1000 Members! Well almost!!

[lcummins]

Well, here we are again at 1000 members (soon)! We broke that mark right before the big EZBoard blow-up when we lost a few hundred members. So Dave, 1000 strong (almost) and growing!!! :chew

Cheers and congrats on a great board and great members! All the influx of Star Wars collectors were a concern at first, but I must say, some of our best members are from the Star Wars side and it is a better board with you guys on board!! :maul

Here's to the next 1000!!!!

Congratulations on the 1000 members people of Freaksville. Nine months since the board shifted here and numbers dropped to like 600. So it has been a remarkable recovery, mostly brought about by the Star Wars fans. I had expected them to be rabid, and they are. Looks like the ones that joined are a good mob. That said, well done to all the long timers that are the able to keep their collecting hobby intact. That's just amazing.

Yeahh..its a great board with great members....even the not -so-great members like Collector freak has toned down a bit... Congrats Dave and fellow freaks !!!!

 

[creecher]

Good onya Shai. Can you tell us what you mean? Someone has to do the job, and if he goes, are you going to do it? He's the best bast we have ever had. :emperor Hmmm prickly.

I'm proud to be one of the 1000. Being new here, I don't know the history of Freaks. What caused the shift and why were so many members lost?



Congrats to Creecher for 4000 posts!

Definitely no better place than here. Been wondering how long it would take to hit 1000, guess I'm about to get my answer.

We used to be on EZBoard... they had a big hack or something and lost most of their boards... didn't have good backups, so we lost a ton of threads and members... Dave had enough with EZBoard (this wasn't their first problem!) and moved to this software on (I may be wrong here) his own server. And here we are now!!! :chew

I spend a lot of time here, and I wouldn't if it weren't such a cool "place"! I joined this great community last september and soon, I'll be writing my 1,000th post (big congratz to your 4,000th Creech!). Hope this board remains a place where idea's and opinions can be discussed and shared in an interesting and polite way. And, as far as I can tell, Dave does a fantastic job on the technical side of this story, he's helped me and others quite a few times. Thanks for that!

I am a proud member just finding the board about the same time Jedi Luke went on preorder. I have to say it is a fun place to hang out. Unlike some of the other boards I go to where all they do is complain, bitch at each other and put each other down its nice to be someplace where people actually are civil to each other and have good fun discussions.

I'm still here

1000 eh? wow. Thats pretty cool :chew I'm glad I joined the 'freakshow' Iv'e only been here since Jan but have had a blast reading people's posts, views and rants. + I seem to be getting a lot of great 'heads up' about various stuff I otherwise wouldn't have found out about if I hadn't logged in. So I guess Im trying to say thanks to Dave and all the freaks who reside here.

I wasnt a member of the EZBoard, but I'am very happy to bemember here....I feel like this is the best board on the net with the most friendly members....I am proud to be here and I want to thank Dave for his efforts.....

Thanks Dave.....and thanks to all the freaks out there!!!!

 

[lcummins]

One more member to go!!! Will it be today? tomorrow? :chew

 

[DarkArtist81]

wow....I had not idea we had that many members... Being one of the Star Wars fans that came on around the time Luke went up for preorder, I never got to see the old board. But, nevertheless I am glad to have found this place. It's been fun times, through and through. Always cool to come on here after work and discuss the figures and random crap....

I've never had so much fun on a board before and never met so many members that I can actually see as my friends. You guys rock, and Dave.. you are doing great work here... thanks for giving us a place to hang out and chat.

I actually am about to hit 1000 posts and I cannot believe it... To think that I'm already getting up there... wow..

 

[DarthRamuk]

Err.....I'm rather new here but I'm enjoying every moment that I'm here. It's nice to see people looking out for each other.

I feel right at home and this board rocks! :chew

 

[Darklord Dave]

Yep, we were up well over 1000 when EZBoard had it's meltdown. Only the faithful made the transition over here, so we lost a lot of people that had registered but weren't frequent posters. My goal was to be at 1000 by SDCC and we'll certainly make that. Maybe I should refine it to 1100 by then?

At any rate - it's the members that make a board successful - so thanks to all of you!

:chew

Thank you Dave for hosting this rag tag bunch of Collectors.
