Thread Starter 

WOW

Can you guys believe it... we're at 20,000 members of our super wonderful community!

woot

Congratulations to everyone for making BYC such a welcoming, friendly, fun and helpful place to be!

To celebrate this amazing occasion we've increased the PM storage for all our members by 30%!    This means you've not got space to save 100 messages!

This should be enough space to get some messages from the tons of new members that are signing up every day.  In fact, you can guess and win a prize if you know when we'll hit 22,222 BYC members here: http://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=114085

Thanks Rob smile

In case I didn't tell you lately, I appreciate all the new facets of BYC.  I don't participate in the non-chicken stuff, but it is often a good read and I always learn something  (like how not to behave).

Merry Christmas!  I hope you and your family have a great holiday!

ps:  My guess for 22,222 on 4/26/09 is waay off.
