Kept noticing all the new members coming into the repair forum. Took a look at the current count...74,761. Closing in on the 75K mark. That's a lot of humanity and broke boats..... :D

Re: Membership Getting Up There

I wonder where the predictions stand on when iboats would reach 100k members. There was a thread that allowed predictions and would award a prize for the closest guesser.<br /><br />I think the membership was right about or approaching 50k at the time the contest was initiated.

Looks like a bunch have already lost.Only 5 months left on my prediction and I too will join the ranks of the losers. :)

Re: Membership Getting Up There

I drifted in Sept. '04 as member 49285. You do the math. This is a good time to thank all the old-timers hangin' around at the dock giving out that solid advice. I don't post much since I was able to get my old hulk running good thanks to all the great expertise here. Yeah, there's a lotta broke boats but there's probably just as many that have been fixed by now. Not too many forums that are actually growing either. And not too many that don't regress into a cesspool of flaming and backbiting. 100K is a no-brainer. :p

It is awesome to have watched (and still watching) the membership grow. Never in my mind did I think this site would grow so quickly. 5 years is a long time, but time flies why your having fun.

Best start reading up on matter/antimatter proton drives or we may not be able to help much up in the repair forums.<br />Do you think iboats will deliver????<br /><br /> :D :D
