...devotees.  Waaaay back in the last century when I became an amp in '94...there was no internet (maybe there was, I'd have to check with Al Gore), and so I never knew about these people.  Seems like I might have read an article in a magazine in the waiting room of my pros guy a long time ago, but I just chalked that up to a couple weirdos and a writer needing a story.  I never sought out any other amputee sites or forums until I joined this site a few weeks ago, and this is the first I've heard so much about devotees.  I checked out the posts in the devotee group here and read the wikipedia article and I gotta say...kinda strange.  But I guess I don't see why it's such a big topic.  Are there lots and lots of these people? I mean what is it that they do that is bad?  I saw some posts about people misrepresenting themselves as amps in order to manipulate their relationships with actual amps...but in what way?  I mean it seems to be that it's guys contacting women amps?  Me being such a handsome manly man...should I be on the lookout for these people contacting me?  What do I look for?  It's just weird and new to me, even though I've been an amp for 13 years now.  I like to think of myself as pretty well informed on things, but this is news to me and I guess I don't quite know what to make of it.
