Be Excellent To Each Other

We've just had our 50,000th post.

It was this one.

BETEO party!

Whatever, dick.

I mean: hoorah!

ah, but does that count include deleted posts?

is the 50,000 post not this one:
viewtopic.php?p=50000#p50000

The top 10 posters amount to 22,000 posts. I'm #8, I'm a nerd. Grim... is #1, he's poppa nerd.

No, and no.
Just like the 1,000th topic doesn't actually exist

I'm way down in 42nd place. I thought I talked more than that.

Heh - that top ten is a damning list of the usual suspects

I'm safely outside that elite band of nerds at number 12.

I'm wondering if I'll break 10k here or on WoS first...

Wait... You can fucking SEE the member list!?!

Yes. What?

Me too!

...

#11

I'm not in it!

I was top3/4 on WoS

Shush you.

You can see my member any time you want.

No wait wrong forum.

Sorry.

Well, actually, I hope that Grim... is being funny and of course, of course we can see the member list. 'Cos indeed, if we can't, then this is the wrong forum. WoS, specifically.

As he has just patiently explained to me in IM, you have correctly deduced his joke, CUS. I, sadly, did not.

Haha, what a bunch of nerds. *points at the top twenty members*

GAYWOOD IS THE NEW CUS! EVERYONE HATE HIM NOW!

I in turn shall change my name to Roger Rankshaft

*Holds up mirror*

I wonder if that topic on WOS will ever get bumped (and completely ignored) again.

What's your problem, Stu said he'd look into it shortly. 5 weeks seems reasonable to me

I'll do it for him.

For £2, obv.

Speaking of £2, you lucky subscribers have got some more for your money.

/perks up, but expects it to be something Sinister wrote...
/stands corrected
It's stuff about PC Zone.

Close, that's what I thought it might be.

What are you trying to say?

Uh, you just posted the link to the sub content. Was that deliberate?

I like cheese:)

So still nothing new to do with games then?

I assumed it would be locked up somehow. Is that not the case?

Man, I still feel like shit ;(

I feel like Pizza.

Crikey, that was not worth 2 quid.

More like 4 or 6 quid, considering this is the first update for a while. I chose to buy Stuntman Ignition for that price.

For those keeping track we're not into the 4th month of the new era, so £8 spent.

5 things have been posted.

2 are Imagine reprints. I have it on reasonable authority he's doing that illegally. In any case, old content. Time spent on site : 0. It's worth pointing out that while the CVG one especially includes some extra pics, the other RG writers post that stuff for free on the RG forum.
1 is a retred of a feature already on the site. Old content really, and in any case he didn't write it for the site so time spent : 0.
1 is some photos. I can't comment too much because it's the only sub piece I don't have... but it's certainly not games now is it? Obviously if some kindly soul was to PM (after all, piracy helps business) I could make a better judgement.
1 is reprints from PC Zone. Time spent on site : 0.

So 4 months of "have more time to work" and £8 per sub has produced.... some photos and 0 new games related content.

Despite everything, I WOULD subscribe for content, I really, really would. But there hasn't been... well anything that qualifies so far. 2 genuinely new games articles a month, it's all I ask (and being unbanned from the forum if I subscribe, natch). That pays him an unknown amount over £100 per article if he's honest about sub numbers.

I paid £10 for Cars and that crappy wipeout clone thing beginning with F.

Er, oops. Edited and all that.
Anyone that feels they should be donating can do so here: http://worldofstuart.excellentcontent.com/tipjar.htm

At the risk of beating a dead horse, 2 great lines from that page.



*snicker*



*dies*

I'm not sure if the correct phrase is ironic hypocrasy or hypocritical irony. Perhaps I should just say 'laughable twat' and be done with it.

Anyway, 50,000 posts, awesome!

Yeah, let's not have a celebration of this forum's 50k milestone turn into a discussion about the old one.

We don't really have milestones any more, but I have seen whilst driving, a Measured Mile.

What please is a measured mile, and what would be its purpose on a stretch of road in the middle of Yorkshire?

Technically it's not about the old forum

They're markers delineating an exact mile, that has been measured by hand. They are often set up on public roads by motoring clubs so drivers can check that their mileometers are correctly calibrated.

Cool, thanks. I'll use it exactly for that next time I go past!

Oh, we used to have milestones on the Isle of Sheppey.

The £2 a month is because you like Stu and his work. He's now made it a condition to post on the forum as well as getting the bonus stuff. ie stuff that you get for randomly giving stu £2. You get it as a bonus for doing that.

BTW he now also has a blog you only get that if you are a sub.

Malc

OOoooooohhh Stub log!

I also have a blog. I would pay people to read it.
