Happy third anniversary, WXforum.net !
« on: June 29, 2009, 11:43:04 AM »
Wow! Time sure flies by .. we've actually been using WXforum.net since it started on 20-June-2006 and opened on 26-June-2006 with 21 members from the sadly vanished weatherforum.net.  We'd hoped to reclaim the original name from the domain-nappers, but no.. they still want much to much money for it, so WXforum.net remains as a great discussion area for weather enthusiasts (made possible by our great members :) )

During the last year, we saw the sudden demise of the Ambient forum, so we established a set of boards for VWS mutual support and welcomed many members from the former Ambient forum to new discussions here.

Today, we have 1780 members, 4372 topics and 39527 posts .. lots of growth since we've started, and here's looking forward to another year of great discussions! 

Best regards,
Your admins Chris(capeweather), Drew(noquitters), Larry(anole), Ken(saratogaWX)
Your VWS area moderators Anthony(anthony), Bob(racenet), Chris(SLOweather)
Product area moderators Jason(DataCrunchTech), Joe(WeatherForYou), Steve(timplate)

Happy Anniversary, WXforum.net and many more to come!

It not only takes good members to make a forum as great as this one but also a good admin team to keep all of us in check when we get too rowdy or out of hand.  :twisted:

Congrats.

Been hanging around almost a year and am proud to be part of it.

I think I was around #840 something to sign up back in 09/08, so it's more than doubled in size 9 or 10 months.

Congratulations on making this place "THE" quintessential weather information site on the web!

My personal thanks to Ken and all the others who have taken time to answer and address my silly scripting questions :lol:
