I have been an active poster and thread creator. I like threads that discuss everyday topics. I like threads that are constantly changing and moving daily.
The DoctorSleep thread was an interesting look at how the KATG community is really willing to help each other BUT if that help is repeatedly ignored they will turn on you en masse.

KATG has introduced me to an engaging group of people from all over the world. We all have the common thread of KATG but have completely different lives. I joined Twitter because of KATG. The biggest event for me was a thread I posted asking people their thoughts on Only Children as I currently have one child and was thinking about not having anymore. The responses I received from people who are only children, come from large familes, have large families and were also considering having more then one was a KEY factor in my decision to have try for another child. It is a life changing decision for me that the KATG community helped me make.

I am exactly the same person online as I am in person, for better or for worse.
Thanks so much, Campy! I agree with Bucho and Blitzgal that you are awesome!

Just need a few more like this, and I am good to go!
