    Did we pass 800 members?

    Grats, and thanks TTF, on putting together a board we all can benefit from. And welcome everyone we may have missed.

    Heh heh...yesterday afternoon some time. I think we had about 200 new members register over the course of 24 hours or so. Congrats to everyone for making this place such a great place to talk Steeler football (and anything else that comes to mind). :-D

    Yeah, they just seem to be pouring in lately.

    It seems like just last week, we were approaching 600, suddenly, we're over 860.

    Funny considering I can't bring this site up using a general search on Yahoo or Google.

    The more, the merrier. :D

    (But it is nice when looking at registered users on-line and seeing a ton. Reminds me of the good ol' days on the old board... minus the crashes. ;))

    It's mainly due to the fact that I restricted forum access to registered users only on Sunday night. Since then, we've had about 275 people sign up. I had no idea we had so many 'legitimate' guests lurking (I say legitimate because we have about 40-50 spam spiders crawling the pages at a given time). It wasn't my intent to convert guests to registered users...and I'll be restoring the guest access back to normal soon, but wow huh? :)

    If there were a crash ( :superstition: ), we have regular backups preformed and a caring and competent administrator who would work hard to have things quickly restored. ;-)

    Oh, I'm not worried about a crash here. I was referring to the old board and how it would crash if it got overloaded.
