A friend of mine, whom I respect a great deal, stated the following in a completely unrelated email: "…it’s much more satisfying to step back and appraise one’s own work and be proud of it when it has a certain formality and thoroughness about it."  This rang eerily true and caused me to take a step back and reflect.

My true love is for gaming hardware and sharing the knowledge that I have acquired through the years (40+ year old gamer here).  My hope is that you find the articles that result from this passion of mine to be informative, beneficial and entertaining at times.  I do not profess to be the greatest writer in the world – a public rating of mediocre would be welcomed.  But as my friend pointed out, it is critical to be personally happy with the finished product, and with what you are doing.

What I have learned through the writing of this editorial of mine is that I truly enjoy communicating to you as a reader – this is my true goal as a webmaster.  At times the technical demands of running a website can be overwhelming and at times I need to be a better juggler. Rest assured that the commitment to providing the best platform to deliver relevant information and ‘good reads’ to you is of paramount importance.  My gratitude for your patience and understanding while I work to complete VGCL can not be expressed in words.

Best regards during this holiday season to you and your family.
