I just wanted to thank all of the new members who have really spiced up the boards lately, as well as all the old members who continue to contribute great discussion and content every day.

September is officially our most active month (by a huge margin) since March of this year!

Why is this impressive? Because forums are more or less a dead software. Social networking is done via Facebook and LinkedIn. Communities prosper on Reddit and 4Chan. Tech support is the last place a forum will be helpful for in the new age of instant gratification.

All that's left are hobby and design forums!

P.S. When posting, have you tried changing the "message icon" field? You can select one from any of the following icons to display next to your threads! It really makes your topics stand out from the others.

Good to hear!  :D

I suspected that it was going to be up there on the list of most active months, seems like every time I signed in the PCP had a lot of new content and the Talk Park is getting used more thanks to John B reviving some older threads. Good to see that almost 2 years later and this forum is still going strong!

You are welcome. :) Getting bored and bringing new life to old threads is fun.
Do you guys even read this? Like I could have the meaning of life here and I doubt you would know it.

You still amaze me to this day! While Don clearly is the backbone of the board with those crazy good posts, and John gets work done in Deck Battles, it's awesome to see that the first staffer I ever promoted is still around.

After almost a decade of running forums, that kind of thing is generally unheard of.  :karrit:

Aww shucks,  ;D

It's easy to stick around when the community is so awesome! Without this place, my collection and knowledge of playing cards would be greatly reduced. Even with the hustle and bustle of life I'll always try to find time to reply to a few posts, answer PM's and hang out with you guys.

If we get about 500 more posts in the next week, this will be the most active month of the year.

Well I've only been here 2 weeks, but it feels like much more....I think that's a good thing, lol

But really, a big thanks to everyone who's put up with me....I mean, helped me on this new endeavor. I've learned a lot, and still have a lot to learn, but you guys have fun with not only playing card discussions, but with the off topics as well.

Kudos and thanks again, looking forward to hanging around for a while  :D

I think we will easily get that 500 post. We have gained a lot of great new members like ronyo_faukx, Froggo, and Sparks making this forum come to life.

Although if there had been a United Zippoist, I don't think Sparks would be here  :D
