I just want to express thanks.  It's easy to take so many things for granted, a big flaw of mine, and simple expression of gratitude can mean a lot to a lot of people.

First to PA and the Developers, and all who directly make this game.  Without you, I wouldn't even have a game and a community to be thankful for!

Second to all the players who play.  I know 99.99% won't even see this post, but, y'all, simply by being in game, bring it to life in a way that is profound!  Even if you're just standing by a storage keeper, still, that's an ACTUAL person populating this world.  Simple presence bring this game to life on a profound level!

Lastly to those who post on all forums.  All you care enough to take time to express your thoughts and opinions on how to make this game better.  Such passion only helps things improve, even if it generates a debate lasting years.  We can't get anywhere without passion.  And even the most contrary opinions can help one see their opinion in a clearer light.  

So to everyone involved in Black Desert Online, 

Thank you!
