shit, i've been here for about 4.5 years already...and have been browsing for at least 6.
the race to 20,000 posts was hilarious, just simply as being one of the most anti-climactic moments in ns history. Everything went nuts before/during, then as soon as they got there, it seemed like everyone involved was banned.
And of course when they actually hit chad's gap, essentially launching the greatest claim in NS history.
Oh! and not too long ago, but when we finally hit 100,000 members. Just because every member between about 98,000 and 100,000 was an alias as everyone was trying to get member number 100,000.
nantucket, lil_g, nsspellchecker, and various others were just fantastic.
