    I just noticed that, as of this post, SP is 10 registered members away from 8000. As if that weren't enough, Tal appears to be 9 posts away from 10000!

    Congrats to SP, and let the countdown begin!

    Wahey! Another pointless statistical thread. How many of these have we had?

    Maybe we are reaching a milestone of 100 such threads. That would be something to celebrate! :beer:

    If Tal just did some spring cleaning, we would be at 500, tops.

    I bet something special will happen when Tal hits 10000! Maybe he'll turn into a giant robot the size of Slovenia, crush all the armies of the world and conquer the world in the name of the SP Empire!...Or perhaps not.

    Wow, I leave for a few hours, and this thread descends into the deepest pits of cynicism! It's like someone peed in your cornflakes this morning... I for one won't fall for it: your cynicism won't get *me* down!
    :banana: :banana: :banana:

    (BTW countdown watch: 9 more SP members and 8 more Tal posts)

    It's not cynicism. I once started a pointless statistic thread about the day we reached 250,000 posts in total and how long it would take to get there based on current daily average post rates. We love pointless statistics, otherwise there would be no such thing as 'post count'. :square:

    Nine (9) more to go! This is bad when we turn into statistic watchers. Hate statistics but I keep watching that count go up. True most don't post but I bet a lot come and lurk.

    Indeed! I can see it happening. We have been feeding him with our powers all these years; when enough has been accumulated, Tal will rise to reign as the uber-Lord (actually that should be über :mad: ). It has been preordained the era is upon us when he acts for the 10.000th time.
    Someone should cast 'Know Alignment' so we can learn what kind of regime awaits us. It will be a lawful one - that much is sure. :p

    Well, I'm over 10.000 now... and I wouldn't even know it if I hadn't seen this mentioned here. I must be one of the few people here who aren't obsessed with their post counts. Oh, and the regime will be Chaotic Good, as usual.

    Where did that spammer get so many posts in such a short time? Last time I checked, he was in a safe distance from 10K. :eek: :shake:

    Must have something to do with the recent forum splits. :lol:

    The question is how YOU remember it, being a July 2004-er and all.

    Caleb, some of us were actually one of the dreaded species called "Lurkers" before we registered on these boards. ;)

    Yeah, but for 4 years? I was one for 1 year, and I thought that was LONG.
