It will be the first birthday of this wonderful forum on Tuesday. At that point there will have been some 58,000 posts - ie. in excess of 1,000 per week.

Let's all say a massive thankyou to Duncan Reed for his efforts in getting this thing off the ground in no time at all when Communicata precipitously cut us adrift.

Let's also remember not to get complacent, and take each other for granted - we each need to devote just a little time to ensuring the site stays lively.
For instance, it's 6:30pm and so far today there have been only 8 posts!

A million thanks Duncan for your efforts in keeping us together, and for your continuing efforts in administering the site. Well done mate - thanks a million.

Hey....can't we do something Spektackerler for the BBS birthday party.

Haven't a clue like....something that never been done before....over to you.

"FOR HE'S A JOLLY GOOD FELLOW, FOR HE'S A JOLLY GOOD FELLOW, FOR HE'S A JOLLY GOOD FELLO.0.0.0WWWWWWW, AND SO SAY ALL OF US !!!" ....doesn't seem quite adequate and not in the eclectic spirit of our virtual team/extended family.

I'm lucky if I get on to lurk at this point in time but I'll do my best if youse lot can be inspired

A Year on the 6th of March, eh ? Bloody great..thanks Dunx and every single one of you.

Well i'm doing my bit, I've put a nice new link from my front page to here to try to get some fresh users.

We do seem to have attracted a number of new contributors recently, but a number of the 'golden oldies' seem to be visiting less frequently.

There are still some excellent discussions on here though, and it is still far and away the best Toon bbs.

Thanks Duncan. Living abroad, I really don't know what I would do if it wasn't for this forum. Thank you to everyone else as well for making this such a great place to be.

Thanks Dunc, and also thanks Clarky, for taking the trouble to remind back sliding owld gits like me that we'd better not take this too much for granted by just showing up when it suits. although in my defense, I can get here only when I'm (whisper it) at work.

I hate to make excuses but I don't have a computer at home and the only place I can post is at work (like most of us) I do my best, I think I visit the site probably in excess of 10-15 times a day. Thanks Dunx for putting my career on hold, I am scared to leave in case I can't post any more.

I'm raising my cup of coffee to Duncan as I speak. Ahh.. The benefits of being a one-finger typist.
