50,000!!!!!
Afternoon Everyone,
We have just passed 50,000 posts on the site and i felt it appropriate to thank each and every one of you for the time and effort you take to contribute to this place.
When Hero started this in January we just wanted a new place to discuss our favourite sports and offer an alternative to 606. It's brilliant to see that we continue to encourage more and more members to come across and share thier views.
We are growing day by day and it's thanks to you members (and Hero) that we go from strength to strength. I genuinely hope we get to continue enjoying this place for years to come.
On behalf of all the Admins and Moderators, thank you.

Re: 50,000!!!!!
Thank you to everyone who has contributed so far to the huge success of this site. It really does truly astound me that just over 2 months ago I put a post up on 606 to a couple of mates to say I’d put together a forum so we could still chat together after 606 closed and its snowballed to this.
I really want to give a big thank you to the admin and mod team, unlike the BBC set of mods, they do this not for pay but purely to make the site run smoothly, it’s a thankless task most of the times and often they have to deal with heated debate, abuse and worse, I doff my cap to all of you.
I also want to thank you. I’m sure this place took a little getting used to, it’s not 606 but I hope that what we’ve created is the best possible alternative (some even whisper in the corridors that it’s better!).
Please continue to spread the word, not just to those that remain on 606 until the bitter end, but through other means, facebook, twitter, blogs, youtube etc. If you are aware of any sites that would be interested in mutual links on our referral section then please let one of the admin or mod team know, we’ll happily look into it.
We can only continue to grow and evolve through you, you’re the most vital ingredient in any forum so here’s to 100,000 posts in the coming months!

Come on mate. I've just mastered the complexities of walking and chewing gum at the same time. A calculator is asking for a bit much.

I've really enjoyed it so far on here and there is a really nice atmosphere. Long may it continue. <bubbly>
However ... there is too much use of THAT smiley on this thread.

Congratulations guys, I must admit when this was discussed on 606 a few months ago I never thought anyone would go through with it but it has all turned out better than I ever expected

We've actually paid to remove adverts Sean.
We plan to keep this as a work friendly environment. We are not in this to make money, we are in this to debate the sports we all love.

Yes, cause 150,000,000 people want to join here and talk about sport!
Could you imagine the amount of moderators we would need JUST for a Manny v Floyd thread!

It is more a matter of interest. You are terribly defensive of your baby.
I actually quite like the site these days, I was just wondering with increasing traffic levels, it would be a natural progression to make some corn.

It's not "my baby". I was invited to be an admin to help out the people who set this great place up.
Actually it was your second comment (about Zuckerberg) that really made me think you were being cynical

Re: 50,000!!!!!
Sean, Surely you can understand why we are somewhat defensive when such comments are being made.
A lot of work has been done to get the site to where it now stands and a lot of work will continue to be put in to push us to the next level.
Some of the Admins in the team have encountered a cost to make this the site we want it to be and so it is a bit of a slap in the face when someone then makes a comment about us possibly using the site as a source of income.
I would say that our response is quite natural.
