    Six Years

    Hell-o all,

    It has been six years this month that I first logged on to XMarks. What a wonderful six years. I have met many wonderful people (some of them in real life) and found my time here to be a grand experience.

    This place wouldn't be as great without all of the people here, you all rock! Yes we have had some growing pains and the like, but by and large it has been a grand experience, let us keep it going.

    Congrats on such a momentous milestone. I have along way to go to reach that level,
    but it has been great to be a part of the honourable forum.

    Well done indeed, I've not been quite as long as you on this forum but already I have made many new internet friends here and I have had the good fortune to be able to meet quite a few of you in person.

    Glen, congratulations on that milestone. That makes you one of the real 'old-timers' from the first year of the forum.

    Glad to have you still around.

    Wow! It's been three years for me. This is indeed a great community.

    Congratulations!

    I'm just shy of 4 years myself, and while I've been on many other egroups & forums, I always feel most at home here & would echo your sentiment of what a wonderful experience / wonderful group of people we have here. I've made many friends here & even connected with a couple of distant relatives!!

    Gman, here's to your 6 years & to many, many more to come for you & all here!
    Cheers!

    WOW... I just realized that it was April 8th (tomorrow) that I joined XMARKS in 2004, so I'm on my 6 year 'anniversary' as well. Happy Anniversary, GMan! May we both see another 6 years.

    Glen & Rocky, congrats for sticking around that long. Glen, both Joyce and I have enjoyed the kilt nights when you've been there. And Rocky, one of these days I'll be in your area, not sure when but it will happen.

    Congratulations to GMAN and Rocky. As a new member I look forward to as many years on a great community site.
    I hope to meet some members at the Tartan Day in CO on Saturday. I will be walking with my Irish Wheaten Terrier so please introduce yourselves if you see me.
    Also, I was hoping to get by Rocky's shop this summer. My wife and I were planning a trip to Quakertown to visit her family but I can't go because of work so maybe next year I'll get there.
