Thank you all, thank you. I would like to thank all the people who helped me get here. In alphabetical order.....


ME.

Mike Wong.

Thank you.
They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong

But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red

I found that my posts between 600 and 1000 came in a little over a fortnight or so.

OR something. One minute I was a little ole Jedi, the next I had Jedi Master then a custom title...

I believe I broke 1400 twice, because some of my posts were deleted.

I say we celebrate by changing the ranks. Newbie is 0-99, Youngling is 100-499, Padawan is 500-999, Knight is 1000-2499, Master is 2500-4999, and Council Member is 5000+.

I remember my 500th post clearly. I was one of the first Jedi, here. After David, and Mr. Bean (GAT was a Sith Apprentice, at the time).

Corngrapple-latiums! Ah muss, ah said ah muss cornfess, ah never did see nobody what was happier to be a Jedi! (Except for that guy at the theatre when AotC was about to open for the first time, and that was only until somebody hit him with a well-aimed Fudge Sundae it wasn't me)
