Does the 1000th member get a free trip to the Bahamas or any other place of their choice?

Member #1000 WAS someone calling himself Moneyput, but it was a spammer, so I deleted him.
Still at 999, and First pull is #999.

Sounds a bit funny to an Aussie, but member 1000! Congratulations mate.

I really enjoy your forum Papaw === Keep up the good work.

BTW I wonder what has become of our "Resident Rambler" Bird. She used to post a lot. We haven't heard from her in a long time.

Bird will surface when she can and is willing. She is a free spirit!

Back before the 2011 big crash, Papaw held a gathering of the faithful. Here is a photo. The wrench gods smiled.

no but they get a 20% off coupon from harbor freight     bob w.

thank you papaw great job

Nice to see a 1000+.

Would also be nice to know all 1000 support the forum being available for our pleasure.

It would be my guess that this forum follows the "80-20" rule as do most things in life, i.e. 20% of the members here will put up 80% of the posts.  The good thing is that the 80% that are left post some very good things.

If 20% of the members would post on a regular basis, we would have a lot more posts. As it is, Tool Talk averages close to 100 members visiting in any given 24 hour period, and post very good content. In our niche market, I am quite pleased with the activity we have . I have never been concerned with being the largest forum, just with the quality we have continued to exhibit here. It is all thanks to the membership that understands the reasons and value of the way Tool Talk has been set and will continue to run.
