This is exactly how I feel. I've been around from the start and feel absolutely terrible that I don't contribute more. I always intend to do better but I always fall short. It blows me away at how awesome Lee is. It blows me away at how awesome this community is. I would have never imagined that it would still be going strong today. I was just googling some MW2 tips and tricks and ended up finding mw2forums.com Crazy how it's all come together.
As for the awesome update. You're the man, Lee. I love the advent calendar idea. That's amazing.
I feel split on the Whatsapp topic. I love that we all shoot the shit in Whatsapp, but if it didn't exist, I'd probably post here more often. But, I feel that as a whole it's a net positive for us. It's nice to just talk some shit real quick in middle of a busy day when I don't have time to browse a forum. But, you've got the right idea, it's a balancing game. Members have to be conscious about making sure they're still keeping the home base going.
Thanks for all you do buddy! I'm looking forward to checking out some of these upcoming changes.
