8 months ago today...

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Unofficial Newcastle United Football Club BBS : One Thread

...the Greenspun bbs was started up by Duncan and saved this wonderful forum from extinction.
In those 8 months we've made some 36,309 posts - only 9 of which have been made today!
Let's all remember we have to keep posting to keep this thing alive and interesting.

Hearty congrats to Dunx for keeping it going. For all you lurkers out there it is important that you post on here to keep it going or one day you'll have nothing to read and it will be too late!

Only 6.4% eh.....it was nearly 10% at one point :)) I guess I've just been lazy recently.....either that or there's no-one posting smut anymore!!

Yep Gav - I'm afraid you're not inserting as much as you used to.

I think you were the only one posting smut ;-)
Thanks for giving us all a home Duncan

The likes of Jacko, ITK and Min would have to agree....not forgetting General Jonno of course :-)

Thanks again for all your hard work Dunx. Any stats on the average number of postings on a thread before Gav drags it down to the gutter?! ;-))

It was indeed a good effort by our red friend.....I get the feeling that he was being sarcastic with it however?

Lr i think you're great , but Dunx you're evn better thank you for making my life a lot more interesting .. god knows what we'll be like on the 1 year anniversary ; - )

Well, the FA Cup 6th round ties are scheduled for March 10 - the closest match to the bbs first anniversary. Could be a good opportunity for a celebration - Manchester would be a good location!

If, by some faint chance we were to be knocked out before that, we play at Everton on the 3rd (or 4th, depending on TV, of course). They usually have plenty of tickets, so that would be the alternative location.
