Just noticed tonight that we have 2801 members now!! Hard to believe. Wonder how long it'll take us to hit 3000???:eek: Doesn't seem that long ago that we were all excited about hitting 1000 members. lol

That is a lot of members and new people are joining every day. This place is really rocking. We are probably more than 3000 people here before the end of the summer.

If only we could get rid of that annoying guy, Roemello. :lol: ;)

lol That'll only happen in our dreams Pippi. ;)

You're looking for a spanking, aren't you? :hammer: :lol:

We'll get this thou faster than the last methinks....now if more would stop lurking and SAY SOMETHING!! :hammer: :lol: ;)

:lol: I know... the ones with their mouthed :sealed: need to come out and play... its not like we bite; that if, you like people biting :) I say by fall... we shoudl have the 3000 :D

Wow, not many more to go before we hit 3000! That's great. I think early fall is a good prediction.:)

The 80s.com is a great internet presentation.

unfortuately my friends here are very busy in their jobs, so no contribution possible with new members!

Can I have a post-counter bonus for my competent age
or for intelligent postings?
:D

I say we will hit 3000 August 19. :D

I was just going to post something about this the other day. We need to start placing our guesses for the magical day we hit 3000. My guess is August 1st.

Yes, it's time to put in our guesses for when we hit that next magical milestone. I say we will hit 3K members on August 30. :thumb:

I'll guess September 3rd....

Woohoo! :cheers:

My guess is August 16th! :)

Are we starting a pool? Put me down for July 31!

What do we win if we get the date right?

HEAR! HEAR! :hammer: :lol:

Not to spoil the good atmosphere of this thread, or bring anyone down, but .... (there's always a but...)I was wondering how many of these members are actually active, I noticed a lot of 0 postcounts in the member's list :confused: :)

My guess 13th of Flufftember :p

BTW Gateway .... erh ... sorry Greenway (couldn't resist, it's that voice in my head again ;) :D ) you win a date with me :dammit: :lol:

In that case, :yucky: I change my guess to June 1st (Not much chance of that happening). Smurf, I suspect its time you had that "Beautiful Mind" checked out! :lol:

I was about ready to say the same thing. Out of all the members, only about 5%, maybe 10% actually post. I noticed many of the low count posting users (less than 10 messages) mostly came here to find a song, maybe a movie, then left.

Although I have never seen any user base with 100% active members. I would imagine if all users who haven't logged on in the last year were deleted, several hundred would be gone, if not much higher.

BTW Gateway .... erh ... sorry Greenway

See it is catching on :lol:

I perdict August 16th

Do they ever get deleted, I wonder, after a period of inactivity? I post during work hours....Shhhhhhhh... dont tell the boss:tsk:

But I am trying my best to not be an inactive newbie:lol:

I say August 9 or 10!

You seem to be doing a great job posting so far :thumb: Just stop by when you feel like it, and you'll be a regular in no time .... Not all newbies are expected to run amok on a 500 posting sprre on their 1st week here ;) :D

I say we get 3k on Aug 20th

I say August 16th, then we'll hit 3K!! ;)

2825 members today.

That's 24 members in 6 days.

Projected 3K date: July 20th!

Is it too late to get in on this? My guess is August 8th.:)

I like the 17 of August. And if I win, my intention is to donate the prize to the poor -and it's possible, dirty & ugly- people (that's ok for you, Smurf? ;)).
BTW, it would be any special prize for the member number 3000? (if so, I'll be waiting to register my son just in time! :baby: ). Can I propose to make an "SPECIAL WELCOME" to our member 3000?. I think it's a good reason to make a little cyber-party :jester:

"Hey, you can't play twice! "

If I make the price 50/50 with the loosers?:)

6 more members yesterday. Projected date for 3000 is now 7/17/2002.

Of course, any member of the xchange!. :D. You know that we all are handsome, gorgeous and very good-looking!. But I'm sure I will find someone very-very special to meet you! (damn, you're surrounded of the most beatiful danish girls... as you already know heaven, you should know what's hell :mwaha: )

Cool Stacy, thanks for doing this! It will be interesting to see who's date is closest.

I'm curious to see who will be the closest also. Anyone else want to add their guess to when the day we will hit 3000 members?

:( I was going to guess August 8th since it's my birthday, but I guess I'll sit back and wait. :lol:


Nope, changed my mind. I'll go with my sister's birthday instead. August 11th. :D

Oops! Sorry I took your date. Kinda!:p :)

I want Oct. 13th. :) Seems like a good day to me.

Im with you Jazzy, Oct 31st :)

Okay, this is what i'm doing. I just keep updating the post I had above with our names and dates of when we will hit 3000. That way we can keep up with the dates easier. ;)

Cool.. Hey.. is it just me.. or has anyone else noticed that people are picking the same dates? So we clearly cannot have a contest with an actual prize unless they want to give out multiple prizes... which I don't see happening... sorry guys :(

But it's fun picking the dates anyway!

Trixter....................August 16
Milani.....................August 16
Christine................August 16


I didn't know the 16th was taking :eek:
Should I change mine to make it more interesting?

2 Qs :)

1: When's the deadline for entering ???
2: Shouldn't this be made sticky ???

Hmm. I don't know if we can actually have a prize. It's common practice on message boards for people to signup new accounts to win. :p So...

Regarding people who actually post - well, all message boards actually have a great many most of their users NOT posting. I don't make it a policy to delete users who aren't around much. What if they want to come around again later - and they've been deleted? I figure - no pressure. Post when you want - or don't. We'll still be here for you...

Any ideas for a prize system that would be honest and accurate? Any newbie can pick a date and actually make it happen. Ya know?

Sal?:eek: What you doing up late again? :tsk: Go to bed! :o Im not one to talk...

Anyway, back on track... you're right, we got bucket loads of people who signed up one, posted a greeting and dropped off the face of the Planet XChange

As for a prize system, I dunno I'll leave that thought to the next one who can think with a straight head :)

So far, there're 2850 members. Only 150 more members are needed to reach 3000.

Hi Ty! I'm always a night owl - I'm just usually working all night. Yes, only 150 members to go. This is going to happen quickly... I'm not going to take a guess, but I'd bet mid July...

2893 now. Moving up quickly!

Moving up very quickly. :) Now if only we get more people posting here. ;)

I have been noticing a lot of people signing up this week. Is it just me or when we are close to a milestone like this, it seems like more people start signing up.

Am I too late, I only just saw this...:D Not that I care but.....

August 29

Don't think a deadline was set on this yet. We need to get one though.

I added ya to the list, Shei on page 3 of this thread. Yes, we all need to figure out a good deadline for this. Maybe July 1st?

I think so too! Thanks for adding me Stacy! :)

I think with the new top the way it is, people sign up more...

July 1st sounds like a good deadline to me.

August 12th at 6:45 am. Okay I'm being cheeky.

I think we have a lot of members who don't post but do read our posts. I notice many posts have way more views than posts.

To all shy soon to be posters... Jump in and say hi.
