Milestone Thread - Dallas-Mavs.com Forums

djb · 10-15-2003, 07:13 AM

To cut down on some of the clutter, all congratulatory msgs regarding post totals and member status should be posted in this thread, and this thread ONLY! Thx [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

[b]EDIT: Individual milestone threads are allowed once again, but we ask that members use their best judgement on whether or not to start one (meaning, there probably isn't much point in starting a thread to congratulate someone on achieving 'Member' or 'Senior Member' status).

OzMavs · 10-15-2003, 07:26 AM

Congratulations Dj. This is a great idea.

Murphy3 · 10-15-2003, 08:16 AM

good idea DJ

Drbio · 10-15-2003, 08:18 AM

Thank God. Well done! Can we still dedicate Guru threads? MFF is next.....

Chiwas · 10-15-2003, 12:22 PM

DJ: Can other threads be stuck in the bottom of the page, or in a certain position, say the 10th thread?

Edit: I wanted to include also the question from signoftimes:

" Is it possible to have certain threads NOT count towards the post total?"

u2sarajevo · 10-15-2003, 02:09 PM

The reason I think this is inherently flawed is it is not personal, people will not pay attention to it. I think "Milestones" should just be banned, this single thread for all is just not a good idea. I know it was Murphs idea, but I thought that was the worst idea he has come up with.

So long board personality. A little less friendliness around us.

Yipeeeeeeeeee.

Why not allow us to do milestones in the "private" section? It's hardly used and it wouldn't be post padding.

Congrats to myself. In my record-breaking post padding speed, I am now a "member" instead of a "junior member". I can't wait for the regular season to start so that I can post some meaningful stuff. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

LRB · 10-15-2003, 05:50 PM

Well done Erica!

That must've been the fastest 1000 of all time (well, nearly after the good Doctor, anyway!). Wait till the season starts, then we'll probably have a new guru by the allstar break! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Raefformvp
congrats on post #127

raefformvp · 10-24-2003, 10:32 AM

Thanks Murph! I am a posting maniac.

I see you have been spending some time over at dallasbasketball.com and making some friends. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] I rarely post over there anymore but I still browse occasionally. I find the quality of posters here much more enjoyable.

Edit: left out a word - not good for an English teacher!

mavsfanforever · 10-24-2003, 07:21 PM

raefformvp , your screen name has some chance to be true now since Raef moved to the east.

Congrats on your #129 post.

I agree! Boston has picked up a new fan - I'm listening to the game online now against the Nets, and its pretty good! The Mavs will always be #1 for me, but I can now say I have a favorite leastern team.[img]i/expressions/heart.gif[/img]

Just wanted to say that I concur on what U2 said. The idea of having one thread for all milestones is kind of flawed. It just takes away that personal touch. I have no idea how we are going to save any bandwidth by doing this. And we are talking about clutter in the lounge section. I am willing to discuss this thru pm's if anyone thinks I am wrong.

Murphy3 · 10-27-2003, 05:45 PM

Diamonds are a boy's best friend

Congrats KG

kg_veteran · 10-27-2003, 05:46 PM

Gee thanks, Murph. I feel really special right now.

KG, do you feel less special because you don't have your own thread?

kg_veteran · 10-27-2003, 06:03 PM

Oh yeah, definitely. That's what I want. My own thread. I want to celebrate the greatness of me.

southern_sweets · 10-27-2003, 08:04 PM

That was one of the shortest lived threads in the history of d-m.com.

OzMavs · 10-27-2003, 08:37 PM

Congratulations Kg. Quality. Always says something worth hearing.

Why was KG's sepearte thread locked?

So we could have more room for thrilling threads like "favorite horror/scary movie?"

Murphy3 · 10-28-2003, 08:28 AM
