The Sanctuary

[Travis]

I love a good RS hugfest! (sniffle) I love you guys! (sniffle)

Cheeeeers!

[Triggerjay]

I want to thank Travis for giving us this place. I am also a member of a couple other forums, and frequent this one the most due to the great attitudes of the members. Thanks everyone, for giving me a place to learn, have fun, and kill time! Until recently, I have avoided giving advise, partially due to the fact I myself was basically a newbie, knowing very little, and in the short time I have been here, learned a lot... enough to try to help others, and I owe it all to RS. Thanks!

A thought if you have advise aka something you have done & it works it might just work for someone else

Gosh we love us.

I posted this poem in my reef chronicle but it seems
appropriate here too:

I am a link in Amida Buddha's golden chain of love
that stretches around the world.
I must keep my link bright and strong.

I will try to be kind and gentle to every living thing
and protect all who are weaker than myself.

I will try to think pure and beautiful thoughts,
To say pure and beautiful words,
And to do pure and beautiful deeds,
knowing that on what I do now, depends
not only my happiness or unhappiness
but also those of others.

May every link in Amida Buddha's golden chain of love
Become bright and strong,
and may we all attain Perfect Peace.
~Namu Amida Butsu

It is appropriate anywhere.
But seriously does seem very appropriate for RS. I think that is why I love this place so much.

I honestly don't know how I came across RS (possibly a search engine). I will say that it is without a doubt my favorite site. I think that it's because everyone tries to treat each other with the same respect that we would like ourselves. There is so much knowledge and folks aren't reluctant to help one another. There is a sincere attitude of helpfulness and a very strong concern for the feelings of others.

Although I am involved, to a lesser extent, in several other sites, this just feels like home. Thank you all for making this a place to come home to.

That I would get this thread upfront again for all the new members to view or comment on.

Just a reminder that you can change the 'skin' for this forum! Scroll down to the bottom of the screen and click on the drop-down box located at the bottom left. You will see different 'skin' selections; Grey RS, Nexus Blue RS, Nexus Green RS, Blue, and Lite.

Try a different skin today

I'm new to the forum, but I've been posting elsewhere for quite some time and recently started fishing for a new group. I was very impressed by the warm welcome I received here and browsing through the posts it seemed like everyone was very positive and helpful. I asked for help on an issue and received an abundance of great recommendations, so I'm hooked now (although y'all did talk me into emptying out my bank account again ). This seems like a really good group with a lot of knowledge and a lot of good cheer to go around. I'm looking forward to learning from all of you.

Always a pleasure to hear about another good reception here

We are really good at spending other people's money.

Of course RS is not only a friendly informative place but the people here are good at saving you money by pointing you in the right direction instead of wasting your money on bad products or inappropriate livestock.

So true!

Some of us have had the pleasure of meeting and those of you that I have met I couldn't be more positive about!
