So, I was trying to keep track of when we hit the 10,000 mark for members. That didn't quite work out, what with the 10,100+ number we are now at.

My how the community has grown in the recent years. What is one to do with all the in-jokes? I'm glad that SE's work continues to build in notoriety and that ICE continues to push the bounds of Malazan fans further with each novel.

I don't really know what the purpose of this thread is other than to mark the milestone. Fill it with your usual inanities crazy mob.

Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

Which user hated posts that started with "So..."? Was that Bryn?

I'd say sorry, but I'm not.

Unfortunately, we've yet to truly hit 10000; I used to have a condition where I had no short term memory and thus forgot my password every day and so started a new account every day for over 6.5 years. Also, if I remember correctly, I had split personalities at the time, a result of my memory loss, I think, (I'm sorry I can't recall exactly) that also started multiple accounts because they, also, had no short term memory. So, with at least 4 personalities starting new accounts every day for 6.5 years means, approximately 9490 are me. So, there are only about 600 members that aren't me. Sorry.

I'm under the impression that over 9000 of those user accounts are just Abyss' alter egos.

I wonder what would happen if you purged all the members who had less than 10 posts and hadn't posted in 2+ years?

I can only imagine Cougar's chest-minge in an epic remake of the entirely heterosexual volleyball scene.

The mafia alts should count double. Some of them have more posts (in the games forum) then most members.

Path-Shaper actually has the highest post count on the forum, and it's not even close.

A good chunk of those are probably from the spoiler threads so count quadruple. :(
