Favorite AF members and why

I suppose the most consistent of these are Jesster, Abaris and Thump, but lately I have been enjoying posts from Whateverist, Bella, Matilda and Arkilogue (when he tones down the deepities). Wish I could give more kudos more often but you can't do it on Tapatalk. How annoying is that?! It drives me crazy that I have to try and remember which posts from which threads I want to go back to and give kudos to later on. Wish there was a way we could do it right from Tapatalk.

Mariosep, in concept.
“Love is the only bow on Life’s dark cloud. It is the morning and the evening star. It shines upon the babe, and sheds its radiance on the quiet tomb. It is the mother of art, inspirer of poet, patriot and philosopher.
It is the air and light of every heart – builder of every home, kindler of every fire on every hearth. It was the first to dream of immortality. It fills the world with melody – for music is the voice of love. Love is the magician, the enchanter, that changes worthless things to Joy, and makes royal kings and queens of common clay. It is the perfume of that wondrous flower, the heart, and without that sacred passion, that divine swoon, we are less than beasts; but with it, earth is heaven, and we are gods.” - Robert. G. Ingersoll
Yeah, I'll second Brewer. Popularity contests are childish. I'd say almost every poster here has impacted me in some capacity since I found you guys a year ago. Some people have taught me a ton about logic and debating. Others crack me up laughing with their wit. I've learned a lot about world religion, and evolution from certain members who are well versed in those subjects. Even the people who drive me insane teach me something, if just a small something, in every discussion. I've actually learned a lot from resident theists as well; as far as how they reconcile their faith, and how unique each of them are regarding their particular beliefs. Even the trolls are great for occasional entertainment purposes, and target practice. ?
I love this place. It is very valuable to me. I'm not going to single anyone out, or leave anyone out for that matter, because for me, that's not really the point. Love you guys! ?

Why do you use Tapatalk? Can't browse without it?

Well, thanks for calling my thread childish then.. That's mature.
Yeah, I'm joining the Debbie Downer camp here. I can't really see what good there is in making a thread like this. Though I will say that two of my favorites are gone indefinitely (I tend to dodge social politics, so I'm not sure their stories, but they are both witty, intelligent folks).

I don't see anyone holding a gun to your heads making you post in this thread.
