Greetings from the USA!

[robbieg83]

Hello! Excited to be a member of RWI. I was a long-standing member of the Geek forum that decided to leave when I was fortunate enough to afford my first Gen, which coincided with growing tiresome of the arguing and flaming that I continued seeing on RG. As a result, I've been out of the rep game for several years but decided to dive back in after being seduced by the current crop of 1:1 reps; my gosh, things have evolved in 10 years!

Looking forward to learning from the group, contributing, and participating in this wonderful hobby!

Thanks!
Rob

Hey @robbieg83

Hi and welcome to RWI. Since you are technically not a real noob to reps, I will spare you the very rudimentary introduction we like to give the freshmen for orientation, except for the obligatory advise / hint to read the sticky threads in case you need to look up our forum rules or seek other information.

As for the Geek, I have to say that I still have fond memories, since in my first week on RWI two years ago, during the big raids shutdown of the TDs in 2021, and being too slow to get my desired rep via M2M sales here, I was able to take advantage of the slower pace over on RG and snatch my first high end rep which infected me with the watch virus for good, and a few more reps and gens have followed ever since.

I still like to take a look once in a while, and post a pic or two, but I think RG is slowly going into the direction other rep forums have already gone, which unfortunately is a slow but constant slide into irrelevance.

After having spent some time between Reptime on Reddit and RWI, it became abundantly clear to me that Reptime has, at best, entertainment value and that the real knowledge of the rep scene has accumulated exclusively into RWI at this point.

Have fun on RWI and let me or @Feefo know if you need anything. We are the New Members sub section moderators and are here to support the newcomers!

Thanks for the warm welcome! I too enjoyed my time on RG years ago, that forum is the reason why I was also infected, but spared from those predatory sites offering AAAAAAAAA+++++++++++ this, and solid platinum that.

I'm happy RWI is thriving, and look forward to my re-infection

Warmest Regards,
Rob
