You guys are stuck with me no matter what. LOL
15 years this month I have been here and it's the best thing I ever found on the internet. Of the 10 people I would say are my closest friends I met 8 of them here. And that percentage carries out to larger numbers for sure.

Met one of my very best friends in the world because of OSO. Even though we only lived 20 minutes apart at the time I doubt our paths would've ever crossed had I not sent him a PM. That was several years ago and we have both relocated but still talk at least weekly about the important sh!t and the not so important stuff as well. I've got tons of acquaintances but only a handful of truly close friends. Chris Bingham knows which category he falls in.
I have to agree with both of these posts whole hardheartedly. Some of my BEST friends have come from OSO; and the local boat community which are also OSO members and the like.
Too add, I've been fortunate enough to make friends across this great country due to OSO; and have boating and crash-pad options all year long when schedules line up. I think many of us can say the same.

This is a community of many, a internet forum that's impacted by the real world events. People live, die, move, change jobs, hired/fired, change hobbies, get married or divorced, get angry at a neighbor etc.. Anyone of these can change a person and what they do for fun.

I think some of the best guys in our hobby/lifestyle are on this forum. I'll never leave, despite the random negativity.
The real idiots seem to have a way of getting weeded out.

I always wondered what happened to Waterfoul & Travis. Those were from the really old days. Some of the pre-membership charter members that used to post a lot.
