300 Members!

Post by **Black Six** » Tue Feb 08, 2005 4:43 pm

Hey, just thought I'd point out that we now have 300 members. That may not seem like a lot compared to some message boards, but it's a start!
Thanks Dema, for being our 300th member, and to the other 299 of us for making this board a thriving community of portablizers, console hackers, gamers, programmers, and other assorted varieties of geeks and nerds!

Congrats!

nice, hopefully we'll get plenty more too. As long as we don't get as big as atari age we'll be fine

Wow, thats a lot

And there are also a ton of guests always lurking around.
I wonder how many we'll have by next year.....

...I'll take that as a compliment. Hazaa for 300, and I also wish that we get more members on board diggin' the portable scene(as long as it doesn't happen in one big wave, like when this site was slashdotted...)

pffft, Atari Age's 6538 is nothing compared to linuxforum.com's 44,150

But, the question is, how many of any of those numbers are real productive, contributing members

well, Atari Age is an evolution of the Atari Nexus, which was pretty popular. Kind of like classicgaming.com/vcsp going to benheck.com

I'll say that this entire year member numbers have seemed to have a snowball effect. We had like 50 up to June then we got to around 100, and sence then we've got more, esspecally sence the slashdot incentadent and Ben's book being talked about.
