Hey guys - I just completed my run of shows for this leg of the tour and my main goal was to get something signed for the members of Pandora's. The first time I spoke with Tori this tour, she talked to me about this board and how she recommends it to survivors, asking me for the url and other info...which I thought was very cool. Then I asked her to sign something, which she decided to take backstage and of course never got it back to me (she's a busy woman!). Luckily she spied me in the way back of the meet and greet yesterday and wrote this for you all:

I really like that she didn't dwell on what brought us all here, but on how we support each other. You all really make this board what it is, and Tori clearly respects that. Thank you!

Shannon

boosting this. the url's need to be c/ped into your address bar, the images don't just come up anymore. i hunt for it every once in a while for some inspiration, and it occured to me that there are probably some members who've never seen it.

i've noticed this. on old threads on the new board the first post seems to appear down a ways. in this case i think the 10th post was actually the first post. I have no idea why this is. Perhaps Shannon knows?
