WOW thats a huge increase! 8030 more posts this year over last. That means we all not only kept up with the huge increase during 2008 posting, but set a new RECORD!
During six individual months we posted more than the year before, which is awesome!
Addy joined us in January of 2009 and since then has reached 7014 posts! Compare that to the extra 8030 we had and you can see how much one person can make an impact!
PROPS to her, everyone congratulate her for being awesome!
Xicor made his own dent, reaching 4M Master in the shortest timespan ever!
Next time he shows up, throw some cake his way!
Conclusion: 2009 was a great year for 4M! Lots of new faces, new boards and features, and lots of new artwork and animations by Kinjo! Emo's 4 was pretty sweet!
Ironically enough, that Last Person to Post Wins thread thats still around from 2008 has gotten 5,240 posts over 2009! Post in other topics!
Take care 4M,
