    Ah, what a miracle growth. I wonder who it is? He/She should get a 7000th member honorary gift or something. Someone may have a spare copy of Pool of Radiance or something.

    Anyhow, it's great to see this community (or empire) grow. Up to 10000!

    The number of members who have never posted at all is actually about 1900.

    I think there must have been some members deleted hence the disparity between member number and number of members. For example, there is no member #1 (he vanished under mysterious circumstances).

    Hooray for all people with even hundreds. Now, if ms. and mr. 1000, 2000, 3000, and so on, would post, I'm sure we all would feel a bit better. ;)

    Btw, 7000 is nothing yet; wait till it reaches something like 27 000... like one, other board... and we can start talking. :roll:

    SP is too exclusive to want to reach 27,000.

    There aren't that many people in the world with the required standards of intelligence and refined taste.

    :cool:

    Just looked to see whether anyone had taken advantage of having one of the trophy member numbers. Apparently not:

    Member #100 (Ommelan) had 1 (one) post, while
    Member #1000 (St Genem) had 4 (four).

    Strangely, Member #666 (BottomFeeder) had 0 (zero) posts, and what's more, identified him/herself as an attorney from California! BottomFeeder is clearly the :evil: of SP!

    And you're right; there is no Member #1. Perhaps someone should ask Member #2 (Tal):

    Tal: "I am Number 2."
    The Prisoner: "Who is Number 1?"
    Tal: "You are Number 6."
    The Prisoner: "I am not a number; I am a free man!"
    Tal: BWAHAHAHAHAHA.....

    But looking through the member lists, Member #110 (Sir Belisarius) seems exceptionally well numbered. Bravo!

    Okay, if we just hit number 7000, then what the hell is this? :confused: :confused: :confused:

    So 7100 is replacing 7000 now? Apparently the numbers are a little different.

    Jaguar - did you even read the previous few posts?

    To repeat: there are some member numbers missing, such as #1 and #5 and 98 others.

    I read them, but I assumed that the numbers weren't actually removed, just closed. I guess I just made an a$$ of you and me. (Get it, ass-u-me)

    Ah well, ...

    HORRAY SP!!! :D

    Maybe they skip numbers in order to make it look like there are more members (like one little german political party with an imfamus member once did)

    [will you send bots to kill me now?]

    Anyone who doesn't know why there's no member #1 by now should be shot...

    Hell, isn't it in the FAQ?
