Let me just mark this historical event with a little post, right here.
On 2001-11-01, 11:42 GMT, the Newbie W-Cid made the 10,000th post to this message board. My my, it has grown considerably since the beginning. Why, I remember the good old days when the whole message board consisted of a hand-written CGI script by yours truly. And before that, when it hardly even deserved the name 'message board'.
Well anyway. This board would never have become what it is today if it weren't for the true believers in it (you know who you are). You provided consistency when the laws of physics argued for complete chaos ^^
Oh, and of course, if it weren't for the rest of the users here, we probably wouldn't even have reached 5000 posts now. So, if you are one of those individuals who think post counts and site hits matter, go ahead and feel proud of yourself
