere on the boards.
To the people whom just use it for transactions in making their pc's better and nothing more.
Each and everyone has a purpose that they come here for each and every time, and this is what makes the boards interesting and what they are. They guys whom run and look after the forum (they know whom they are) really do a great job and have been for many a years. Sure, they have made their blunders and errors along the way with things, but nobody is perfect, but they certainly do make it work so that all the people mentioned above, can come and do whatever they do as part of the community.
The community certainly has changed over the time I have been on here. As old faces go, new faces come. Some you will never forget, and some, you wish you really did.
In the end, change is what makes the world go round, and everything that has a beginning, has an end...
