I've been gone/busy for the past couple of days so excuse my lack of input and contributions recently. However, I came back today to see what's up and put some of my own input in. I read the 'My Audition' board and another board and saw things that deeply, DEEPLY saddened me. Firstly, I think Regisfan addressed this matter properly and got things under control so I don't think there is a need for me to comment on the details of the particular 'My Audition' board. Secondly, I would like to address FrankT as a friend. FrankT was the first person, whom I really felt warmed me up to this forum. He personally welcomed me with open arms and interacted with me in a clever/funny matter. When I auditioned for my own password he vouched for me IMMEDIATELY. I personally thank you so much for welcoming me to a forum full of such amazing people with unbelievable talent and I really hope you rethink your decision of leaving. It is this that saddens me the most. Thirdly, I'd like to address anyone who has an idea of spamming the website in hopes for a password to the FG section. It's not going to work. I don't know how incredibly stupid you must be to think that people who spend months possibly years perfecting their work would just give it away to people who are probably going to claim the work as their own. If you really have respect for these people and their work/talent, you'll audition fairly just as I and others did. It's not an instant thing. It takes time. If you take it seriously, the gratification of getting the required votes and eventually the password will be better than anything you can imagine. Lastly, My message to the forum community. If I haven't told you already I love all of you because in my opinion we represent what a family should be. A group of people with a common interest just trying to be happy. I couldn't ask for anything more. So to show that we are a great family, let's open our hearts to new members like you did for me not so long ago. And if you see something you don't appreciate, like someone trying to cheat for a FG password. Don't yell, don't argue, don't look like an angry mob...say no. Tell them what they should do to improve. And leave it at that. It shows even more power as a community than turning into an angry mob at one misguided individual. So thanks for reading what I had to say. God bless you guys. With a heavy heart --DeltaIK24

Thank you. I think a lot of people here (if not everyone) really needed this.

Thank you very much Deltaik24, we all definetely needed this.
Regisfan, I applaud you for taking this the right way, the board was getting out of hand, and I was not happy whatsoever about it, so thank you very much.
FrankT, just because you make a mistake doesn't mean that you have to leave. You are one of the most active members and you don't at all have to leave. I know that you, me, Regisfan, the moderators, and all other members have made mistakes. That is part of our human nature, to make mistakes and improve upon them. I know when I have made a mistake, I try my best to make it better the next time, and that is what you need to do as well.
I really hope that we all have been changed. Even though sometimes you may not realize it, the people that come onto here that spam us are people. They may not be the best people in the world, but they still are people. All people have feelings, and how would you like it if somebody said, "GO AWAY, NOBODY LIKES YOU!" You would feel pretty bad, so please reflect on this as a time of not only a time to improve on what you say, but improve it on how these ARE people and we ALL have emotions.
Thank you for taking the time to read this. -Reidb1700

As bad as things were getting around here, I have to say that the community has bounced back in a big way. We've emerged from these turbulent times a bit closer than we've ever been before, and I honestly believe that those individuals who came under fire really did learn from their mistakes.
Millionaire Fans has always been a very friendly place, and I'm extremely proud of that. The community here has grown very close over the years, and we continue to see kind and talented new members pop in and join the fun on a regular basis. It's a very exciting time to be a fan of Millionaire, as we've celebrated a 10th Anniversary and witnessed many worldwide format changes over the last year. Let's ensure that Millionaire Fans remains a place where people from all around the world can come and share in the fun that is Who Wants to Be a Millionaire!

I'm glad I'm in a very nice forum. I can tell you this: There are other forums that are actually battlefields. Unfortunately, I'm in one right now where things can flame on real easily. I have high hopes that this forum will be hospitable, despite of age, gender, personality, or religion and beliefs.

I have high hopes that this forum will be hospitable, despite of age, gender, personality, or religion and beliefs. I have to strongly agree with you on that. I'm part of a forum which was nice to begin with but as time went on, it became full of trolls, and then the power hungry staff members, and the worst thing of all is all the profanity. My gosh, isn't there any other word besides the f word? I also have my own community but I still wouldn't say it's as nice as this one. The members here are awesome and Regisfan seems like an awesome admin! He loves his members and takes care of them, unlike other forum owners I know. I'm actually proud to be a member of this forum.

This is a really great forum with really great people; unfortunately we are occasionally plagued with random people that come along and just like to "stir up the pot" and aggravate everyone and make demands like we owe them something.
I'm glad you are happy here, I know I'm happy. This is certainly the best online community I've ever been a part of and all of my fellow members should be proud! (and thanks to Regisfan, and the mods, and all the great people that voluntarily contribute to the forum every day like Daily Millionaire players and RPG players and the "graphic hunters" and the fan game creators and the people who upload episode clips.. wow this sounds like a Oscar winning speech).

Thanks for the kind words! It's comments like these that make me so proud to be a part of this fan community. I'm so glad that such a great group of people stumbled upon this forum and made my vision become a reality. This place would be nothing without all of you, and I thank you all for making Millionaire Fans what it is today.

This is a really great forum with really great people; unfortunately we are occasionally plagued with random people that come along and just like to "stir up the pot" and aggravate everyone and make demands like we owe them something. The sad part of that is, that's inevitable in almost any community. You have your awesome people but then you have your bad apples as well. But you guys handle them well and professionally. I'm glad you are happy here, I know I'm happy. This is certainly the best online community I've ever been a part of and all of my fellow members should be proud! (and thanks to Regisfan, and the mods, and all the great people that voluntarily contribute to the forum every day like Daily Millionaire players and RPG players and the "graphic hunters" and the fan game creators and the people who upload episode clips.. wow this sounds like a Oscar winning speech). Agreed. And another reason this community is so awesome is because it's a smaller community. It doesn't take long to make friends here and even though I don't really personally know a lot of people here yet, I know I'd like to consider myself friends amongst all of you. You're all awesome. Thanks for the kind words! It's comments like these that make me so proud to be a part of this fan community. I'm so glad that such a great group of people stumbled upon this forum and made my vision become a reality. This place would be nothing without all of you, and I thank you all for making Millionaire Fans what it is today. Me too, Regisfan. I'm glad I was able to stumble upon such a great community and to be honest, I found this place by accident. I was Googleing something related to Millionaire and I found this forum so I clicked on it and I found it was a cool place so I joined. I'm glad I can share in your dream, Regisfan. ^_^

Sorry about the late posting on this.
Even though I have been missing for the past two months, I will be back on track. Now that the holidays are over, schooling is back to normal, I can finally have some of my own time! I am glad to be back and see that the community is doing better than ever!
RegisFan has probably been the best forum administrator that I have ever seen. He takes all of the time he needs to make us all happy and improve the community to it's fullest potential. I am very proud to have such great community members and have such a fun and energetic environment around the thing we love, Who Wants to Be a Millionaire.
I hope that all of us will continue to make this community better today, tomorrow, in the new year, and all of the new years to come!
Thank you, it's great to be back! -Reidb1700
