Wow, 8 years!
Congratulations to all the HoP crew and especially Malcolm who started all this from humble beginnings, through good times and hard, and has built up a great business surrounded by a great community. beerchug
I've been on this site for over 5 years and have been lucky enough to have contributed my part to the site (and yes, I know some people still want the grey back!) and I'd like to say thank you to everyone for making this a community and an interesting place to hang out. grouphug

Wow...8 years.

When I first joined, 8 years ago I honestly hadn't realized that 1. It was such a new and shiny site (I think I joined within a month of it's inception, when there were about 20 of us! lol) and 2. That it would become such a major global presence in these arts.



I am so proud of it.

I am proud and grateful to Malcolm and all of the hard work, love and devotion he has given not only the site but the members and crew.

I am proud to call so many here friends, and even family, and to work with some of the most awesome personalities I have come into contact with on the net, and in person (Malcolm, Chris, FF, Dom, Pyrolific-which is still odd to type, btw, Charles). I can't wait to meet more of ya!



There have been so many milestones and "issues" through the years and through it all this group has pulled through with a sense of community, humor, compassion and passion that is absolutely unparalleled.



I also would never have thought with my lack of attention span that I would still be here. lol



Malcolm, can we have a huge, honking NZ party for the 10th anni?



Happy Birthday HoP and thank you to everyone for making working here a delight. (yes, even you NYC wink )



Many, Many More!

Lovely thoughts Pele - second the motion. As someone totally new to all this, what impressed me and made me want to become a part of it, is the community of passionate folk that Malcolm has helped to bring together. It is amazing and quite unique and special IMHO.

And what a great idea about a honking great NZ party! I'm sure we can oblige with that request Pele! Anyone who wants to start planning an NZ holiday for Oct 2008 should seriously put this on their mental calendar now and start saving!! I'm sure Malcolm wont be able to say "No" if several hundred/thousand of you turn up on his doorstep in 2 years time and ask "where's the party"!!! biggrin biggrin biggrin

Wooooooooo!!!!! eek 8 Years!!!!!

I've been apart of HoP for about one year. Although I may not talk to you guys often, I find that you are the greatest friends I've had.

Putting into mind that those of you who havent seen my thread, I will post it. It is simply just a thank you that reminds me how much this site means to me, and how much the people affect my life

[Old link]

Honestly, you guys mean very much to me. I've met so many inspirations that have motivated me to do many things.

Hopefully the thread will show you my gratefullness I give from this site.

In addition to the time I've spent getting to know you all, I wish to know more, to be apart of this community for as long as I can.

Happy birthday HoP, I thank you for everything you have given and done for me!

Time for a bit of a blub!

HoP helped me through one of the worst times of my life...

I can honestly say that this community is the most caring, fantastic, joyful, PINGing, and loving group of people I have ever met.

Thanks Malcolm and the Team for everything!

WOW! Time really does fly when you're having fun. I don't quite remember when I started lurking here - I think it was in 1999, then I joined up for real in 2000.

Growing old gracefully together.

I have more to be grateful for as a result of HOP and my involvement in this community that words can express. No matter how far away I venture in my life journey, I always end up back here, at Home, with the people I have so much love and respect for.

*gush*

And, I am so up for a cranking party in NZ in 2008!

Thank you Malcolm, Pele, Pyrolific, Charles, Dom for all your work behind and in front of the scenes. Thank you to integral players without who HOP would feel empty, and thanks to all of you for making this place amazing.

ubblove
