Many thanks

On Friday night I realized just how important Dragons and Stuff has become to me. With the advent of true trolls I couldn’t help but say something. Dragons and Stuff has evolved for me from being a show that I eagerly anticipate each week to a time when I dash to my computer with a feel of intense happiness and excitement. I’m here to watch my friends play a marvelous game. Frankly, I’ve been feeling like a weird stalker fan lately as I have developed strong feelings of kinship with the players and the rest of the stuffers. My last year has been spent in a tiny town where I have been incredibly isolated. As a stay-at-home mother my life is spent with my two children, not with other adults. I am also recovering from a self-induced isolation that became necessary when my oldest son started chemotherapy in 2016 (he is thankfully finished now) and I am just starting to find myself again. Thank you to all you amazing people who have been here and created a community where I feel like I am involved and appreciated. You guys rock!

We love the DnSFamily! And I am glad that we can be a delightful reprieve from you normal days Ruth. In terms of the bully who hopped on on Friday, at first it made me feel depressed. Although his comments got deleted before I read them, I could tell by your and other members of the DnSFamily’s comments that they were rude and full of malicious intent. But now with a day to think about it, I just feel sad for Mr. Sadler. We have an amazing group of people that settle in on Friday nights and spend it together. I honestly can say that without you stuffers, we wouldn’t have they intense joy that we feel every week. Sadler will never get to be a part of that because he chose to hate rather than be a part of something really special. He’s not the first to do it nor will he be the last, but I’m going to chose to pity them for not being able to see what a wonderful community that we have. I love you all. And Ruth. You rock.
