    Default The (Un)Official Milestone Topic!

    Some of us have been here at TPM for quite awhile, and we've hit some impressive milestones in both time ("I've been a TPMer for five years!") and postcount ("10K posts, woo!"). So I figured that we could use a thread for all those big announcements. Not sure if it'll catch on, but hey!

    To get things started, I'd like to congratulate Shonta (classy_cat18) for hitting the five-year mark! I know I'm a day late, but hopefully you can forgive me. ^_^

    Take it away, everyone!
    IT HAS RETURNED.

    Nice idea for a topic. Now we won't need the 1,000,000,002 posts + a poll or something - threads. No one congratulated me anyway when I hit 1000 posts, they just replied to my poll...

    Congratulations classy_cat18! We should have more functions in our calendar.

    I think I set the record for slowest to 500 at about 6 years... it'll be 7 next month and what'll I have to show for it? Slightly more posts; maybe 30 since then.

    Oh congrats!

    I think I posted a few of my milestone topics, lol. I'm almost to 4,000 now and I've been here for like 6 years now. I haven't been posting quite as often in the last 2 or so years...

    Personally, I think you just post a lot, Blade. I've been around TPM close to three full years longer than you, yet you still manage to have a higher postcount. Kinda says a lot because I've yet to find somebody besides you with a similar case. o_O

    For myself, only a little over four and a half years, and only a few short of 3,300 posts. If anybody manages to achieve a higher postcount than Ash_300, I definitely wouldn't be the first.

    Speaking of, I know he (Ash_300) sometimes lurks - he did back in September. I just find it funny how he's been sitting back, and hasn't posted since December of last year.

    Not necessarily a milestone, but as of today, I have been a member of TPM for 2 years, 2 weeks, and 2 days.

    Heh, I haven't visited this forum in ages, yet I come back and find I still made it onto a list. Granted, it's just a list of members, not a list of noteworthy members (which I would never be found on), but it's nice to see I haven't ceased to exist here.

    I actually forgot about this place until I got a happy birthday message in my e-mail today. Nice to see it's still alive and kicking. Eight days until my seven year milestone (though leaving and coming back kinda reduces the impact).

    Edit: Heh, just looked at my sig. Bland as ever, and doesn't really make sense anymore considering it was years ago that I changed it.

    TPM isn't as active anymore either, Leon. Although I've heard that the Green Land has been abuzz with lulz and trolls lately...

    So mature, slightly less-than-active forum versus non-stop immature activity strikes again?

    I registered in November 22, 2000 and was modded in PCG in April 2001 by a man named LuGiA007.

    I wonder where that kid went to.

    LuGIA007, now THAT brings back memories.

    I'm unsure of who modded me =/
    could have been Susie
    but I'm unsure of whether she was even an admin back when I was modded
    could have been John too like you Shaz. Argh I don't know =]

    anyway, I'm just so happy that this place is still alive after 7 years. pretty amazing given the shelf life of internet forums and crazes/fads like pokémon general.

    Nah, Suzie was just a mod of Misc when you were modded. I'd bet $5 it was kainashi that modded you!

    First of all...congrats to everybody in here!

    Anyways, I originally registered here in November 2000 (the exact date escapes me...), so I've been here almost 7 years...and yet I hit the 1,000th post milestone just this year on July 19th in (*CHECKS*) AdventureSerum's "Piles and piles of Pokemon styles" topic in General Discussion. (I took a screenshot of the moment, just like I did when I became a Cool Trainer back in 2002.)

    Yay!! Today is my 7 Year Anniversary at TPM!! Meh, it is hard to believe, but I have been on TPM for about a third of my life, I was only 15 back then. A lot of things sure have changed in those last 7 years. It is kinda strange, to just sit back and think about 7 years ago, it seems like such a long time, but when I think about my time here, it doesn't seem all that long, it really seems just like yesterday that I found this place, all of the memories still seem so fresh.

    Ok, Anniversary cake and ice cream for everybody!!

    In a couple months I'll be the 1st active member to have been here for EIGHT years!!! Oh, geez.

    I was also the first modded member. I was dethroned 'cuz I closed a spam topic in a forum that wasn't mine... Oh God forbid =)

    Nevertheless I'm almost also finally at 5,000 posts ^^;; I usually only post when someone pisses me off like the trekkie kid, or when I'm playing a game. ^^;;

    I smell fish, WHY does the dining hall serve fish on Mondays and Fridays... seriously nobody buys it. It's dining hall fish. Something very wrong with that picture.

    This is actually my second account (my first one was lost when the boards glitched when they were moved to a new server at that time of year ), but thanks for the congratulations, anyway!

    I also noticed quite a few classic members in that list who aren't around anymore... (*SIGHS*)

    Quite funny actually. I mean I just saw your post in General Discussion Pokémon CDs topic and that you had 5000 posts. I immediately came to Misc to congratulate you in this topic, only to notice that me congratulating you wouldn't come as a surprise, or not at least as a bigger surprise.

    Anyways, congratulations Magmar!

    where is this archive? =]
    I don't understand where you're pulling these things from.

    looks like I have a tiny postcount too, weird.
    also I could have swore I joined 3rd december.

    I'm confused.
    but still, I've been here over 7 years...
    and in no way is that depressing. ;]

    I registered as 'pokemastershazza2000' on November 22, 2000. Although the account is banned, I'm still happy and privileged to reach the milestone!

    Still, 7 years is a bit "WTF?!"

    Why was your account banned, anyway, Vejodi? Far as I can see, your old account was pretty clean and successful...

    I honestly forget, I think I was in a phase where I thought I was "better than TPM" and thus could act moronic and get away with it.
