The Forum Had It's First Birthday Party

[ECO]

but....someone forgot to send out the birthday party invites.

Board started: 12 Feb 2009 05:57 pm

When the forum first started it was actually started on another one of my sites until we decided to use the present URL's (jamaicatravelforum.com & jamaicaNtravelforum.com). I just renewed the URL's/domain names for a couple more years and that is when the little OMFG bell rang in my head. Most forums don't last a month, fewer last 3-6 months and only a few make it to see their first year.

After a year we have:

Almost 100 members (99) and the membership list is "pruned" once in a while to delete spammers and zero post members.

13,400 posts, even though the number is closer to 20,000 factoring in the two times the forum had database/hacks.

Around 10% of our active members were here when this forum first started.

We get around 8000 visits a month that look at 66,000 pages

Thanks everyone for keeping this place alive

Please don't mention prunes again. I don't need yet another reminder that I'm probably the oldest one here.

Happy Bday to US

By the way.. is the letter R or the letter C missing from the title???

[ECO]

Nope, we don't celebrate age related mile stones, we celebrate "bithdays". A bithday is a Greek unit of measuring.......a bith is one cycle of 4 seasons that begin and end on the same day. The "day" part is when the measuring period is up.

If you believe that I have an excuse for everyone of my 200 typos of this forum.

Time to edit the title before more people notice my error
