[thedeparted]

We're within 1k now. whoop whoop. party hardy and stuff. We're getting close to being able to get put on big-boards.com biggest forums by posts list. It's a 500k minimum to be on it.

lol gaia is over 2 billion now

[LiNuX]

I wonder how many total posts we deleted on this forum. Most of them would be for spam, some for other legit reasons.

[foof]

lol gaia is over 2 billion now

Gamers-Forum needs a flash game rpg like Gaia. We need more programmers.

[foof]

LiNuX hack Gaia and steal the source. Then replace all the character modules with food items. Call it GF Food Adventure.

[LiNuX]

I'll just try asking them nicely first.

[CraeSC111]

Then after that doesn't work steal it from them and rebrand it! Its genius!

lol i remember when we had a RPG section on this site. that section was so dead. i think in like 1-2 years it got like 300 posts

Oh definitely, I'd say we could add a few thousand to the list at least because I remember deleting over a 100 posts for one spammer a while back.

[thedeparted]

GF FOOD TIME ADVENTUREEEEEEE.

This is the first character model. It's called ghost burger. they have 100hp and are 50% resistant to physical damage.

[thedeparted]

We attract people, we got 20k members. It's getting people to stay and getting regular people and not just the 1 day type people. Also I think if we do more stuff as a community it'll make people want to stay. A lot of time I feel there isn't much of a community feel here. With it being small I think we really could thrive on that

[CraeSC111]

That's what I was thinking. We need something to keep people involved. I mentioned a YouTube idea but it went nowhere...

[Trunks]

We have movie club and everything, just people don't really do them, hard to make events when people don't show up for them. Same wit the xmas and Newyears get togother we had. It's just no one shows up.

this is Moog. he has 1000 health and is 75% immune to all magic and 25% immune to physical damage. he's the boss of the first level. you will never take his meat. Unless you are a true GamersForum warrior.

[Diligence109]

QUICK EVERYONE IN THE GF IRC FOR A GF MEETUP RIGHT NOW

I'll actually show up for once :D

[foof]

this is FeDoRa. He's one lean, mean fresh cut of meat. His Genetic code was spliced with that of a dragon. The Scientists who created him used Fedora to create him. Hence...the name. To destroy this boss, you need the help of LiNuX. This, is the final boss of GF Food Adventure.

[Muffincat]

you should make a new thread for this, foofle

XD

[CraeSC111]

I would play that game foofle

I have a suggestion, instead of deleting posts maybe just send them to a separate forum, maybe called "Archive" or "Trash"... Better yet move them to a hidden forum.

That way the post count will stay in tact :o

Also Posts: 299,281 as I'm typing this. According to the forum post url, this post is 310,948

I'd rather not keep spam posts anywhere on the forum. We used to have a "Recycle Bin" board where all deleted threads and posts would end up there but I'd rather just delete them.

And the 310k post number is because our database failed a few years back and instead of losing a month of data, I changed stuff around from different tables and had to set the post counter to a bigger value to keep from interfering with the fail part. It's simpler than it sounds, but that's basically the explanation to why that's different from the actual post count.

[thedeparted]

We reached 300,000 today. hooooorayy

[CraeSC111]

Yay *throws handful of confetti in the air*
