Popular Post Saru Posted March 24, 2014 Popular Post #1 Share Posted March 24, 2014 (edited) It's almost time again for another major forum milestone - 5 million posts. The countdown has started - we should reach the target a little bit later on today. I'd also like to take this opportunity to tip my hat in appreciation to all of our members for their continued participation and support and also to our forum moderators for their tireless efforts in keeping the forums running smoothly over the last 13 years. Thank you. Update: The 5,000,000 milestone has now been reached! Edited March 24, 2014 by Saru 27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J. K. Posted March 24, 2014 #14 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Do I win a Bigfoot if I am the 5 millionth poster? Bigfoot is occupied with his press tour at the moment, so perhaps you can get a complimentary alien abduction. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
