[Jinji]

Wondering when these would be posted...

As I've said before, when it comes to these awards I always feel that it's not whether you win that matters, but the validation in knowing that people appreciate your talents and value you as a person. For this reason, finding out I am Runner Up for Friendliest Staff member reaffirms my caring commitment to the game and all its players; and confirms to me people still feel I live up to my commitment to make sure everyone feels welcomed and cared for.

It's also pleasant just to see my name in the charts again at all, something that wasn't even the case last time...
