I recently found out just how tough and frustrating it can be to be a mentor. I don't honestly know how some of you can survive it... so I'm just giving out a big thank you to all of the mentors, administrators, and homework helpers on this forum!

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Was reading through comics just after this and that was in there. Too good an opportunity to pass up.

You just discovered a social theorem. If you are not high enough in the hierarchy, you are not likely (worthy ?) to be subjected to butt-kissing. Why should you after all ? Just kidding , bird. You are a cool guy.

Thank you. If not for the people like you moderating forums would be boring.

I'm amazed everyday for the dedication of our mentors. Thanks for being here for us.

Over the years here, I've seen only improvements to PF due to our great staff taking the time to do the behind the scene work.

I can only offer thanks with the hope that it's enough to help you all overcome all the difficulties that can only be imagined.
