As we quickly approach One Million Posts on the Board I think it is appropriate for us to thank Moonbeam and all the Mods for the work they have put in to making this board so successful! I have noticed we are approaching over 2000 posters also - Not many boards can reach these milestones so quickly. I know this thread is just a little premature but we should be to the one million mark before June - Only 1 and 1/2 years to achieve - about 2000 posts each and every day! Congratulations Moonbeam and Mods! We all do appreciate your hard work and efforts!

We're not quite at 2,000,000 yet, but getting close.  I blame those EEers.  |

I think she posted 90% of them. ;D Moon will never take any credit but without her we'd have lost everybody!! Thank you, Miss Moon and all the other mods and posters that make this place so wonderful!!!!   |

That is just too cool! Thanks, Virginian and the rest of you who are so much fun, and so full of energy, ideas, enthusiasm and interesting input. The boards have, indeed, grown more quickly than most. That's as much due to all of you and your posts and attitudes as to anything we do. You're a great group of folks!

Hopefully they are a step closer to understanding. |

Moonbean and the Mods - You are correct , it has a nice ring to it! I know this board has been a lot of work for Moonbeam and Merry Mods but the results speak for themselves! Thanks for all you guys do and a special thanks to Virgil for the countdown at the top of the page!  |

I guess this is a hint that I should get over to the Word Games - that's worth at least a 20 post contribution ;D.

I have noticed we are approaching over 2000 posters also - Not many boards can reach these milestones so quickly. We've actually had over 2K posters on the books, but I've been steadily deleting inactive accounts. And strange as it may be, I never noticed how many posts have been made until you mentioned it. However, it's you all who make this place the success it is.. Not me. I do thank all my mods, both past and present, for hanging in with me. I absolutely couldn't do it without you all. |

I saw that name in the list, but I don't think I ever had a conversation with him/her. Or put more simply: I don't remember him/her. Was he/she around for long? I take it (s)he was quite a character. |

He was here for a long enough time to make a complete PITA of himself. Of course, he did that wherever he went, and usually in short order. Very, very, very much a liberal Democrat and just as vocal about it. He just wouldn't hush, no matter what you said, or tried to do to get him to understand. Yep. Quite a character, indeed. I'd posted with him for years and often find myself wondering what he's up to these days. |
