1000th post

[Kapitan_Phillips]

Seems like only yesterday I was peeling potatoes and making crappy fritters in the Subsim galley. Oh how times have changed!!

Several months and a thousand posts later, this place continues to harbour (pun intended, however poor) the best of the best of the internet community, a place free of spam, a place (almost) free of flaming, trolling and general mischief, and a place where your opinions are held in the highest regard and issues are debated maturely.

Its funny, when I think of forums on the internet, I always think of teenage fanboys of the X-Box or PS2 endlessly ranting and swearing about how this is better than that, how one game is crud in a box, amongst other things. But its different with Subsim. Subsim is a place where adults (and mature teens like myself) can discuss simulations, current world events, games, sports and Neal's zanified lighthouse shirt in an environment that allows people to be open, yet keeps immaturity to reasonable levels.

The people you meet here are incredible, and to think that you'd never have met them had you not stumbled on the humble little .com, for a relatively niche market, and ingratiated yourself with its community. To everyone I've talked to, regardless of topic, regardless of outcome, each and every one of you, I consider you all close friends.

So here is to another 1000 posts, my friends. Here's to the future of Subsim, the future of naval simulations, and most importantly, you all.

Only 1000? Just kidding! Congrats!

Looking at you, I think I even have a lot of catching up to do!

I remember that over at GTAForums.com there was this guy that made a big freaking speech thread for his 30 thousandth post. A real twat, nobody liked him. Total spammer.

But this all seems in good taste. Heres to ya.

I remember I got my 1000th post somewhere in the SH4 section. Not much of a party for me.

Good News and bad news about thread counts:

Good News
Mega bucks are available for those good enough to make it to post 10,000

Bad News
Neal resets the post count back to zero to keep his crew humble
