500 members.  \o/  I was gonna write a big spiel for this but, as it turns out, I'm just no good with words so I'll just sum it up:
Thanks to everyone who's posted and contributed.  You're all lovely and wonderful, and I hope this place makes you all happy.  :)
Whoo! *Pours glasses of sparkling fruit juice for everyone*
I think some congratulations are also in order for you too Eich! :3

We owe a lot to you, Eich, for investing so much of your time and energy into creating and maintaining this forum.  Not just technically, but as a leader, contributor, and guiding spirit.  You play a large part in keeping the Forum a place enjoyed and peacefully shared by a diverse group of people literally around the world.  Which, as many posters remark, is a refreshing contrast to a lot of other corners of the Internet!
[...]
BTW, Eich, you're too modest about your word skills, in my opinion as a "communications professional."  You said everything I would've said, just as eloquently and in half the space.   :)
Agreed! To the Forum! And Forum-Thor Eich! *toasts*
:)

*joins toast* To the most best Forum! (And Forum-Thor, though that's more of a case of "I have never seen/met another Forum-Thor, so by default you're the most best :P)

i heard the sounds of celebrations *picks up fiddle*

to be fair I'm also of the opinion that 500 regular posters would be super intense and I would be way too scared to post anything myself, but this is definitely one of the coziest fandoms i've had the pleasure to partake in, so congrats for forum milestone!!

^seconding this (thirding this?)

500 active members would intimidate me to the point of not joining. The reason I like this fandom is that everyone gets to know each other. I've never been in a (should I say... close-knit?) fandom like this one before, and it's perfect for me. (I love all of ya)

Oh my gosh, this fandom is a lot bigger than I thought! To the most best, least rude fandom! *also toasts* This is my first forum ever and I'm really glad to say that it's been a very good experience so far, so thank you Eich for 1. being a lot better with words than you're giving yourself credit for and 2. making a wonderful forum in general!

And wow 500 regular posters would probably be really hard to keep up with. Fourthing that that would be super scary and I probably would have just been a lurker for like. Five years before joining instead of my five days (had to be updated in the art thread  8))

Yeah, it's in seven six days but I'm so excited--

also nothing very interesting seems to happen in my life anyway so I felt this was worthy of sharing

Ho, I just experienced reading an SSSS page within an hour of it being posted for the first time. It's beautiful.

Has Minna changed her schedule? She used to post these at like 5 AM GMT+1.

My sentiments precisely! For a first online community to join, I believe I chose well :D

This is truly a cause for celebration! *Breaks out the licorice and cookies*

Came back to school after break ended today fully expecting to need to go to the store and pick up some groceries, but past-me was smart, and didn't throw away those last two pieces of bread he thought might go bad.  So, no groceries today, and an early update for the comic...  The end to this break could have been a whole lot worse, all in all.

So you had two pieces of bread for dinner?

You need some real food.  :P
