Well, considering I'm the guy making the mod...that kinda makes sense :)

Dang that was you making the mod? I thought you were just some guy who spent too much time on the forums like me. :)

I suppose... :D

That is true, but your dedication to the mod shows here too. If you look at, just for instance, Industrialcraft's* forums, posts from all the developers combined total a bit more than half of what you have, and there are half a dozen of them! Now, post count certainly doesn't exactly convey effort on the forums, but it is a generally good indicator. Thanks for putting in your time and effort!

On 100,000 posts, woot!

*disclaimer: I have absolutly nothing against IC or their developers, I in fact have a good deal of respect for Alblaka. IC was chosen simply as a reatively neutral mod.

Do they have that many working on it now? Wow man. The last time I talked to Al (must be around a year ago or so), he was still the sole developer. I had no idea the team had grown like that.

I've got nothing against IC either. All my interactions with Al in the past have portrayed him as a very likeable fellow. Obviously, IC is not my kind of mod as a player, but I certainly appreciate what he's done with it.

Wow 100,000 posts. I love this community, though I find myself lurking more often then posting (I generally don't have a whole lot to add to a conversation). But I wanted to say congratulations on keeping it running this long and still going strong! And of course, thanks FC for the wonderful mod that's provided hours upon hours of gameplay for myself (not to mention some of my family and friends as well).

EDIT: typos

[Ulfengaard]

Cheers, everyone! 100k. Time for a GROUP HUG! *squeezles*

Here's to another 100k for this great community.

[obl1terat1ion]

wow 100,000... not every day you see a mod with a community like that, props to FC and everyone else on this great forum :)

For each milestone like this, I like to go ahead and look at the top ten posters.

1. FlowerChild 10450
2. Gilberreke 2988
3. Stormweaver 2679
4. morvelaira 2589
5. BinoAl 2321
6. walker_boh_65 2297
7. Battosay 1949
8. Urian 1781
9. RaustBlackDragon 1748
10. Sarudak 1676

Take the information as you will. I personally found this time to be a bit strange.

[Sarudak]

I'm in the top ten? O.o

[BinoAl]

Dang, looking at that list, 3 of the top 10 don't seem to post anymore (1 due to a ban, of course)

Well, I'm not completelely sure on that, I don't follow IC as much anymore, between limited time and BTW, but poking around the forum, I noticed that several other users are listed as "IC2 Developers" and are credited as "Coders" in the release threads. It looks like Alblaka still does much coding on the mod, but I really don't know how much work the others are doing. Looking at his blog a bit, it appears that he was not really having enough time to develop the mod as the playerbase wants.

3. Stormweaver 2679

I'm still at three? I doubt I've had more than a post or two a day for months now. That said, the gap between the top 3~4 and the rest of the forum used to be a fair bit bigger...ah well.

I predict the rankings will be a whole new landscape by the time we hit the next milestone; the future belongs to the add-on and SMP forums.

[morvelaira]

Agreed, Stormweaver. I remember aggressively climbing those ranks... I doubt I can keep up now.
