Hello from the staff! What a month! That's right month. On February 15, 2013 a great many fans of Tapped Out went off and started this player moderated forum. It may have been a hasty start, and a bit of a rocky one, but things have settled down and we now see so many things much more clearly. We've established many of our own house rules. We've trained the staff how to address and assist you, the forum members, so that errors of the past can (hopefully) be avoided in the future. It's a learning process and your feedback will help us serve you better. Forum SuggestionsWe may have started this forum as a reaction, but we have quickly realized that this place is beyond our expectation. The controls, alone, here are amazing! Awards! Likes! Tagging! We love the ability to create whatever we can dream up: contests, challenges, forum based games, Simpson-centric entertainment, the sky is the limit! But perhaps best of all is that we have people on staff that care and watch out for everyone. If a post or something needs our attention flag it and staff will respond. We take those flags very seriously. We are all dedicated to a forum that is free of disruption. Of course the responses and actions we take are not publicly broadcast due to privacy reasons for users, but we do take action. Today we are nearly 500 members strong! Everyday we are greeting new members at the door. We're listening and adapting to member's suggestions. We watch out for our young members. And most importantly, we are involved in the forum. Watching, listening, merging, deleting, and guiding when necessary. We plan to seek out new members and develop a plan for our future. We need you to be a part of that. To help out all we ask is that you participate. Offer your opinions and expertise. And of course give us your feedback. We can only get better with your help.

Hello to all the wonderful admins, moderators, and everyone who made this possible (with the exception of @neosec28 and IDGAFF ) - they take too much credit anyway..... Now, if the staff could solve this, they'd be doubly-awesome!

I'm glad I stuck it out past the initial drama too. Besides the moderating and user attitudes, I find the navigation and formatting far superior to anything in life I've ever judged by the four criteria above. (martini)

It seems like only yesterday we were swaddling the forum in a baby blanket and wondering what we should call it. Well the days have gone by and thanks to wonderful parenting, and yes the occasional moments of tough love, the baby has grown into its prepubescent glory. Now I don't wish to alarm anyone, but the teenge years are often the most challenging, but I take comfort in knowing that our group of moderators will gently guide us no matter how unruly we become.

I feel that I should clap at the end of this. I read it rather speech like in my head.... I read it in Bane's voice. Then again, I often read mundane things in Bane's voice. It's a fun game. As for the forum, well, let me tell you, this place ain't as good as it used to be. You see, I remember a magical day when everything was white, Homer was giving the finger, walnuts were being crammed and smiting was taking place. Now none of that is here. And we are all worse for it!!! Bah! Seriously though. This place has been a fine addition to the internets.

Spiffshine, evoking Ruth's name like that is just asking for the Derailment Train to come steaming through this lovely thread. As an aside, I would note that the official TSTO Player Forum board Derailment Train is a monorail.
