Unbelievable!

Post by LouieMacGoo »

If someone would have told me 2 weeks ago that this site would have 100 user by the middle of August I would have said they were out of the mind! It's funny how things can change in such a short time. 12 days ago we had essentially 5 members, philm00x, jpsherman, JimJohnson, Wings fan in KC, vmaxept and myself (ok 6 people) Anyway on August 2 people started to trickle in from Mr. Beer, from there every day we gained more and more members until now just 12 days later there are 100 BeerBorg Members!!! :jumpy:

It just is amazing to think that some of the best people to surf the web (and brew beer) landed here on the BeerBorg site instead or anyone of numerous other homebrew forum sites! I am very thankful for that and I am excited to see what the future brings. This should be one hell of a ride and I'm glad you are all here to take it with me!

well louie it's like the show that use to be on history channel; the man, the moment, and the machine. you had the place needed, at the time it was needed. a fine bit of timing there. :)
"Filled with mingled cream and amber
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chambers of my brain
-- Quaintest thoughts -- Queerest fancies
Come to life and fade away;
Who cares how time advances?
I am drinking ale today."

It's no surprise to me....this place is so much better than the MB forum debacle. And I'm sure as Brew Demon grows, this place will grow too since they are pushing this forum. You have done a hell of job getting this going. Thanks!!!

:lol: :lol: Same here and those stats explain why I can't keep up with unread posts.

LouieM Thanks for your patience and I hope we are not overwhelming you I have no idea what kind of commitment of time this site requires of you and I sure hope we aren't keeping up nights.

I don't know why I didn't just say "F*ck It" two weeks ago and start posting here full time. That new forum sucks ass and they didn't seem to want to help anyone like me get our profiles, pics and post counts restored. So....F*ck it. I'm here to stay.
