This is my 15,000th post in the Forum. I never set out to be the top poster; it is just a side effect of my enjoyment at participating in the discussion of paper models and related topics.

Since I joined in 2007, I have made many friends here, some of whom I have had the pleasure of meeting in person.

Thanks for the friendship, the knowledge you have shared with me, and for all the wonderful models that I have seen designed and built over the years.

“Top poster” is an ephemeral status. The real coin of the realm in this forum is skill at paper model design and building. I love the craft, but am not a very skilled paper modeler. I also build slowly and am easily distracted, so the Forum is littered with incomplete threads of models I hope to finish someday.

My admiration goes to the talented designers and builders, those who tirelessly administer this Forum, and those who make paper models available commercially or for free. Believe me, I know the difference between their very real contributions to this Forum and just talking a lot.

Keep on scoring, cutting, folding, and pasting.

Paper beats rock every time.

Don

Don: it is an honor to be part of this forum that has you as an outstanding member.

You are a great person, and a great partner. And I say that even not knowing you in real life!

Thanks for being here.
