Happy 7th Birthday boards.ie Ltd.! / First Post = 9 Years Old Today

    It's been seven years since boards.ie was formed as a company, and today also marks the 9th anniversary of our first historical post on the Quake board (see the archived post here)!

    We'd like to thank all our members for boards.ie's amazing exponential growth during the past number of years, and as we head towards 100,000 members and six million posts, we're looking forward to expanding even more...

    To coincide with this day, we are also launching our new baby - boards.org.uk - a sister site for boards.ie in the UK. We hope to see you there...

    Thanks, and happy posting!

    The boards.ie Team.

    Like renewal says, all the members of boards.us were automatically given accounts on the other sites. or something to the effect. It's here somewhere in a different thread.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 36,634 ✭✭✭✭Ruu_Old


    Cloudie mentioned something here that might explain things.
