Hello there. My name is Amy-Hope, but my friends just call me Amy. I am 17 years old, and I am now in my senior year of high school. I am Filipina, but I was born in the United States. I am currently residing in Illinois.

I believe I stumbled across DMB when I was checking out Dodo's domain, Regretless.com. I joined Dodo's Message Board because the community seemed very friendly, and there seemed to be many people with similar interests as me. A lot of my friends aren't really into video games, webdesign, and other hobbies that many of the people at DMB enjoy doing. It's great to talk with people who share common interests. I've been a member since July 21st, 2002. I believe I registered before this date, but I think DMB was gone for a bit, and then completely restarted itself. Of course, I eagerly waited for its return and gladly reregistered!

DMB has allowed me to meet different types of people. I've realized that liking the same things as someone doesn't mean you are the same person. This is definitely not a bad thing! Variety is spectacular!

One great thing about DMB is that it's an awesome resource center. You can find help for all sorts of things on the web without busting your butt doing a search at a search engine. Plus, there's so many talented people at DMB, that you know most of the help will be pretty effective.

DMB is so much different from other message boards. Many message board owners aren't very willing to give too much to the users. That's very unlike DMB because the administrator of this board is unbelievable! Before Dodo does anything with the board, she makes sure she has the input of the users. Other webowners would do whatever is easiest for them, whatever benefits them. Not Dodo! She really tries to keep the users happy. She's always making new things and starting new events for the users! Dodo lets us make themes, make pixels, suggest resources, all sorts of things, even when getting a lot of people involved could make things a lot more complicated. DMB is great because Dodo is great :)

If DMB closed today, of course I'd be sad! I like to go to the boards whenever I'm online, to see how my DMB bucks are doing, to see if anyone responded to my threads, to play GAMES!! Going online would never be the same :P But if they did close, I know that the boards would long be remembered! The new boards would want to be like DMB - to accomplish what DMB accomplish - that would be their goal! That's it for me, folks. Dmb rocks! © 2003 AHE
