I am one
Just realised it's July, which means I've been on TA for over a year now. Has gone fast and a lot has changed. A year ago I didn't really know a lot about trance other than the cheesy crap that was played at The Opera House (Slinky venue) on Saturdays. None of my mates were into clubbing so it was rare I got out to a good night, usual weekend routine was Saturday night pub crawl, drinking until I collapsed (admittedly not long) and somehow finding my way home only to throw up on the front room carpet and pass out on the sofa. I used to promise myself that one day I would go to places like Gatecrasher, even if it meant going on my own 
So anyways fast forward a year and I've completly relocated ha;f way up the country to Chesterfield (about 30 mins from Gatecrasher) and have met 4 of the best mates I've ever had, plus about a hundred more through TA and Gatecrasher. All of which would never have happened if it wasn't for a) tranceaddict.com and b) (in alphabetical order) goldenarmZ, rainbowbrite, tu_face & volksjoolz being so fucking sound and wanting to meet up with somebody they hardly knew at Gatecrasher NEC last October.
So this is just to say cheers to swamper for running the site, coz it means a lot more than just somewhere to discuss music to a lot of people; and also to the four mentioned above, just for being who they are. *wipes a tear*
Am looking forward to the next 12 months. Hoepfully at least one of us will be famous by then and we can all get in places for free
