Here I sit, trying to picture a holy carp!!!

Congratulations on 30,000 posts, on the best bowling site on the web. I'm surprised that I'm 5th on the # of posts, didn't realize I am that talkative. And thanks to those that have placed me in the top 25 in reputation, I'll try to live up to it. -- JohnP

Nice carp!

And congrats Eric for a great forum! My other life has kept me really busy so I haven't been as active lately, but I still check in daily to see what's going on. I still try to post when I can but also am glad there are now many others who surpass my knowledge who are around to help.

Knowledge is only power, if you share it with everyone.

I'm glad this site is here to both teach me, and allow me to share my knowledge.

We also crossed the 1600 user threshold a few days ago.

Kudos to all.
May all beings everywhere be happy and free,
and may the thoughts, words, and actions of my own life
contribute in some way to that happiness
and to that freedom for all.

I think Greg has said it best:

If I may add, most of us have a "deep" love of the game and have a sincere concern of the direction of bowling-as-an-institution has taken and contintues to be taken by its "power brokers".

Thank you Eric and one day soon a check will be in the mail. :oops:

This is the greatest site ever to come along and can only help build the future of our sport. Congratulations go out to all of those who brainstormed this great addition to the web and has helped build it into what it is today.

I constantly recommend this site to those I bowl with as a tremendous tool for improving their game as well as knowing what's going on in the industry and keeping up with technology. There is no other place for bowlers of all caliber to get the information available here.

Keep up the great work and forget the 40,000 I'm betting over 50,000 by the end of 2012 !!
