We are all lucky to have the time and means to play such a simple game that brings joy and apparently by the look of this sub so much anguish.

Prior to POGO and finding this sub i was a reddit lurker who would just utilize reddit for news updates, funny memes, and hilarious trolling comebacks via the comment sections

Then the POGO craze happened and my addiction enveloped my being. The need to be the best consumed me and i had to find ways to be more efficient in my ways.

I found myself here. Taking notes, educating myself about things, laughing about similar experiences reading other's stories, and cringing at the unfortunate mistakes or lost encounters of rare monsters.

I may not have personally gotten to know the individuals in this community but we as a whole share a similar joy and i am grateful to be a part of it. Through the good and the bad I still find my way back to this sub for a quick chuckle at how frustrated people are or the awesome dedication of some to get x amount of xp points during a special event.

So as my first official post i want to say thank you to all of you and please be safe and remember to just enjoy what we have as much as you can. #happyholidays
