Fourth Anniversary Here: Thanks, Guys!

[saundby]

I happened to notice my Member Since: says I joined four years ago (after lurking for a bit, but not too long, as I recall), and thought it's a good time to say this:

Thank You!

I've read books I wouldn't otherwise have read, seen movies I'd have passed on, dodged some dogs in the theater and on the shelves I might have wasted time on, enjoyed a lot of fun discussion on a wide range of subjects and otherwise just really been enjoying things here. There've been a few tenser moments, but they're very much the exception.

So thanks to the management and my fellow COTIs. Looking forward to plenty more.

And, dare I say it? I don't miss the Pit one bit.

I've not been here as long, but I really like this site as well.

Congrats on 4 years!

 

[ShapeShifter]

Congratulations! Four years is a milestone on CotI. And how many times have you been perma-banned?

You know...in these parts we have a "Crossing the Line"* ceremony: let's jus' say it involves an airlock. :rofl:






* Perhaps we should rename it "Crossing the Galactic Plane" or somesuch.

Only 8 years yourself?

:devil:

It feels good to be COTI-1. I think I made my last age roll, that feels good after missing a couple.

Vacc Suit: do I get a skill cascade from SCBA plus chem/acid suit?

Still, beats my rocket hazing...climbing up the business end of a Minuteman III with an electric match in my hand. That's what I got for not falling for the first two tricks. :rofl:

A happy member? We must be doing something wrong...

Perma-ban ftw.

Can't have this kind of sedition spreading.

Well yeah still a bit wet behind the ears myself. I did have another moniker for a year then I changed e mail I was Zaphod before.
