You admins better come up with an alternative for us.
You are correct! I don't care about my post count and didn't ever use it for that purpose. I just used it to chat with ****** on a regular basis. It was better than whoring out every thread that came up.

Well, we still have the #mbworld chat room on irc.freenode.net

That won't put any load on the mbworld.org server at all so it doesn't matter how many folks are on and how many messages you send, plus it's in real time

How's things going for you in India buddy?
haha, i would have been up in the 5000's if i would have not left. o well, I just thought it was fun to talk to people and still get your posts up at the same time. It's just a fun time pass for me. I don't see a major difference in the site now that it is gone. maybe its because i'm on 56k right now.

Oscar: things are going good over here. I've been going to a lot of movies and meeting a lot of family. its fun
