This board means a lot to us, and we are amazed that we have reached our 10th Anniversary!
This board has come a long way, through good times and bad ( we had plenty of both ), and w're still going strong.
This past year has been great for Matt (thanks to a really intense storyline. But hey, the critics finally took notice! ) and for us as well. We all love coming here and posting and having a lot of fun in the process.
This board might not have a lot of posters, but we do have a small group of people that are nice, funny and very friendly, which makes for a good atmosphere. 10 years is a long time for a board on to be around, and we are very proud to have made it this far, and are looking forward to many more years!

Carmen & Jess

My thoughts on the board:
It is hard to express how much this board means to me. It seems like yesterday I was lurking the board, and trying to work up the courage to finally join in. I didn't know anything about posting at a forum when I first joined, and it is so crazy to me that I have been modding this board for over 4 years now, time truly does fly. This board has been through a lot over the years, with loss of posters and the ups and downs of The Good Wife, it has been a crazy wild ride. I have met some amazing friends here over the years, including my amazing comod Jess, who has become one of my best online friends. I couldn't keep this board running without her. We may tease each other a lot, but that is the way it has been on this board for years and there is no stopping that now.
With how hard it can be to keep boards going on these days, I am so incredibly proud to be at this amazing milestone. 10 years is a long time, and we have been able to keep this board alive with out having active game threads, which is a huge accomplishment by itself. Here is to the next 10 years

Why I love Matt
I started watching GG the first time, right before the Logan character was introduced, which was perfect timing. I was intrigued by Matt the first time I saw him as Logan and my obsession started right there. He had amazing blonde hair, gorgeous eyes, and a smile that melts right through you. But it was more then that, when I watched or read his interviews, he was so thoughtful and caring and was so passionate about his work, his passion was infectious. Everyone who knows me knows how picky I am, so it is remarkable that my obsession with Matt has stayed strong for over 10 years now, and says a lot abut him. Matt truly has something special about him, and I love seeing him succeed as a actor and watching his star rise. Matt is so humble and truly appreciates his fans and all the success he has been given. His success continues to gain momentum, and I am proud to say I have supported him from he beginning, and will continue to support him no matter what.

My thoughts on the board:

Wow. 10 years. That makes me feel so old. Sometimes it really feels like forever ago since I joined Fanforum and became a regular user here on this board. Just because a german TV network decided to go on a weird long break after airing the GG season 4 final and I just NEEDED to know how it would continue. Which lead me to the current episode that aired back then in the USA. Wedding Bells Blues. And from the first one moment I saw that smirk on his face I was intrigued by his character, by him as actor. At first I only stayed at the german thread (which I opened MUHAHAHAHA) cause let's be real at that point I was really awkward with my english and pretty much hated that language But people were so welcoming that I slowly branched out to different threads which in turn made me like Matt even more. Over the years users came and went, I found friends that I still talk too even if they moved on from their life on Fanforum, and I found my crazy co-mod Carmen, who I just loved to tease and annoy 24/7. But I really only do that to people I actually care about. Yes I am weird. That is a running theme. Sometimes it is odd to think about a time when this forum will be gone, so I try to avoid thinking about it and just enjoy the time I have here. Cause let's face it, his board is such a important part of my life and I wouldn't miss it for a world.

Why I love Matt...

Let's be real for a second. I now could give you like a hundred reasons why I love him. He is that great. He is talented, smart, good looking, down-to-earth, a great friend and co-star. Someone to look up to cause he puts everyone's needs before his own. He likes sports, music and video games and a easy to talk guy with a smile always on his face. But in reality it only comes down to one point. The love for his fans. He would do almost everything for them. And he proved that to me a few years ago and for that I will always be supporting him. Cause no matter how stressed he is or busy in the end he will always be there for his fans no matter what and try to do everything to make them happy. It doesn't matter if those things are selfies, autographs or calling a weird german girl he has never met before just because she was bummed that she couldn't meet. He is that guy that after hearing something like that asks for a phone number to call said girl so they can have a nice chat. Not a interview, just a normal phone call, where he laughs at your stupid jokes and actually really cases about the things you say and even about your life. Yes he actually ask you stuff about you, wants to get to know you. And he doesn't do it because he feels like he has to, he does it because he really wants to get to know that person on the phone. Yes he is that great.
