Why I am I running or in my case, running for re-election?

I ran for TalkBoard 2 years ago because I thought I could "do some good" and to give something back* to the community which has helped me** in an incredible way since I joined in 2004 and I'd like to continue to help. Have I done a good job? Have I pi$$ed people off? I can only let the members decide on both tho when I comes to pi$$ing people off, if I have done that, I'd like it to be a good thing as sometimes you have to do that in order to get your point across-whether it be in the private TalkBoard forum, the TalkBoard, public forum or any other forum, I will argue the issue and point out things which I disagree with and/or need to be changed (tho I will never attack a member for their point of view-the point of view, yes but never the member)

*give something back more than Tootsie-Popsİ

**and kept me in the will with goalie-parents by having them ride in the pointy end of the plane
