Diego_Sideburns Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Tomorrow I'll have completed two years of typing posts with one finger. It's shorter than the others but I'll keep doing my bit. Well done OWTB for all the good work towards getting planning permission and for growing into the Club's official message forum. Also for bringing many Latics supporters together on screen and in person. Whereas it's easy to be a ManUre supporter, it takes special qualities and a thick skin to be a Latics supporter. Not taking yourself too seriously and having a sense of humour helps greatly, and this comes through on OWTB on a regular basis. To OWTB I say keep up the good work, and to all Members I say keep the Faith. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oafc88 Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Yes a big thanks to the guys, i actually check here first before the main site now. One question, which has been bugging me for a while and may have been answered a while ago, why do we have a 1'000 or so members registered but have some people with higher memeber numbers?

One question, which has been bugging me for a while and may have been answered a while ago, why do we have a 1'000 or so members registered but have some people with higher memeber numbers? We periodically delete unused accounts. Same with the post count, which is under the actual number of posts since launch. All of which helps reduce the data load.

Guest sheridans_world Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I think danoafc got the 100,000th post a while back. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> - 7th Feb 2008 We actually had our 200,000th post the other day - <{POST_SNAPBACK}> - Roger Ritchie with that post. We went over 4000 registered users too, not long ago, as said above, we delete unused accounts and old posts, so the 'stats' are subject to change and will be below the actual figure.

outoftheblue Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Happy birthday, and thanks for being the best source for reading unsubstantiated rumours, uneducated posters, over-pessimistic fans, over-optimistic fans, ridiculous team selection opinions, TescoWatch, childish spats, petty name-calling, and unceasing Shez in/out polls. Just kidding - I'd be lost without it. Well done guys, it's been a first class site for two years, long may it continue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of which helps reduce the data load. Diego has 8784 at the moment So I probably would have 10,000 if some hadn't been deleted periodically? P.S. Bollox to those who say I haven't got a life!!

No, the post counter per member counts up the number of posts you have done ever. Deleting posts doesnt affect it. So sorry Diego, you're still under 9000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
