Hey all,
Good to be back! I first signed up about a decade ago and spent some time here for a little while. I really don't post much at all (at any forum, not just this one) but I remember this being a great place for useful information on safe sources. I ended up finding a couple of reliable sources who stayed reliable up until this year, so I have once again had to emerge from my shell and am so happy I found my way back here.
Unfortunately, I couldn't remember my old login info, so I did create a new account (I saw that the rules say one account per person, so I was a bit worried about this)…though it's not like I really had much of a posting history before since I really don't post much anyway. I'm guessing maybe I made one post in the "Introductions" section and that was it. But if this is a problem (administrators), please let me know and I'll do it differently.
Anyway, I just wanted to say thanks for being here. I'm glad that resources like this still exist. I'll try a bit harder to contribute more this time, but honestly, it is so hard for me to put myself out there and start a conversation—I know the internet is pretty much anonymous, but posting anything still feels like I'm walking up to a stranger and trying to strike up a conversation. And, yeah, in case you haven't figured it out yet, I have social-anxiety issues...
