And I'll fill my glass again to toast the beginning of what will be an awesome period in Aust Ford Forum activity.
24 hours folks and we are bigger than some forums that are 6 months old. What a start.

Yes...a good job by both the mods to get it up and running and email everyone they know, and also to the users signed up who are referring this site to others

I remember when I joined FF back in '03 that already some guys had over 3,000 posts and I was wondering how on earth was that possible. It's funny after 12 hours and the same people have almost racked up 100 posts already

Anyhow i'm just poking as bit of fun, it's a great achievement guys and news seems to travel very fast on the net nowadays

That is exactly right. Most of us here now had a lot of fun times together on the other forum, and also some fairly intense and insightful one's.

nothing should change, it is the people that make a community.

Absolutely!!!! Wouldn't it be a shame if that forum was shut down and we had no where to converse???!!
Its been great talking to you guys we all kind of get to share a bit of each others thoughts and lives as we go along. Iknow that nothing lasts forever,but lets not let a great thing die.
