There's a load of you sane, wonderful people who give your time and common sense. Some I just read, others I interact with but all I learn from

So even though I will forget a load of people, and I would really like others to acknowledge those who have helped them do this, here's my paltry shout out and thanks to

@Liftng4Lis ..lady you rock!
@sijomial ...love your advice and warmth
@mrm27...dude you know your stuff and you ain't afraid to say it
@tincanonastring ...peep cleanse makes me roar
@SideSteel , @Sarauk2sf ...goes without saying almost

    A great list that I too have learned much from, and and saddened that some won't have the same opportunity.

    If this was directed to me, 3 on that list were paramount to my knowledge early on, when I was lost and confused like so many who come. Their brutal honesty, and solid feedback in the forums kept me coming back for more. I am far from where I want to be, but because of them I know exactly why, and how to fix it.

    @MrM27 @SideSteel @Sarauk2sf specifically.

    I'm newer to the site than you lot, and I lurked a bit before posting to the forums. It was quickly apparent to me that these three knew what they were talking about.

    + 1.

    Nice to see it being paid forward. I have learned a lot from many on that list. Tincan's around, he's just been recovering from the Easter rush. :)

    I seem to recall from the confessions thread (which I've given up on) that he had some life things that needed to be dealt with.

    He appeared on some thread somewhere in the recent past but I believe he's a busy fellow at present and this makes me sad.

    A related thing:

    I approve of this list and it's so nice to have some people here with their heads on straight.

    I don't post very often but I read all the posts I'm physically able to get through and I typically take the most away from @lemurcat12 posts :) so thank you for taking the time to respond thoughtfully and honestly in threads, I learn a lot from you!

    There's certainly some great, knowledgeable, successful, and even blunt members on MFP, all of which I've gleaned some information from and highly respect. Some of them being on this list :)

    For me, those people have been
    @trogalicious
    @MrM27
    @MB_Positif
    @usmcmp
    @Sarauk2sf

    There's more that I'm probably forgetting, as there's so many stand up folks, I'm not sure I could name them all. :)

    What a sweet thing to say, I certainly feel all warm now.
    (Hopefully that doesn't mean I've wet myself again.....)
