1K reputation on OPPO and how the experience has been.

[Genesis_Haysenhox]

I'm extremely close to hitting my 1,000 reputation mark here at OPPO and I thought this would make it a good time to express how I feel about this place and my gratitude for it.

To start off, I want to say thank you to everyone here who was welcoming to the former DriveTribe members. You gave us a home and that means a lot, at least to me. The people here are extremely nice, helpful, and caring to one another. That's something I never had at DriveTribe. There are rarely people that get on my nerves here and I love that about this place. Being excellent to one another is a great rule because it keeps us in place and prevents such toxicity, versus DriveTribe which never defended you or even had such rules.

I wish I could explain how much I love this forum for everything it does, I may not fit in like most of you, but I try my hardest. I'm always trying to learn from you guys, make better content, and so much more. Even just being here for a month or so, I've already learned so much and I thank you all for that. I sometimes feel like we're one big family in a single house, and I love it.

I never feel like I'm treated differently here and it means so much to me, even just being here is more than I could ask for.

DriveTribes shutdown was a blessing in disguise, simply because I'm much happier here than I've ever been before. Having people take the time to read content and interact with it is just amazing. I feel like I'm more acknowledged and listened to, that's how any topic or forum should be.

I can't thank you all enough for what you've done. I finally feel happy somewhere and I'm so grateful for it.

Thank you for letting me be part of this forum

But we are glad that you're here! Keep commenting, chatting and hanging out! Just don't chase rep, it's not something anyone pays attention to.

@normal-human-being
Oh! haha.
Not mainly what the post was for but thanks.

@genesis_haysenhox

I think they mean for the rep (which really doesn't mean anything here).

Please take CoFL's comment as a joke. LOL

Glad you've been treated well here!

@genesis_haysenhox Give it another month and you won’t even look at your reputation! but seriously thanks for being here and embracing the community as it is. We are a VERY big family under one roof. Almost like family thanksgiving everyday, we have our discussion and disagreements but done with care for one another.

I’m really glad Oppo can be that for you. It is for me. That’s why I feel blessed to be able to hang here and do my part for it.

@davesaddiction
I think I should've chosen a different title because the objective of the post was not that...

[davesaddiction]

@genesis_haysenhox

You can edit it.

[Genesis_Haysenhox]

@snakesm13
Ha! that's a great way to think of it, thanks

It’s funny, because likes and reputation are so much the currency of the internet, but here they really mean nothing. It was months before one day someone noticed the “reputation” page of this place. Then we all had a while laughing and joking about who was gonna pass whom and forgot about it.

So do’t feel bad, just readjust.

[Genesis_Haysenhox]

@davesaddiction
Haha, yeah. I can take a joke.
