    Today, June 18, 2015 we hit 10,000 members here on M/A.

    For those keeping score...

    2237 days - 6 years, 1 month, 15 days

    Why so long to get to this level?

    Our membership is curated. Bounces, spammers, and requests to be removed are handled here. Most other sites do not take the time to keep the membership rolls clean like M/A.

    Thank you for your support of Motoring Alliance.

    Woohoo!

    Also...

    ...I can vouch for this. Thanks to Nathan putting up one screen after another over the years, there's now less and less of this for me to do, and I just handle a percentage of the second (i.e., the non-automated) line of defense. Nathan gets the rest of that and then fields almost everything that makes it through the net. I don't know how you keep up with it all Nathan.

    And now back to our regularly scheduled program...

    Woohoo, 10K!

    I tell everybody I meet to join M/A, along with handing out MINI5280 cards, and telling them about MINI-COW...

    Word gets around, eventually I guess!

    But I agree... 10,000 members, but so few regular posters! Get off your butts people!
    Maybe they just tune in to read the regulars like its a TV show...

    ^^^ It's nice to see such a strong foundation holding us all up there. Happy 10K Nathan!!

    Just yesterday, I redirected a guy's suggestion that an info seeker over on Mini Mania should visit the Sewing Site to get answers regarding a new MINI question. Clearly the guy offering that advice has no clue what he was talking about.

    Interesting paper. As someone who falls squarely within the 9% segment, I hoped to learn a bit more about that group. As with any face-to-face discussion group I'm guessing there's a large percentage of folks whose introversion limits their upward mobility into the 1% Dave.0 "peak o' the pyramid."

    And OBTW, congrats on the 10K! :Thumbsup:
