Woo hoo. Six hundred members. Nice steady growth. Great job Jaime, Mike, Committee, Moderator etc.

Aw shucks....we'd be nowhere without all of you

You better remember that, Jaime.

Without me you'd only have 599 and be nobody.

Congrats! I'm happy to be apart of the first 600 members! Ya'll have an EXCELLENT site here, it is very informative, diplomatic and intelligent. I commend all who have worked on this.

I'm glad to be part of this crazy group

I love to debate and a debate you all gave me

Good to be a member here

OK, so I went a head and screwed this all up by deleting all members from before Feb. 24th who have never posted.

We now have 500 members, with 393 of them with at least one post.

That makes sense. Doesn't it save bandwidth doing that?

No, not really. I guess it makes an incredibly small difference in pulling the member list, but not a big difference.

Mainly it reduces the chance that one of these non-active members will receive an email from the board, and therefore keeps the amount of complaints I receive down. I seem to be spending a lot of time writing apology letters these days...

Happy 500th again Americas Debate!
This is like when I lived in Georgia when they were grandfathering the drinking age from 19 to 21. Each year some of my friends turned of age for three consecutive years!

Well once again, happy 600 members Americas Debate.
Or should I say happy 500

Duck and cover zero posters.
