We are quickly advancing on the 2000 member mark. I would like to publicly welcome all the recent new members who have found the site and opted to enlist. I promise you won't start getting any junk mail. Heck I don't even use the "mail-all-users" function to announce things anymore. Of course that's partially because I would be affraid it would crash my mail server! hehe
Thanks also to our regular gang of users. This site wouldn't be the same without your continued support and interaction.
Hopefully in a bit we will get all our server glitches and performance upgrades out of the way so I can get to really working on what I think people want to see....CONTENT!

Cheers,
Jim

It's been said enough before, but I don't mind repeating this : Armorama wouldn't be there without Jim and all the time he puts in. We owe you a huge thank you for all the energy you spend on this. It's really appreciated, Jim !
Three cheers for the boss !

Where's my funky Iraqi general rank that was here on my profile a few years ago? Did they strip my rank, after all I've done for this forum ? Robbery!!

Yeah
I second the opinion of Jan. If it wasn`t the time and work Jim put into the site it would not be as it is now. There for a great hooray to the big master Jim and already a big congratulation for heading to the 2000 members

Thanks guys. I wouldn't be able to do it without help and content from all of you.
Robert, I just noted I screwed up your sig line when I added your campaign ribbon just now. You can fix it of course in the my account area. Just wanted to give you a heads up on that.
Cheers,
Jim
