Over the past few months, Stonewall Fleet has grown from a small group to a thriving family; members from around the globe are calling Stonewall their home and are so excited to be here. Your dedication to enhancing the site, the forums, and all that is in between, does not go unnoticed and we are extremely grateful! Without you, we would not be here :) So, without further adieu, the following members and I would like to present you with a little token of our appreciation!

You all, I can't describe to you enough how amazingly touching this is. You had me in tears as I read this.

I'm so glad that we started this fleet because without it, I wouldn't have met all you fantastic people. If it hadn't been for all of you, this Fleet wouldn't be what it is today. All of your dedication and energy helped to keep me motivated and goal oriented to keep pushing for the site and the fleet to be better and better.

Seeing the membership grow, more and more people in the chatroom and our long discussion about everything under the sun has been wonderful. I can't wait to play this lifetime with all of you.

Thank you so much.

Congrats Nick!!! You definitely deserve this :)

Nick,

I want you to know that I am thrilled to be here among such an amazing group of people. This thread is very moving.

I thank you for having me, and taking the time out of your busy life to keep the site looking and functioning beautifully. When I signed up here last year, it was quiet. Now, the fleet has grown immensely and has become a very lively place.

Enjoy your gift, Well deserved, and heres to many fun times with Stonewall Fleet in the final frontier!

Regards,
Steve

Thank you so much.

This is probably one of the best things I've seen a guild do for their leader. Kudos. Total respect.

Enjoy Nick!!

Congrats! You are really so deserving of this. Thank you for all you do!

You guys are so awesome.

Every hour I go and look at this.
