5years & 5000 posts and I just wanted to say thanks to all who make this forum the best replica forum on the web, Big thanks to Trailboss, Q5, Guru, Co-Axial, Ale, all the Admin, Mods who do a fantastic job and not forgetting all Rwi's forum members who without them keep Rwi Alive. :cheers:
I've made some great friends on here and hope to continue to do so, I was trying to hold of posting this thread till the 27th June as this was the date of my 1st post in 2008 yet I've broke through a little quicker, it still continues to amaze me the quality of reps we now get from the factories compared to what was acceptable back in 2008, long may it continue.
For me to stay and be active for 5 years is not something I've ever done on any forum, I've probably been more active over the last 2 years indulging myself in RWI whist trying to come to terms with the loss of my father and his 5 year battle with Cancer(RIP DAD Gone but NEVER Forgotten)
Yes it's taken me 5 years to get to 5k hopefully some meaningful and helpful posts and I'm sure plenty of pointless ones along the way
I've seen a lot of dealers come and go some taken from us (RIP Robert) new members everyday, old come back, but what always remains is the Spirit on Rwi.
So I thought I would copy and paste my very 1st post here:

"Hi all this is my 1st post on the forum, and just wanted to say how great the service i have recieved from Andrew @Trusty time.
I have been wanting to buy a rep for quite a while doing the usual google searches ect yet not taking the plunge, until i found this forum, and the wealth of information on it.
So i finally took the plunge and bought my 1st rep from Andrew, a PAM177H 44mm Titanium Luminor Marina.
His service from start to finish has been great, so i just wanted to tell my tale and hopefully newbee's like myself will trust the dealers on this forum and order there 1st rep"

And yes at the time Andrew was a trusted dealer on here.
I received a warm welcome all those years ago from Cybee and its maybe time I was a little more welcoming to noobs( thou some do deserve a ripping) :rofl:
If I've learnt anything over the years searching for the true 1:1 ain't never gonna happen, enjoy the rep for what it is and Pm BMW for info on who has the best Sub :bmw760:
Enough blabbering from me :hehehe:

Thanks Rwi
