How come nobody cares about being in the 700 club anymore? |
|
I remember when it used to be a fun thing to help people get out of the 700 posts range and we had some fun threads about nothing. Not that we don't have threads about nothing anymore, but where's the good-natured ribbing? Where's the vicious hazing? I mean good laughs? I miss those days...

1. NYer99 isn't around to remind us |
|
of the 700 Club's horrible stigma. :(
Plus, there's a crop of n00bs who've probably never even heard of it.

2. Well then we gotta bring it back like the Blues Brothers |
|
I mean, since it's the 700 club I think it would be appropos to be on a mission from God. Excuse me... Gaaaad.

3. I just got out of the 700 club |

and nobody mentioned anything about it to me.
I remember it too, back when I first joined up.

4. I mentioned it to one newbie and She (about) ripped my head off. |
|
...Thought I was making a pass at her.
I tried to explain the 700 thing to her but she never answered my posts which make me suspect she put me on ignore...???

5. post counts aren't as regarded anymore, in my opinion |
|
the community is just much bigger than it was 4 years ago. besides, one of the best decisions the admins ever made was to limit the number to 1000 on the screen display
