I was just going through the projections for members we though when we started this place back in July 06.

Needless to say, we have exceeded our expectations considerably - we had 100 members in first week, 150 by end of 2nd week.  Approaching 2500 members now, in just over 18months.


Very, very humbling....
A testimony to the quality of the forum :y :y :y

Wholeheartedly agree. Probably the best I've come across. :y

 [smiley=2vrolijk_08.gif]Proud to be a part of it. I've looked @ 2 other owners forums (not fair to say which 'cos they have hard working admins) but there's ALOT more general activity here.
   Dunno if it's the cars or thier owners but whatever it is it works. :y

I have had similar experience wth other forums, they seem a little bit quiet. Whereas here there is more technical info than you can shake a stick at and always something to make you laugh too!

10/10 for the admins, great job :y

Also a HUGE testimony to the Admins/Moderators, without them the site would be nothing.

Thanks to all involved   :y :y :y :y

Got to agree, never been involved in forums before I found this one, since looked for another makers forum ad was nothing like this.
I am quite new to this but enjoy the light hearted banter that seems to go on, still trying to suss one or two out, it must be an Astra thing!
I have also found the help questions handy and no doubt will be involving myself in these when I try and get the Omega sorted and back on the road.
Thanks to everyone, whether they like Caravans or not!

The admins are alright I suppose.  ;)

Personally, I'm chuffed to see the number of new members who are making such a valuable and frequent contribution.

A few weeks back there was a concern that the 'in' jokes may put new members off. Glad to see that we haven't offended too many and that the forum goes from strength to strength.

Long may it continue.

‘in jokes’ are always a problem for anyone joining in any group, not just this forum. I spend a week or two watching as a guest, it seemed that people knew each other so well that it would be hard to join in. Bite the bullet and have a go, slowly at first, toe in the water etc. Saturday night seemed to be particularly good, a lot of banter, frequently going off thread, and a lot of chat about not much in particular, bit like sitting in the pub.
Long may it continue, becoming a bit of a habit now, little un in bed, sign in!!!!!!

For mad mayhem, you should try one of our (not so regular) regular 'quiznights'.  Yes, a 'pub quiz' can be done online!
