I'm kind of a dunderhead and I'd be totally remiss if I failed to mention [mention]watchpalooza[/mention] and [mention]TheJohnP[/mention] and the help they've given to the site. Thank you!

Thank you to Matt for, well, being Matt. A hundred other people complained, but you took the initiative (and personal risk and investment) to create a better reality. I am forever grateful to you for reminding me what I love about this hobby and community, and giving us all a fresh start. Your light-handed, warm-hearted approach here really sets the tone.

Thank you to all our members for making this place great and giving me something to look forward to each day. Your imaginativeness, dedication and contributions are greatly appreciated.

Big thanks also to John P. I am constantly amazed at the energy and work you put in to make this a world-class community. The crowd-funded forum you built from scratch is absolutely incredible.

Sporkboy deserves some love, too. The time and effort you have put into creating official MoT watches is remarkable.

Yinz, Dubb, Wolfsatz, Bbrou and many others also...just an incredible group of people who contribute so much, and I am very grateful to be a part.

Happy Anniversary!!!

Grateful to have luckily found this place last year, even more so since I wasn’t a regular on any of the sub threads at WUS.

I’m aware of the enormous effort it takes to keep a community active and relevant, so thank you to all the participants, mods, and of course Matt.

Here’s to another year of going broke by saving money!

And I've also found that while I came for the deals, I've stayed for the people...Can't agree more. A big thank you to the BIG GUY and all members here. You guys are really awesome.

Just learned I’m one of only 25? people who “like” MoT’s Facebook page. Seems odd, since I’d expect most of you to be on FB if only to have access to Marketplace. (You can sometimes find good deals on used watches or lawnmowers there.)

More subversively, the occasional post by our host there serves to pull eyeballs away from the FB slipstream, which can never be a bad thing IMO.

Absolutely! His dedication to this place has really helped with crafting (no pun intended) something special.

This community is special. I am very grateful for what I've learned from you guys.

I have bought only three watches in the past year; sold more than that. I'd like to post more deals but don't shop much these days. But I'll continue to contribute as best I can to keep this fun house active.

Thanks, Matt and the rest of the team. :)

I remember joining the day this place was created. The growth over the past year has been fun and exciting. Though I forced myself to be away from the deals thread for most of the year, the rest of this beautiful community is full of knowledge and experience.
I look forward to spending the day here everyday and can't wait for the future of this great place!
Thank you MoT and all the great mods, contributors, and everyone else who stops by!

Cheers! Image
