Awww, bloody hell! Matt left his stupid cookies on my bloody computer! People are going to think I'm trying to double impersonate someone (or something like that).

Jeez, I have a (bad) reputation to uphold. That's the last time I ever let him use my bloody computer to access the net.

Yep. People love it. It attracts people who have never played Ares for more then 10 minutes (glares at OctoberFost) and the like from ALL over.

Wow, with such a strong topic heading, I thought this would be something important.

I don't really come here. I only saw it because I wanted to check out something but I pressed the wrong URL. The page loaded surpisingly fast (for BT) and I was amazed to see my fat-head old self there with the head title. Is it bigger than 'The Resistance LIVES!'?

(I gave Matt a good slap round the head for that mistake. I've told him about the dangers of double-membershiping [is there such a word called membershiping??])

Yeah, I assume you're talking about "Hehe," and it's nowhere near as big as the Ares Officer's Club Bar, like Pharris said. As I write this, that topic has 885 replies... sick sick sick people...

The resistance is almost to 500, hehe is almost to 700, and the Officer's Club bar is almost to 900 (887 as of this post). See the pattern? We ares folks can actually concentrate on one topic more than you EV people. Posted Image

If you read The Resistance LIVES!, I'm one of the people who post there (even though my writing isn't as good as the others).
The Resistance is a hard topic to maintain. The posts there are amazingly long, and take a lot of energy to crank out. I bet that that topic, in word count, would beat Hehe by a longshot (no offense to you Gav, Hehe is my favorite of all these boards).
It might even nip at the Officer's Club Bar's tail if you counted the words in full.

I might even venture to think that Chapter One: A New Beginning is longer. Word count...

178435 characters
30838 words
61 Pages, AW style
(No, I didn't count. I just imported the text into AW6 a while ago)

Well remember, the average post in an RPG is MUCH longer than the two to three lines in a typical "hehe" post. Shows what a little elegant prose does to a perfectly good topic. Posted Image

Pyro discovered that the Ring Attack HQ (2 webboard pages, mostly long posts in paragraphs) was over 92 pages in Appleworks. No headers and all.
