Default Oh yeah

I just wanted to mention that I have been to many forums in my search for paying off the bills. And this one has the best format. except for the search needing a back button, but it has a search! I love that. Just came from some other site and just had to let you know how much cooler you guys are.

I just want to say again, how much better this site is than all the rest.

I just came from a site and you can't even tell which posts are new since my last visit, that is so annoyig to try and remember which forums I read. I can't even remember what I had for breakfast much less which forum I read a week ago! AND it never sends me email when a new post goes on a forum I posted to, which is really annoying. REALLY annoying. AND the quick post thing doesn't work, it just takes up space on the screen and you still have to open a new screen to post a reply, so annoying.

Did I mention that this site is way cooler than all the rest?

Look in the distance. There is a balloon rising in the air. No, it's bigger...a hot air balloon. No, still bigger...a bimp. No, wait. It's Nate's head (no comment about Jeffrey)

We're both glad that the forums are fairly easy to navigate (I'm not sure that anything can be done about a back button) Finding what you are looking for and being able to post and read easily is important.

If you want to say we're the way cooler than the rest, I don't think either of us will try and stop you

heh, ok anytime I get really annoyed at other forums, I will . So long as the docs can put Nates head back together if it pops.

I also agree this site is the best I have found and I have been to many that are just overwhelming and I have stopped going to them. Planning on coming here for a long time.

It's always a pleasure to see comments like this. We do our best to make information and tools available to all, but when it comes down to it, it's all the members here that make the site work. It's always fun to welcome new members and to build the community further.

PS - We'll try to keep our heads from inflating too much

Noticed something else really cool, the people here, are nice! I mean when a thread gets a bazzilion posts in ALL the other forums I have been to, the posts devolve into annoying name calling or finger pointing, but here that never happens, people are respectful and polite and helpful, and don't get rude or crude over differences (least I never saw it)

Just to throw in my 2 cents, I completely agree with PrincessPerky about this site. The search works fine for me, and the people are really nice and helpful. This is a very nice change from some other boards, although I admit, this is the only savings-type board I've visited. This place has it all, so no need to explore further.

The credit for that goes to all the members. I know both Nate and I have been pleased at how helpful everyone is to those trying to get there finances in order or those who have questions. We've run sites before where the forums were not near as mature as the members here and it's a challenge keeping them from disolving into something completely off topic. We hardly have to do anything here (except delete the ever growing spam) which is wonderful because it means that all of you are doing a great job helping one another out.
