Not something we normally do, we used to notify when members hit certain post counts tho.
Anyway...... I think it's worth mentioning that Antonio has been on the forum exactly one year today, and personally, I think it's a great achiement for everyone!
Obviously, Antonio first and foremost for sticking it out and persevering with the language barrier, and I think he's done an amazing job using google translate to its fullest and adapting it to make it work for him!
And for working through cultural differences and senses of humour!
It can't have been easy.
Making 'trusted advisor' was a massive step for him but totally deserved, his advice is always sound and he fully commits to what he believes in, he's passionate to say the least. Even if he doesn't like it when someone disagrees with him! Hehe
But then this wouldn't be a successful forum without differences of opinion, would it!
All you guys have contributed too!
As far as I'm aware he's been totally accepted by all the members and If it wasn't for you, this would not have been possible at all.
You've been kind, tolerant, and very forgiving at times, and that deserves recognition also I think.
Especially as he can be what we would see as an Atypical Italian! Haha
(That's a compliment Antonio)
So thank you everyone for doing your little bit, and thank you Antonio for making this forum a little more interesting at times, and for taking us a little closer to being a forum that is willing to embrace members from all over the world, so that we can all grow and learn from each other, no matter what their technique or ideas!
Congratulations Antonio, and thank you ALL!
