Well Well...been a while sine we put out a blog post, but hey LL is kind of slow, and well yeah. I was going to do some 10,000 members appreciation post,but real life hit, and umm yeah now we are 10700+ and welp it just looks weird.  That said, I still wanted to really push out some appreciation to all the content creators on KE that has made the site the success it is.  Most know I have been on the record of saying Content is the life blood of any game modding community, and TK17 is not exempt from that.  That said, I notice some people think content is just the stuff modders put out, while in fact content to us is everything the community puts forward.  From retextures, to the work people to do get that terrific video, or great screen is all content consumed on the site feeling the needs of different sets of members.

So with that I did want to call out some key members whose contributions to KE has put us where we are.

First in a league of his own, Driver, aka Hootie, aka Non-Admin Member #1.  While Driver does not have the most files out there or even the most pics, he has been key in ensuring the sites success.  As one of the initial members clued in on what we were doing, he has always had our backs and support and gone above and beyond to continue push the modding mission forward.  From his work on finding and identifying R9 rooms to migrate to KE, to his push to ensure key tutorials and documentation are memorialized on the site, Driver is one of those that has earned his #1 Member Badge.

Second "Those Hook5 Boys" LOL...or as some of you know Sadekhnd and Sexvision.  If you are a H5 users and you do not know who these 2 people are...well not sure what rock you have been sleeping under. These two have taken H5 and used it to produce what I like to call a shit ton of content.  I mean rooms galore.  In addition to this not only have they developed this content they have additionally created tools and applications to help ease new users into creating H5 content of their own.  I mean...when we say taking that modding vision and making it their own a thing, these two have lived by that moto.

Third the new school.  Hey if yo create a modding site and cannot develop new modders...well what is the point? So to the new school modders who came into the game lurkers and have moved into modding ranks big ups to that crew from vi363R and his stunning H5 Hairworks creations and clothing retextures, Sadekhd who has become a new found toy creation export, and Cross bringing his own personal flavor to the modding scene. If anything thank you for stepping in and stepping up.

Oh and to the old school.  Yeah no one can forget about our OG content creators as without them, will this would have been much harder. Kraegar, IBE, Aardy, Xalas, MrOllyK, CN-74, Berger..and all the of you have been doing this longer than you care to admit, your presence and support has always been huge helping to guide folks and just being that other Senior Member in the mix helpling to keep the ship moving.  Our appreciation goes without saying.

Finally thank you to all those members who provide that quality interaction in the community through all the content you take your time to produce.  While not perfect we have found Anti-Leeching experiment to be a tremendous success in driving interaction across the KE Community.
