Greetings everyone,

Welcome back to PKIUnlimited. I hope that this time we can respect one another enough to prevent future personal attacks. It is vital that we avoid the forum wars that caused these forums to be closed in the first place.

I'd like to take the opportunity to tell you why I think we should all support and thank Aaron - and respect his wishes.

I am quite proud of my personal accomplishments in terms of my education, writings, travels, television appearances, etc. However, I am 31 years old. Aaron is under 18 years of age. He had the vision, patience, and technical talent to design and create PKIUnlimited - the most popular unofficial PKI page on the Internet. That is quite a feat! Quite frankly folks, I lack the technical aptitude to create a site like this.

When I was Aaron's age I could barely use a computer - let alone design a homepage. Not only is Aaron the creator and administrator of this site, but his name and one of his quotes appeared on the front cover of a city newspaper, he is a competent driver, and an outstanding soccer player.

When I was Aaron's age my greatest accomplishments were having a girlfriend 3 years older than me, sneaking beer into my bedroom without my parents noticing, and coming in 3rd place in a break dancing contest. I was not a star athlete (though I was admired for my tenacity) and drove so poorly that my driving teacher dreaded my lessons.

Aaron has much to brag about for a man his age. As some of you know, next year I will (God willing) become a father. If my child will have Aaron's maturity, wisdom, creativeness, manners, and initiative...I will be a very proud father.

I think that for just for one moment we should appreciate all the talent it takes to maintain this site and thank the young man behind it. Additionally, I think that we should respect his wishes, specifically:

1. That we do NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT bash each other.

2. We attempt to use proper grammar.

Hence, I would like to take the opportunity to publicly thank Aaron for his great efforts into creating and maintaining PKIUnlimited.com. And I think that it would be nice if others can thank him too. Without Aaron, we wouldn't have this site to communicate with one other and learn new and exciting things about Paramount's Kings Island.

Sincerely,

Italian Chef

^ agreed ^

Hey Chef, what's that brown stuff on your nose?

Anyway, Chef's right. Aaron rocks at home pages. When I was 16, I had mastered Java and Visual Basic, but to this day, I still can't get web pages to look the way that I want them to. So keep up the good work!

yup Aaron is da man!

Aaron is awesome but all these Aaron love threads did in the past was cause pointless bickering. Closing...
