Come on, today is the day...let's break 20,000 posts!

[Jason Dunn]

We're only 98 posts away from breaking past the 20,000 post mark, which is significant in the life of a forum this young (5 months). Lurkers, come out of your holes, into the sunlight of the forums! Post my brothers and sisters, post! <img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif" /><br /><br /><b>UPDATE:</b> Uh, I guess I needed to specify that today was the day to post something <b>USEFUL</b> to the discussion board. I don't want to break into 20,000 posts with emoticon posts. <img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif" />

[Jimmy Dodd]

I always wanted to use this emoticon.

What's most amazing is that this open source software is really going to give Microsoft a run for its money on the server end of things. To think something that's free can support a busy web message board just as well as a Microsoft product.

MySql forever :).

And here is my contribution with a small collection of emoticons I will never use in regular postings anyhow... ;-)

[Ashley Dunn]

Well, here's post four to this thread.

This is pretty exciting, if I don't say so myself! Nearly 20,000 posts. Incredible! Good work, Jason. :smilecolros:

[brntcrsp]

finally an excuse to post... far to freaquently I end up just skimming posts and not finding anything truly constructive to say. At least now, since there is nothing constructive to say, I should say it.

[brntcrsp]

and since we're on the subject of posts, I need to find a way to add another 6 posts to finally break the margin from pupil to ponderer.

My mother always said, "If you don't have anything worthwhile to say, keep your mouth shut." That's not the only advice I didn't take. :roll:

[lawnman]

Here's my addition to the count. . .

[BrianCooksey]

Congrats!

Could you tell me how you think you will do that? :D

[Ivan]

Test post to see my post count

[pradike]

Its quite the accomplishment to have a source of information THAT popular. Hope you keep up the good work!

[Ivan]

OK, I'm about 35 or more posts away from Pupil to Ponderer... can I post them all here? 8O

[Jason Lee]

Can we double post??

[Jason Lee]

[weezie]

Here you go, I'm coming out of my hole and posting for a good cause. Great work Jason. Thanks to you and everybody else involved with Pocket PC Thoughts. Keep up the good work. :D

[Paul Martin]

Just doing my part!

Oh, to live as a Chia-pet, all green and wet.
Caring not for the world around him.
Living only for the pleasures abound him.
Looking all green and fluffy.
You just might want to call him Buffy.


Thank you.

Mine always says "Blood may be thicker than water, but it is harder to get off the carpet"

Keep up the good work team, I would have no way to waste the first 30 minutes of my day if I didn't have you guys.

[Dave Conger]

20,000 posts...wow.

Well, Jason has 10%...and Ed has 5%... :)

[Sslixtis]

Just be sure to put down a Tarp before you get the blood on the carpet :wink: Hey guys give me more of those seldom used Emoticons :lol:

[brntcrsp]

I hope so otherwise I'd never get anywhere. BTW Congatulations to all the PPCT staff. You've all done a brilliant job satisfying my unquenchable thirst for PocketPC knowledge. Heck, I even enjoy the banter of the off topic posts.

I feel better, but Jason is screaming again !!! :twisted:

[Rob Borek]

20,000 posts already? Heck, I swear it was just yesterday that Pocket PC Thoughts began its life! Having been here from the beginning, it's come a long ways. When I first became an MVP, Jason was a prolific (well... maybe rabid is a better word :wink: ) poster in the newsgroups, and didn't like web-based forums that much. My my how things have changed :wink:

I can't believe how far the Pocket PC has come in my time with the Pocket PC (which began with a WinCE Palm-sized device, then when the Pocket PC came out I grabbed a Jornada 540 - which I just recently gave away to a worthy person &lt;sniff>). In my time as an MVP, I've seen the Pocket PC scene not just grow, but explode. I can't say enough how great I feel to have joined along for the ride at the start, and seeing it explode, and meeting such a great group of people (the last MVP Summit was one of the best times of my life). Maybe we will be remembered one day as the pioneers of the Pocket PC scene and the modern Mobile Devices scene (Biography Channel presents... Jason Dunn :wink: )

Just putting in my contribution to the 20 grand!

Happy 20,000 to you;

[sesummers]

BwanaJim: Isn't your graphic from a King Crimson album? I've been noticing that it looks familiar, but I couldn't place it, and I'm still not SURE. But I thought I'd waste the space to ask and in the process, do my part to help Jason hit the 20K mark! 8)

[brntcrsp]

looks like we've already passed it by 405+ now. that worked out well.

Good eye there sesummers. That's right, it is an album jacket from King Crimson. Three of a Perfect Pair to be specific. One of my favorites.

All right. Keep it up! We're going for 30K baby!

er, no. wait...never mind. :oops:

Here's another one, I'm still a pupil though :(

[chrisnian]

Thank goodness you made the 20,000 posts...

I wanted to help, but couldn't think of anything constructive to say (never stopped me in the past :P ).

Congratulations to you all - keep up the great work.

Pocket PC Thoughts rules! :grab:

Yes! I'll bet I haven't heard that one for at least a decade. I might have to track down a copy. The only Crimson in my collection now is Frame by Frame, which isn't nearly as good.

Thanks.

[Jonathon Watkins]

Well deserved Jason. Now we just need to aim for 20,000 posts a year, then 20,000 posts a month. :wink:

Get posting everyone!

Actually - it is sometimes hard to keep to a thread as the main page fills up so fast. Stay away for 3 days and every item is new. That's just a testament to the news gathering abilities we come here for. :D

[pderathe]

Hello, I didn't notice this forum was only 5 month old.
For me it's like an old friend.

Thanks for the quality of your site.

Here's another one

[Jason Dunn]

Thanks guys, we did it - 20,000+ posts! Whee! :lol:

[JonnoB]

Posts that mean something... at some point, doesn't this water down the usefullness of reading posts?

[dma1965]

Chances are.....this night I wear a silly grin...the moment you come into viewwwww. :lol:

[DrtyBlvd]

My God Jase, you know how to invite trouble dont'cha? :lol:

[Kirk Stephens]

The quality of a discussion board is all dependent upon the people who frequent it. Because of the variety and quantity of news being reported here, some great discussions take place. Keep it up Jason and gang. :)

[juni]

...but if it gets too popular some greedy company will want to offer Jason mucho $$$ for it and then they'll replace him with their company drones...perhaps make him work for free for six months to get it back...erm..is this a deja vú all over again? ;)

Anyway...congrats on a good site :)

[danmanmayer]
