You know, I've not spied one of these threads around in donkeys - maybe they've been outlawed have they? Ah well, lets get it underway anyway. :smile:

I, darksnowman, joined the cube-europe absolute yonks ago. My decision came after ages of lurking before I finally thought I might have something worth saying. As we all know, Cube-Europe went on to bigger and better things and has become what we now know it to be... a non-xorbit based and less problematic community.

Ah yes, I've seen many names come and go over my time. I guess I must still be a lurker or I'd have reached this milestone a good while ago, I'm not even sure I reached 500 before the switch.

Thanks, then, would go to anyone around here who has created decent threads and/ or made good comments around the place. Without them I'd not visit and wouldnt have anything to post responses to. Thank you all, and keep up the good work.

I'll be on my way then, to the meaningless spam thread, to get my next grand of posts underway. I leave this thread to everyone else who has not yet reached the 1,000 post mark so you can notch up one more for yourselves.

Ciao! :hehe:

..it'll be a while before I'm at 1,000.. I too lurked in the shadows in the cube-europe days (and came runner up in a competition I shall not mention because I got needlessly hammered for it in the 'comments' section)

..but as I sit here with my little Donkey Kong figure all the way from Japan, I'll say thanks for the contribution and being almost influencial (not really :heh:) in my purchase of Skies of Arcadia..

..give us another 1,000 (hopefully a lot of them in the online thread complaining about how much I crush you on the DS..)

..nice one, dude :awesome:

Well done darksnowman. You probably missed Solitanze's 'I've reached 1000 posts so now I'm leaving. Not really, I'm back now' thread the other week. :heh:

Telly, I did indeed spy Solitanze's thread. Cant mind if I posted in it though.

I don't think this is my farewell thread... but you never know. :shock:

I remember the good old days when post counts were displayed next to posts, and nobody with less than 1000 was taken seriously.

Yeah Fields, I hope that my status and credibility are now acceptable around here.

Retro, for what its worth, I think I'll check out your Rabbid Blog - if nothing else it should give me a chuckle. :heh: Post count-wise, I'm coming for you too boy!

I'd prefer Amigo.

I prefered groupie. I never got to be a groupie. :(

AshMat
24-01-2007, 07:16 PM
Yewah, wasn't it Ashley that thought up Aficionado, then a bunch of people voted for it for some reason..

Ashley
24-01-2007, 07:20 PM
Nobody liked groupie, and I suggested a few (I think, maybe it was just aficionado) and people agreed.

Amigo means friend. Aficionado means fan. Thus its more applicable.

Aficionado is hard to say.

Plus it would be nice to have more tags after you reach 1000 posts...

Charlie

Current suggestions are...

5,000 - Hardcore
7,500 - Legendary
10,000 - Loser
15,000 - Loner
20,000 - I officially have no life
25,000 - Seriously dude, WTF?

How about Forum Man-bitch for the gays.

And forum superking for me, just, because you want to.


Also, moogle, i like the way you think ;)

darksnowman
24-01-2007, 07:45 PM
Well... I was just saying.

You should adapt to other cultures a bit more. Twould broaden your horizons. :heh:

Calm Down!!! Granted Flink has more posts but hes an admin.
However, i think Retro has the best 'posts to threads ratio' he has replied almost 6000 times but has only made 61 threads. Phenominal! *pats him on back*

Hey, I just thought that we need a Quote of the Day/Month/Year thread. Someone go make it, i cant be arsed.

I have absolutely no idea...wtf. I swear I had like 500-1000 less posts than that.

Although, bear in mind, staffers have access to other boards, too. So, more boards to post in.

Crikey.

Anyway, well done Mr. Snowman. :)

Yeah, you have a fair point there. Plus, been finding it a bit hard to sleep, so I've found myself online at god knows what hour posting on here.

Meh, it's not like every post of mine is spam in an attempt to raise the post count.

People who have over 1,000 posts should be able to set their own user title.

Nice posting, by the way.

I second that.

25-01-2007, 06:32 PM
Yeah it might be nice to get a user specific title, but for the time being I shall just enjoy being among the Aficionado's.

Maybe if we're looking to be more than that we needa make more of an effort to impress those who govern these boards. They could judge how much quality we contribute to discussions, I'm sure theres plenty o' spamming attempts even with that ten character limit they've got going on. :heh:

MoogleViper

I'd like a custom user title, but if everyone had them it would spoil the fun of it. Just put something in your sig or something if you're that bothered.

Everyone will now go to my thread in the wii forum and help me out on buying one.

1. No because theres too many people.

2. It would involve having to create a new user group who can have custom titles. Then every user who passes 1000 posts would have to be manually changed to that usergroup. FAFF!

Can't you make the limit 2000? Then there's only about 20-30 that need changing.

I say nay to your post count elitism.

/ nando /
25-01-2007, 10:39 PM
..yeh.. I guess if there was a certain amount of posts you had to make to be able to create your own custom title, you'd get a lot more spamming from people trying to reach the post count target so they can put 'tEh RoXxOrs' below their name..

..best left alone I reckon :heh:

Well maybe...to be honest I'd work to be a mod just so I can have 'Vaccuum Cleaner' under my name.

Simple, but it works.
