vpFae started vpFREE because he believed that a free video poker forum
would be a valuable service to the video poker community.
Giving something back to the community has continued to be the
primary motivating factor.

Well vpFREE was a Christmas present to the VP community which launched on
December 26, 2001. I was still a suscriber of the LVA and its fairly new online
Forums. Some poster provided a link over there to this new entity a couple
months later. I do believe I signed-up for my first Yahoo! Group in March 2002
(plus or minus a month) and found the 1.0 Version of vpFree.
The site kept expanding with solid VP related information and links to
non-bogus VP sites. The Regional groups were added somewhere along the line.
vpFae and his lovely bride started organizing and informally hosting these
monthly buffet meets. I got to meet them at one such function at MSS in
2003(?), along with several other members.
When he turned the keys of vpFREE over to the new administration the founding
father decided to become a bit more incognito.
There has never been any hidden agenda.
Thanks vpFae and the new regime for providing and maintaining vpFREE.
