Quest to 50k Comments and Hall of Shame

Quest to 50k

Oh boy, oh wow, there is so much happening in the community these days I can’t even keep up. I used to be able to read every single post in every thread but things sure have changed.

There is everything from praise to insults, threads for all sorts of topics from Big Al’s bingo to “What women want”! (Eat your heart out Mel Gibson)

I did some math the other day on how many comments had been posted and I thought my calculator had gone hay-wire, so I checked it again – it said 42,421! Golly, that is a lot!
And there’s been a whole bunch more since then. So to keep up, rather than counting them all again, I’ve coded a progress bar that shows the push to 50,000 comments.

Go check out the live progress on the community home page.

Hall of Shame

So, with all the comments going on we’ve noticed a seedy undercurrent of pretty cheeky marketeers people who’re posting spam from time to time.

We sure don’t like spam so those posts will be moved to new the Hall of Shame where they’ll stay as a lasting memory, kind of like a rubbish bin that’s never emptied…
Sure we could just delete the posts and then you’d never know, but that’s not how we roll.
