    Dear Everyone

    I was just discussing with my boss how much I'm enjoying being a member of 1000rr.co.uk. I've been a member for nearly a month now and as a new Blade owner have found the site invaluable, technically, as well as entertaining.

    I feel, though that I must explain that, at work, I run two computers, side by side, one where I do the majority of my work and the other open to the internet all day for me to monitor orders, emails and support customers etc, which allows me to run the site in the background constantly. This also means that from 8:00am to 5:00pm, Monday to Friday I'm able to pick up on any post that interests me and respond with my two pennithworth in practically realtime.

    My boss said that I was nothing but a Post Whore, a term I had never come across before. I have just looked it up on the Wiki Urban Dictionary and read the following definition.

    "A newbie to an online forum who goes into overtime posting many short and usually meaningless posts in an attempt to raise their post count to pass the newbie stage ASAP. "

    And realised that he may well be correct.

    I would like to take this opportunity to reassure all the members that this was never my intention. I was just suffering from a basic urge to join in wherever possible on what I consider to be the best FireBlade Forum on the net.

    I'm truly, truly sorry to anyone who has misunderstood my intentions, I would never resort to artificially misrepresent my post count.

    Thank you

    Post whoring you are not mate. I know of a few on here that are. Not me by the way :sarcastic:

    I have been a member on a few other forums for years and racked up 14,000 + post on one and 16,000+ on another :jaw:

    So you must try harder :happy:

    As long as the boss is happy and you enjoy it does not make any difference :Banane41:

    Jan this year mate. and doing well for such a young forum

    But then again a forum is only as good as the members, which many mods seem to forget on other forums.

    Bloody hell, 6 months old and as slick as this.

    REspect to the mods and the rockers.

    See that, I accidently used an upper case E in respect but decided to leave it because my respect is that big.

    Not big enough for three capital letters mind, but definitely two.

    Seriously though, it has to be said, this is a bloody good site for it's age.

    Thanks to everyone responsible, I think.
