It's no wonder you didn't notice it. Most of us were lurking below the surface......

That's what it means to be a Subsimmer. Congrats Neal for setting up such an awesome site!

If there was a 50 cent tax for becoming new member you would already be rich

Coincidentally, I was browsing last week through teh captain's roster to see the last activity of a long gone member and noticed how many people are registered but have only done ONE post :hmm: A few even have ZERO posts, yet are registered some time ago and their last activity is not far in the past.

And on the other side, Sailor Steve has done as many posts as 17000 other members together

Is there any way you can calculate how many posts do these BBS forums currently hold, and how much space that means in the HDD of the server? Would be interesting to know

Some people enjoy the content of the forums themselves, I don't post very often but I check the forums multiple times each day. Lots and lots of good stuff to read

Congradulations subsim.....

Task Force has to say that this is the best fourm he has seen so far, it has a good attitude. Not to many Inmature actions that could start arguements. (even though weve had acouple.)

That's something I was going to point out. An awful lot of people seem to sign up just so they can ask one question, and then never even respond to the answers. Do they really count as 'members'?

Hey, why pick on me? That other guy, Jimsomething - he has a lot more posts than me, and in a lot less time!
(Yeah, that's the ticket. Point the finger at somebody else and hope they go after him instead!)
