Greeting everyone,
This month I wanted to take some time and thank each and every one of you who have helped support RCSB over the years. Between our site supporters and our supporting vendors we have built an awesome community like no other on the internet, created a community model that other communities have mimicked, and as they say "Imitation is the greatest form of flattery". Also, the site also currently helps support many scale fly-ins and contest each year. All this is only because of YOUR support.
The way we do things here at RCSB is not for everyone, and long ago I concluded that I cannot make everyone happy, but myself and the staff of admins and moderators (who totally work for free) try our best to keep the site a positive experience for everyone. This site, like any community or society has rules to keep it flowing smoothly. Sometimes, when individuals try to step outside those rules and we have to remind them of them they sometimes get offended. I hope anyone who has been on that side of this situation understand it is for the greater good of the site and not personal in any shape or form.
RCSB is such a unique site because of the community here and it always amazes me when I meet up with fellow RCSB'ers how much we all have in common and how much we all love this hobby. As we head toward our 20th year on the web, I feel that as a community we all have done more for Scale R/C that anything I can remember since I have been in this hobby. None of this would have been possible with out each and every one of you who have subscribed Yearly, Lifetime Site Supporter, or a Supporting Vendor.
So to each and very one of you a huge THANK YOU! 
Until next month,
Mike

Mike, thank you for your vision of this site and making it a reality for the masses to enjoy! This is a site for the hobbyist by the hobbyist's and the best one there is! Without getting political, this site is what this country needs. One vision with every type of nationality and ethnicity coming together in a family type of way to encourage, help and move each other forward to do better and share our lives and experience's. Thanks to you and your hard work we are not just a hobby with participants but a worldwide community. Not a small accomplishment at all! Hats off to you and your/our family members here and abroad! Many more years to come!

Thanks Mike for all the work you do. Anyone who works in IT knows there are countless, unrecognized hours and headaches. I have been a member since the very beginning and appreciate the staying power this forum has for modelers with interests like ours. Too many other forums have fallen by the wayside, or degraded into a cesspool of infighting. Thanks for keeping us on course and giving us THE place to hang out for scale RC modelers.
Paul
