To whomever it may concern...
I have just recently received my very first NWR forum title thanks to the powers that be. As a member of this site for about three-ish years (nearing on four), I am very pleased to finally join the ranks of those that are deemed worthy. Even if my title doesn't necessarily make sense to me. Whatever!
I've come to realize, after browsing the cesspool that is 4chan's /v/, that it's not the discussion of video games that I enjoy (although, I do like talking about video games, specifically certain genres, very, very, very, VERY much), it's the community that forms around them, and not being able to identify those specific personalities, whether they are positive or negative. I've kicked the /v/ habit, I don't go there anymore, mostly because I found it was a pit of despair and ultimately very transient, and it led me to take refuge here. I have grown as a person at NWR, realized my own style of writing (which is pretty damn important, since that's what I'd like to do in the future), and tackled my personal demons as well as those I consider important within the realm of video games. To be bestowed with a title, no matter what it may be, is an accomplishment in my eyes. It means, I am here. I belong to this community. And I'm happy to say that.
Thanks, NWR!
