Is it just me or is this forum pretty active lately? I mean, it's more than just episode discussion like it used to be. Lots of new people and lots of non-TG/FG related threads.

There have been so many posts in topics that it take time to get to the root of the "Off topic". It is growing nicely though....ladies in the forum are gradually increasing.

I am loving this forum. Viper, you have built yourself a wonderful little community, and I hope that FinalGear continues to go from strength to strength. I have done a little posting on the RvB forums over the past week or so, and it's boring as batshit over there compared to here.

images/smilies/cheers.gif Congratulations on the community Viper, and here's to the future of FinalGear!! images/smilies/beer.gif

It is VERY popular... Sometimes when I wake up, overnight (my time, of course) all the Euro's and Americans have been busy posting there's something like 50 or so threads with many many new posts!

It's insane!!

Keep up the good work, it's great being able to talk about topics other than just cars... sure, cars are top notch but good to have an outlet about things like photography and politics and random shiath.

Kudos to all involved with the running of the site!

Its impossible to read all the threads so yeah im sure most of us do that.

Yes the political section has been quiet. I will be posting in a thread, taking time to research some things...

Bihus, I checked the site while in Puerto Rico a few times so thats why I didnt get over 10pages when I came back to my comp at home.

Ah, ok. The only time I had internet access was 5 or 6 days after I left, and I knew I wouldn't have time to check it all, so didn't even logged in.

BTW, Viper, I couldn't get the posts since last visit after page 10. Is that a bug?

If you check a couple of times a day, you do at some point or other...

Except the discussion 6x11. I swore to myself not to post in it, but now I don't even read it. I'm glad only stupid Americans posted in it, and not the whole bunch of really cool ones... (If you are offended, check the thread. If you still don't understand me, I don't care...)
