First I think I pretty much agree with the quotes you posted...except i still find myself refering to this place as my "faithchild family"
I do think AFF is a lot more civil than NFCF was and is much closer to what we all thought FCF should be toward the end there as well. Even when I have disagreed with Admin on some issue or another, It seems that you guys have been open to explaining yourselves and clearly your goals have been the betterment of the board and not driving personal agenda.
that speaks of the collective charactor of the Admin/ownership group.
I do know that this place can be daunting for newbies. we can seem like a closed click and new people can get squashed. This has been a long standing problem dating back to FCF. if there is any weakness on this board, it would be how we approach new people... and how they approach us.
yes, i do mention AFF in conversation with other Apostolics, and sometimes people say things in passing and it makes me wonder if they are lurking! LOL! I think there is a LOT of that. (LURKERS!)
if there is any one thing that needs to be addressed it is the postsings of Unregistered
I'm just going to smile and disregard your shallow comments....

What people are failing to see here is that just because I am not cheerleading the squad doesn't mean that I am running down the board...come on, I have enough postings to mean that I occasionally throw in a point of view or two, ie, I am a participant...I am not NEGATIVE to the board.
However, I have never been a yes man, never been the back slapper to the crowd. I will not join in with the rest of everybody saying, "AFF has been the best thing to happen to me!!" I'm sure all can agree that for every half hour spent here or anyother leisure website is a half hour detracted from real life...but, with the net being a part of life like it is now, I am not one to say that the net can't be real in some ways.
I think one of my goals is to put smugness as far away from myself as possible...for when you least expect it...the dude was smug after tearing down his barns, building new barns, then being smug and satisfied...then his soul was required of him.
And, Your Majesty Malvaro, I apologize if I disrespected you in my post earlier

It may just be me since I have had so much going on in my life lately but I feel that since I have returned (as of last Monday) it has been kinda boring.
