TOPIC: It's not as big of a deal now...

Post 1 of 20
I still feel among the priveleged few, though now there are so many. Anyway, this occasion, I think, gives me a few minutes to stand at the soap box.

I was on internet hiatus when this board got started, and this is why I didn't join here for a couple of months. Before that, I'd been on every message board related to the Features. I formerly was a Spongebath board addict.

In reflecting on that, I am really grateful to be here on this board where the group of people are a lot more fun than those buzzing around the 'What kind of car does each member of Self drive?' on that Self board. The group here is very appreciative of the band instead of complaining all the time.

I'd also like to thank Michael and BrianW for allowing us to run free and talk about whatevers and whathaveyous on this board without doing any censoring. They do a good job, and should be commended.

I'd also like to thank all the little people...you know who I'm talking about...those naked clowns we all adore.

Now I wonder,

If one passes 1,000 or so posts, does one's rank jump to 'Jesus' or 'Matt Pelham Hisself'?

I guess Ms. Carroll will be the one to find that one out for us.

And would they have more dots along with their name than the administrators?

I'd think that whole field would be filled with dots then. If the attained rank is indeed 'Jesus', then there may just be a cross there or something.

This is number #251 for me so you should see the 'Advanced Member' monicker under by username now.

Thanks to everyone for making this place so much fun and not being a bunch of jerks. (Except for you, YDDD... you're a jerk.)

I, too, became an advanced member today, but it was in Tom Foolery's new topic about the Watson girl. I will follow suit and say that you all really do kick some ass. Thanks for being interesting and diverse people.

I think that I will be passed in about one to one-and-a-half months. I am slowing down in my old age.

That's why I liked being a 'Full Member' better. It sounds even more pornographic than 'Advanced Member.'

This is kind of weird... a month after I became an "Advanced Member," I've done it again. Now that I've reached 300 posts, this board gives me a fifth dot under my name. Yippee!!! That puts me at #7 on the all time list. Iris is the luckiest member, though... he/she is number 37 on the list.
