Do you know BrudLee?

3k members. Thats pretty damn good.

I mean technically we are at 3,000, but don't some of these trash posters not count?

Re: Welcome to the Board MeLindaLee
 

If it weren't for the great board crash of '04 we'd be closing in on 5k

Re: Welcome to the Board MeLindaLee
 

I remember the board crash of '04. It was a dark time.

Re: Welcome to the Board MeLindaLee
 

I think I would have had twice as many posts as I have now, if it weren't for that damn crash. I lost everything..... Everything, but I did gain my title

If you are the 847th member, you were entitled to tickets to last year's superbowl.

What was te crash of 04? Was that when Matty? went on vacation and the site went down? I was ticked that they would stop the site and not give anyone heads up that they were going to do so.

Re: Welcome to the Board MeLindaLee
 

I wasn't here for the great board crash of 04'. Anyways, great job on the 3k members! It's quite an accomplishment.

Re: Welcome to the Board MeLindaLee
 

all kidding aside, matty, thanks for a good place to share some skins talk. you and the mods do a great job( now, does all this sucking up get me a cookie?)

GIG - you're #686. Nothing special. :D

The crash of 04 was a dark time indeed. Basically, the timing couldn't have been worse. It was the time right around when the Champ-for-Portis trade rumors started to heat up.

Re: Welcome to the Board MeLindaLee

I believe the crash happened in early/mid February and the new site came online the night of Feb 23/24 2004.

Damn, I don't even remember the site looking like that, thanks for the history lesson! :)

After that was when we made the switch to vbulletin, a much higher quality forum software package.

That was my 22nd bday. :)

Re: Welcome to the Board MeLindaLee
 

Welcome MeLindaLee. Post soon, will you?

I must have been there on the old board with a great post about L. Betts, according to that page, but at my age, I don't remember much any more.
2004 is a blur, as was 1958, 1974, and 1982.

That was actually when I went to Vegas to get married when it went down for a few days. That wasn't a crash, just a slight malfunction that only required one click of the mouse to reset the site, only thing was I was cruising at about 25,000 feet when the site went down that morning and I just happened to check on the site later that week in my hotel room using web TV to find that it was down.

That should never happen again though as I know have a laptop I take with me on vacation so I can keep a closer eye on things.

Re: Welcome to the Board MeLindaLee
 

matty, is your wife a big time skins fan? i can hear my wife, with us going on vacation, and me lugging around a laptop to check up on the redskins. and i even converted her to being a skins fan
