This board is the third or fourth one since the inception of the Tpunk site. Had a bunch of free ones that came with tons of pop up ads! If I had all of the original members, of the past three, we´d probably be at 200 members now ! Not all active of course
I am grateful for the progress of the board and the awesome members that have contributed to it for the good of all travelers! I´ll definitely get the keg! Who´s house ? Hey, someday there will be a regular Tpunk meet up! I´ll work on that.

You guys rawk! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Prize for the 100th member...how about for the 1000th member

Dio, if you wanted a prize, why the hell did you let me steal all that money from you in the story contest????It took me 30 or so minutes to write that story, and took home a clean 167$ CDN...what were you thinking woman??? the moral of this story is....to win, you must play :P

You know the weird thing is, is that if I were givings away prizes like towels and flashlights, I probably would have had a big turn out! I guess when 99% of the people hear that there are cash prizes, they automatically assume that they´ll never win(except for C-Dude! Good for you! ).


Hey, when this site gets to the major leagues, I won´t forget my homies B) ! Know, what I´m saying #11?!

Dio, you can try and hurt me on the inside all you want, but I know its not what you really mean, take a deep breath and say "IN WITH THE GOOD" and exhale "OUT WITH THE BAD".....you will feel soo much better...

( as Candian Dude wonders what he going to spend his prize money on)


:P :P :P B) :P :P

I still love ya baby!!!!!

These travel boards start to get more interesting when they hit 1000 members but I like the feel of this board even though it's just beginning. The Lonely Planet Thorn Tree just surpassed the 100,000 member mark but the great majority of message boards on yahoogroups and msn groups have only a 100 to 400 members.

When I'm stuck in one place for whatever reason cruising these boards reminds me of the high energy I feel when I'm traveling the world.

Thanks PB! Welcome back(been a while since you registered)! Glad that you feel the high energy from these boards. It´s a lively group, indeed B)

Someday this board will reach the status of LP´s! I will work my ass off to get to that status, it may take time, but it´s in the plans. Just need some time

Thanks CD but remember, I´m sure all this board will agree that you´re one of the BIG reasons for the proactive-synergistic tone of this board B) . Take a bow, dude
