jdvmd Posted January 1, 2012 #326 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Is this being played out on any other boards? I know there was a much smaller thread on the "Ask a Cruise Question" board. Maybe if we put a plea out on the other boards????........ Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flashopper Posted January 1, 2012 #327 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Well I am still here. It seems like lots of people have gone out for the evening. Something We have not done in 30 years. We used to call it amatuer night. Now it seems like it is just nicer to be home, safe and with the one (s) you love. Did the Times Square once in my life and thought Never Ever Again. I was 17.

jtl513 Posted January 1, 2012 #330 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Oddly, the post rate has picked up again, at least a little. 580 in the last hour, 1430 to go. Projection at this rate: 22:29 Eastern. I know why! s7s came back! :D :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Funny. One of my daughter's friends just drove all night to get to NYC because seeing the ball drop is on her bucket list. My daughter is watching the festivities in downtown Nashville and their version of the ball dropping. Husband and I are getting a Redbox movie and drinking some great red wine. He didn't understand why we can't go out to eat. We could but just don't want to wait. Said "I don't think the restaurants are going to be crowded." I disagree. In our town, the restaurants are packed every day of the week by 4:30 p.m. so NYE is going to be nuts. I would rather be at home, safe and sound.

Will check it out. Today, I just found out there was a forum for food. The things you discover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flashopper Posted January 1, 2012 #335 Share Posted January 1, 2012 A forum for food? Where? I always just look at the main HAL page and then which ever applies to my cruises. Cooking and reading are 2 of my favorite things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare kazu Posted January 1, 2012 #336 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Does anyone think that CC will acknowledge whoever posts the 30 millionth message? Maye give them a door sign or something? Unfortunately no = Laura S said that they would have no way to know. All you can do is watch the board and wonder if you were the magic person. It really doesn't matter - if we get there - we all contributed:):) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LAFFNVEGAS Posted January 1, 2012 #337 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Yes it is unfortunate they moved the Carnival thread to the Floataway Lounge because posts there do not Count :( So that thread does no good over there. Many years ago it did count which is how some of the CCers that had been around for a long time have such a large count to their numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flashopper Posted January 1, 2012 #339 Share Posted January 1, 2012 I never knew that Lisa, I wondered how someone could have 50K posts and still have a life.

I know individuals don't get an increase in their own post count when they post on that board, but don't know if those posts count toward the grand total.

Rare richwmn Posted January 1, 2012 #342 Share Posted January 1, 2012 We went for an early dinner with our good friends to avoid being on the road with the 'rookies' and are now home. Hope to see the magic number before midnight. We call it amateur night here -- along with home football games, St Patrick's day, Halloween, and several other nights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flashopper Posted January 1, 2012 #345 Share Posted January 1, 2012 You right ahead Lisa, after all it is New Years Eve and useless, usefull info. is what these boards are all about. I jst had a cup of tea and a cranberry walnut muffin. If I started with the champagne I would never make it to 10 or maybe 9 pm. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know individuals don't get an increase in their own post count when they post on that board, but don't know if those posts count toward the grand total. I didn't even realize it was moved until I checked my subscribed threads - so I would have no way of knowing. From what Lisa says, I am guessing we lost all those posts. Guess we should be grateful that our mods 'see the light' when it comes to this. I just don't get why they moved it. but c'est la vie. So much for trying on another board:mad: They were on side, but there were mods (or someone who wanted to red triangle it) weren't Oh well:mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many years ago it did count which is how some of the CCers that had been around for a long time have such a large count to their numbers. I never knew that either! Is that the only forum that's this way? When a thread gets moved there does everybody who posted on it lose them from their total, or is it just from that point on that posts don't count?

That is actually a good question but I think if you posted before it was moved your post count remains, or at least I think so:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare richwmn Posted January 1, 2012 #350 Share Posted January 1, 2012 About now, someone (maybe me) is making a post to bring the count under 1000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
