Only about 75 or so until we have 10,000 members here. It doesn't matter how many are active it's the principle. 10,000 members,when I started off here in Ironworks I tnever thought I would see the day. What are your views?

Number 10000 should get a reward. :D Or at least a big group hug :D

Wooooo! 10 000 members!!!!!!! I remember when I joined it was only at 6000 someodd. That was in February!!!!! :eek:

I'm member# 4919 or something. That still makes me a newbie next to Mel or Epona or some of the others.

I'm member 6789 (i think). I'm newbier than you [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

<font color="lightblue">Wow. It was only 6 months ago we were celebrating 6000 members and now 10k ?? Speak of rapid growth... </font>

Im also something like 4000..

I dont like that 10k members thing that much.. i like it more when its.. small and cozy [img]smile.gif[/img] .
Plus, my connection speed will get f***ed up more often

I feel superior!!! Mwahahaha! [img]graemlins/evillaughter2.gif[/img]

I just barely snuck into the first 2000 members. ;)

Um....Your Member # 1901 :D

<font color=FFFFFF>Yeah or the member# 10000 should get a beer! [img]smile.gif[/img] </font>

i'm too lazy to see what member i am, but i joined yesterday... so i'd say i'm probably member 9920 or something. *shrugs*

K, I CHECKED. 9963 is my number, man i'm new.

Wow.. from the days of the Blue Board till now I never thought we'd grow this big. I remember celebrating 4k, 5k, 6k.. and every time there'd always be someone saying "wait till you get to 10k, then you'll know what unmanagable means"
Its the big one indeed! Most boards with this many members end up in anarchy. Its a testament to our tireless Ziroc and his Mods that we're still functioning!
Three Cheers to the Mods, Ziroc, and all of Ironworks for making it such a popular place on the web! [img]graemlins/thewave.gif[/img]

Oh yeah.. member #176
just for bragging rights [img]smile.gif[/img] Okay, now Saz is gonna bust a cap in my ass for bringing up the whole member number thing again..

I don't want to put a dampner on things, but I think it does matter how many members are active and how many are not.

Congratulations are in order, yes certainly, but what's the use of celebrating 10,000 members if a percentage of them are non-active cadavers?

Nothing personal guys, just my opinion, that's all.

Even if the vast majority of them are inactive, we can still use their dead accounts as pinatas to celebrate the coming of the 10,000th member. [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] Here's hoping for a nice guy/gal.

Well Grimslade, I absolutely agree that a lot of the accounts are probably inactive. I think it's a symbolic celebration more than anything else, maybe you should look at it that way. [img]smile.gif[/img]

We should throw a big party when we reach 10k!There could be cake and ice cream and stake!

Um.... aren't you forgetting something ? [img]graemlins/showoff.gif[/img]

JUST 12 MORE MEMBERS!!!!!!!!! Nope I don't think so johnny. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

[img]graemlins/dance.gif[/img] party time soon guys [img]graemlins/dance.gif[/img]

I say we have a big IW party. we can have it in amsterdam, we'll all meet there, and drinks will be on the house,

I'm member 9991. So close.
I've just joined Ironworks but I have been lurking for a while.

I reckon it shows that 10,000 odd people (few less for joint accounts ;) ) have chosen to come to IW to be part of the forum, for however long that may be. Says something good about IW I think ;)

Hi Spade [img]graemlins/happywave.gif[/img]

ALCOHOL!!!! how can you have a party without ALCOHOL!!!!

Not to throw a damper on anyones party plans, but the registered members count on the main page reads 9053. Thats the count I usualy go by. When i bother at all. Not that I mind having a party for both counts...

*lays in a stock of beer and munchies*

OH, and SomeGuy? Just what do you plan to do with those stakes at this party? I dont think we have any vampire members, and they woudnt appreciate it if we did.

Let's not talk about stakes...I haven't got over the Neo Vampire thread yet [img]graemlins/nono.gif[/img]
