That is such a good mentality, to just want to progress and learn new things. At first, I got sucked into music jams and my competitive drive made me want to become first in the ranking. Over time, I have given up on that goal and that gave me such a relief - I now want to improve my skills, have fun talking to people here whom I sometimes would even call a 'friend', and listen to other creations to inspire me! In other words, I am here to stay for a while :)
And, if I knew beforehand that "I'll try to write a longer comment than yours," I would have not made my comment this long! Thanks though, and feel free to be critical of anything :D
