Though the new law has certainly been a damperin the hobby sphere we have to look at a couple things:

1. Major reset to the hobby...a lot of bad blood has tremendously decreased on the public side. Yes there are still those that continue to harass and douche but, we don't have much of that going on especially with the old site trolls.

2. New sites and tools: Twitter has exploded, Switter has become a huge service on bringing a worldwide community.

3. New opportunities: Since the laws passing, I managed to branch out and meet some wonderful and talented ladies that have helped me obtain verified status and p411 oks.

I'm glad I pre screened and chatted with many ladies prior to the old site shutdown. Being prepared hasn't dampen my mood to hobby.
