Hey David,

I really appreciate the thorough feedback! I also love the unofficial welcome, haha.

I can see how some bad apples would use this forum to pilfer clients. I don't want to do that. To be frank, I only see clients in the city I live, I don't see clients over skype at all (even though some people have asked). I doubt many people on this forum live in Idaho.

It's a shame this forum isn't moderated much, but I understand why, it can be a lot of work. I ran a forum for a while in the motorcycle industry and the spammers would get out of control. I made a few trusted users moderators and it seemed to work out well. I wish the admin of this forum did that too.

Thanks for the advice. I'll continue to post things I think are interesting, and help where I can. I'll even share some of my own journey. I admit I'm not crippled by anxiety any longer, but I think that gives me a unique opportunity to give back where I can.

If for some reason you find any of my posts out of line, I'd love it if you let me know. I know you aren't officially a moderator, but judging by your post score you know this place a LOT better than I do.
