The XH Revolution Anniversary

[xuab]

Okay, I know the board was around before the revolution and its not really the anniversary, but this board became the place for X basketball a year ago this week. Looks like it picked up steam on January 11th, 2008.

Kind of fun to read the first posts... like "Is there an admin out there?" "Yea, it's almost like we've all stumbled upon a lost city.", "feels like I've gotten out of jail". There was a sense of euphoria among us to have found a new home.

So, thanks mostly to Muskie for giving us this board and all the mods for their time and setting the right tone. I really think it's a well-run board with so many great posters and in a mostly very respectful manner. For those who haven't become a supporting member, think about doing it. (BTW, do our yearly subscriptions automatically renew or do we have to do so? Will we get a reminder?)

Can't rep you again yet, but I would if I could. I agree that it came at a great time.

I can remember when I came over here for the first time, and it was a ghost town. I was thinking that this format is EXACTLY what everyone had wanted, and had been suggesting to the the folks that run the old board (can't even remember the name of it anymore). It was pretty dang sweet when everyone started coming over to this place. I think I said it about a millon times that first few weeks, but Thanks again Muskie for getting this thing together!

While I once used he other board, this one is King for me. I no longer even think about MM...oops I said it. The format is better, the upkeep is better and I just enjoy it much more. Oh yeah, it doesn't crash either.

They auto renew, but you can go in and change it if you choose not to renew. No pressure either way. I plan on running the site as long as allowed :)

Space Ghost was a fascist anarchist jerkoff. Whatever happened to that guy?

I fully intended to renew again. Thanks for letting me know that I need to do nothing (or should I say pull a Jimmy Binnie) to make it happen. It's a bargain for all the hours I spend here.

I was reading through those threads and started wondering what happened to Jesus Christ. Posts 3 and 4 of the last thread in that list cleared it up for me.

6/27/07 is the first day Svo and I made the site. You can't see the thread, because it's in an admin only forum.

Who made the graphics for the top Banner?

One of the posters over at Gold Helmet.

I was going to start a thread just like this on 1/11 and call it 'The Great Migration' but the amazin xuab beat me too it. Hard to believe that is has been a year since we started posting over here. Love the place though and hope to keep posting for years to come.

Bump, since BBC08 pointed out the 11th is the real anniversary. Thanks again to all who make this board possible to talk XU hoops.

[Muskie]

It's also my birthday coincidentally.

Happy Birthday Muskie!
