One And A Half Million Reasons Why


Mike

Recommended Posts

... this place is still here

a very quick mention before forget

just sneaked passed the one and a half million posts mark...

which nearly caught me out.... it doesn't seem that long ago that we hit the million

and while on here

as long time members may be aware august is the month when I usually post up something about the anniversary of soul source kicking off and say something like will post some old stuff up

this year marks the 14 years landmark

the sites just a bit older than my youngest son, which means now entering the stroppy teenager phase :glare::D

as always hats off to all members, its all down to you!

:hatsoff2:

Think this site went through the 'stroppy teenage' phase a long time ago.

Never mind the "stroppy teenage" phase .it's always been full of grumpy old men :yes::D .

going to sort the members date of birth thing on here so starts running backwards...

round and round

:D

on the numbers thing

400 now show in soul map

which means that 400 can use the

"show events close to me" feature of the event guide

eg

https://www.soul-source.co.uk/calendar?soultype=local-soul-events

if you do want to use this one click lazy feature you do need to enter your location in soulmap

(just a click - type name of town - click affair)

worthwhile doing imo as looking at using the "location" features more in future

of course it makes sense for promoters to enter the map details of events as well as wont show in this otherwise

Everyt time I get a message, read it, then I click NEW POSTS to get back to the forum, it first takes me to new members for some reason and there's always between 1 and 5 new people every time I do this, and I do it every day, so goodness knows how many members there are, must be 5000? Except only about 100 ever post. Shame.

i say healthy

dont look at member who aint posted (as its never been a must do) but rather use members who visited as a sort of measure

have occasional clean ups

just looked

over 7400+ individual members visited over last year

pete

25381 thru door since say 2002

15,700 as active but may change

on posting members last time looked

over 1000+ members post every week

of course that was in sept 1999 - nah a couple months ago

those who enjoy stats and such you can view a lot of statty info via the members list (advanced search)

but it only gives forum and members only view and would say its limited if looking at post counts etc

as gallery,events,blogs,comments,articles,refo, etc dont feature

plus guest visits/reads dont come into play when viewing this

edit

as with all these sort of stats info and such can be read many ways

i would and do use the "vibe" more week to week than actual figures

thanks for all the words, all appreciated

as have said its all down to you lot and of course all the mod team members both past and present who without this place would have never reached today

how about using this thread as a excuse for a bit of indulgent memory jerking...

along lines of all time feel good moments or the things that even yet still bring a smile to your face ?

steve cato and his dad be one of the memorable feel good one's for me

the "just got in" posts by some (myself included ) would feature as some of the smile inducers

can think of a fair few more but sure that some of you can tell them better than me

so anyone up for passing on their own feel good or/and smile on your face moments on here....

This made me laugh, although I did write it myself, except I wrote it a week ago on my sales list and forgot about it, I was actually going to change it when I put the list out but totally forgot...how come nobody bought it?

FAY SIMMONS – IF THIS IS GOODBYE – TUFFY EX 20

Sounds like it was recorded in a bathroom while the singer’s leg was being forced into a food blender

Thanx to all the moderators and administrators must be a he'll of a job sorting out all us squabbling kidz!!

Great forum we don't always agree on things (or is that we never agree)

But remember if you cant argue you usually end up falling out with each other

Keep on keeping on

Thanks for everything, Mike and moderators.

Fourteen years is some achievement, especially as most of us would try the patience of a saint.
