It's been a while since I posted here, but I thought I'd pop in and see what's changed or not.

The next thing you'll try to tell me is that he'll be trying to sock puppet in.

Too late, was cleaning the Besson's litterbox and it spilled out

Speaking of poop right

SpaceMonkey · Oct 14, 2010, 05:40 PM

I'm still just as clever as you remembered.

Yup... The highlight of that for me was Doofy telling Big Mac that he went to Satin school on account of his religious beliefs.

Are you sure it wasn't velvet school?

It may have been something, but it wasn't a "battle royale". If it was a battle royale, everyone would be dead. Except me.

Hmmm. Kou Shibasaki.

Models. Lots of them. You need them for the fittings, see.

GIS is getting worse. On page 7 of "crushed velvet dress" with the safesearch on moderate, there's a big old fat dildo.

Mike - rehab then drank himself to death

Cody - god gave her MS. hopefully dead or at least unable to use a computer ever again

Rob - wife left him, divorced

Juan - idk

Link - still a lonely virgin

karl - changed his name, still accepts his daughter

flannel shits are back in style

Also I don't understand why there are new mods when no one really visits Macnn anymore

Strange how all the people that say its dead have left or been banned.

I wouldn't mind being ensconced in her.

Thanks for the opinion Mr Been-here-two-years.....

Most users ever online was 6,340, Jun 20, 2004 at 06:51 AM.
Currently Active Users: 433

Yup, you read that correctly 2004 and today we had about 6 percent of that number of reader across ALL the boards.
MacNN is past its peak. Readership is down. These days people use facebook instead

Stogieman · Oct 15, 2010, 04:59 PM

I trying to remember why so many people were visiting the forums on June 20, 2004. SteveNote maybe?

The Final Dakar · Oct 15, 2010, 05:00 PM

Sixteenth Chapel?

reader50 · Oct 15, 2010, 05:20 PM

I've long figured the 6,340 came during a MacWorld. Right before vB crashed. We've never had that kind of traffic on a normal day.

Big Mac · Oct 15, 2010, 05:27 PM

Was that one of the last Macworld NYs? The biggest news in June 2004 was the introduction of the Rev. B G5s.

Yeah, its definitely a lot quieter here then when I first arrived. There's certainly some things the owners of 'NN could do to help drive traffic to 'NN but that's really a thread for the feedback forum.

My point is that I've been here long enough to see the ebb and flow of this place. Its a nice forum and while I belong to other places this has a personality that's less stuck up and also is not full of fanboys.

Jesus, how was that not an obvious joke? Who on earth would believe 6000+ mac users would give a shit about someone's colossal non-Apple related mistake?

Spheric Harlot · Oct 16, 2010, 07:18 PM

I dunno. It was a pretty epic moment in board history.

Spheric Harlot · Oct 16, 2010, 07:23 PM

June 20th 2004, btw, was the Sunday after Apple opened the iTunes Music Store in France, Germany, and the UK.
