It seems to have passed without notice, but a few days ago this forum celebrated it's 9th anniversary. It's been quite a ride.

Thanks to Everybody,

Wasn't here for the whole thing, but do remember that it was worth it even with all the popups.

Thanks to you Elliot for starting up the best vintage card site on the internet. I think next month marks my 6th year on Net54.

Who is this Eliot guy and why is everyone thanking him?

I thought Lichtman started this mess!

[Kenny Cole]

I was also a member of the old Full Count board, both when it was civil and when it blew up.

E led us out of disaster and into something much better. Those of you who weren't around then have no idea how much this board is his board. Bill did a great job moderating after E chose to leave, and Leon has obviously picked it up and run with it since then, but E gave birth to this board. Thank you is completely inadequate, but is, at least, a start.

Best always,

Kenny

[Griffins]

Well said Kenny. I remember the day the full count board shut down for good, and Elliot stepped right up and set up 54. John seemed to point everyone towards Mike's yahoo board, but E prevailed and the yahoo board was closed pretty soon.
Big thanks to Bill, Leon and Elliot for all they do and have done.

Anthony, just to be clear, it wasn't a competition with Mike's board. Mike was and is a great guy, but the Yahoo board just didn't have a lot of functionality, even for it's day.

I think the Board has been fortunate with Elliot, Bill and Leon (& staff). Good-hearted people with a love for the hobby.
