Forum Statistics

[johnro]

That was so interesting - thank you for alerting us to it Cuilidh, never ventured there til now.  Thank you to all on here but in particular those terrific 10 who keep the forum wheels always moving.

Cuilidh,
It's not my fingers honest, my iPad is possessed, it does what it wants, it's so not obedient

We have come a long way... The stats are amazing. This'll keep growing and growing...

I'll never forget that first night when I sat down and actually started this forum. I had to label everything in English (as this is a clone of the Portuguese forum)..  and then when launched, well, there was not a lot. Then a few kind members linked back to this forum. It started slowly at around 2 per week. Then 5, then 10.... I could go on and on...

Now I have around 100 requests per day to sort out, but unfortunately 90% is spam (some shocking)...

When UK starts buying this wonder machine (and Vorwerk releases in USA), then it's going to be pandemonia And of course we have thousands of Aussies still to conquer!

Thanks to all, because you are the success!

A big salute from me to you all

Thanks Master Moderator for starting this Forum. And a bigger thanks for keeping the fake (want to be) members out. You make us all feel safe while using the forum. Your our Bodyguard.
Its amazing looking at the Stats and how quickly it has grown in such a short time. Well done.

  for MM. I for one would be devastated if I couldn't have my dose of 'the forum.'

[Frozzie]

didnt know it existed either..the stats yes but not in such detail..a very big thankyou to the top ten 'chatterboxers' lol and MM for all his hard work (ps word of warning the aussies are hard to conquer so beware!!)

and CP thanks for that discovery also...sneaky little devil you are 

and cookie i too would be devastated ...its my time out and put a smile on my face moment in a world of housework and toddlers!!

You must be run off your feet MM, now I feel guilty when I ask you as question on behalf of other members 
The nice thing is that you always get back to me so I thank you for that 
Glad you are able to keep the unwanteds out, must admit I had a few shocks in the early days when I came on first thing in the morning.

CP, you are a devil, I too now look at that stat - it is interesting.

I too didn't realise that such detailed Stats were there - although I must 'fess up to sometimes taking a peek at who's online and what topics are being viewed 

It's fascinating to see the difference and growth between November 2008 when I joined, and now.  I knew we'd grown hugely, 'cos I don't feel like I need to put in the extra effort to help things along anymore (shame on me!) and just pop on to see how everyone is and what's new every few days when I have a few minutes - rather than the unfailing every day that I used to put in (ah for the pre-baby/toddler days).

I love this forum, and especially how friendly and helpful it is.  Thanks to MM, the Top 10, and all of you who help to make this the forum that it is

Lovely to hear from you CarolineW.  I'm sorry you don't have more time to spend on here but I'm sure you're enjoying having DD2 to keep you amused....

It's amazing how this place hasn't changed since the early days when there were less of us around... except there's so much more to read each day 

[Halex]

I love the forum too, even on holidays I have to log in every day. I do miss my TM and am looking forward to cooking next week, watch out freezer your going to packed full of yummy food. That's the problem I have, I cook, we eat I cook we eat, I cook I cook I cook I cook, so much food, I just cant help myself......

Thanks for all you have done for this most amazing place.
MM I can now give DD and my friend the reason for still not being approved to be a member of the forum - they must have been classified as spam - but didn't you realise that spam is an acronym for 'some people are amazing'.    
Cheers for now MM (must move on approving contacts of johnro    )

Lovely to hear from you CarolineW.  I'm sorry you don't have more time to spend on here but I'm sure you're enjoying having DD2 to keep you amused....

You know it!!    She's such a little character nowadays - she keeps me in stitches.  And keeps me running too    And if I'm getting a break while things go quiet, it's time to worry.  Silence means 'Be afraid.  Be VERY afraid.'

She was silent today and I thought 'oh oh'.  Sure enough, she's now tall enough and strong enough to open my sewing drawer (who knew?).  She'd got out a packet of HUGE doll sewing needles, and opened it, and got the needles out.  She had a needle in one hand and a pair of sharp scissors in the other 

[faffa_70]

OMG Caroline  sounds like she is really keeping you on your toes  Before you know it she will be off to school and you will be waiting for them to come home because the house is so quiet! As much as I love the days when everyone is out ... by the end of the day I am waiting for them to all be home again  Tapped in the head I get called lol

[Bedlam]

I was the same Faffa , looking forward to them coming home from school,then they are home for a while getting irritable with each other and you wish them back at school. I would love to go back in time to those days.
