And that goes from this Ozzie as well, I will have a toast to Orchid Geeks tonight.

Any available statistics to show? This year vs last?
Active Users vs last year?
New Users since last year? Membership enrollment vs last year?

Stuff like that... ?

I hope that helps you

[fred]

may be you would like to copy that then I can then delete the 3 posts to get back to the topic
just drop me a pm and I well do that thanks

[jbigio]

A happy and health new year to all and may we finally see peach on earth.

[rmt135]

A very HAPPY NEAR YEAR from me & my family. Many thanks to all the tips that I had gathered.

No matter what race, religion or believe, lets bring peace to this world.

Happy orchid growing.

[robb]

As the current calendar year ends, perhaps it is fitting to point out that most animals and plants have moved past the end already, and are just getting ready for the longer days ahead (except down under, where it's reversing). Irregardless, my best wishes to all for happy times ahead in all your endeavours!

[exasperatus2002]

Thank you and have a safe & happy New Year!

[Tobi]

To all the Orchid Geeks; A very Healthy, Happy and Prosperous New Year. I have enjoyed
sharing my time with each and every one of you and hope to continue to do so through
the upcoming new year. May you all have a wonderful growing season with many blooms!!

Regards,
Tobi

[pikevi]

Thanks fred.

I wish you all a very happy and healthy New Year. Oh.... I will throw in 'wealthy' too. Have a great year and beyond.

fred: I think we all should thank you for being so helpful, via this forum, to so many new comers.

It was, and is, a pleasure to be a part of this group. It has been a very positive experience to be with the members . Only downside of being in here, for weaklings like me, is that all the forum discussions drive us to go and buy more orchids.

Thanks for accomodating people like slippery_biscuit and I , who may be considered as vaguely non-conformists {I apologise to slippery_biscuit if I am 'dragging' him down to my level)}

N.B. : I was sweating in my shoes when I read the responses to his post on trimming roots

Let this year be more productive than the last

PKV

[joan gero]

Thanks to Fred and all the moderators and wonderful members who make this forum such a rich and helpful source of information and encouragement. May our plants and lives grow strong together in a more peaceful, blossom-filled 2008!

[cupcake]

Oh PKV wealthy would be good! But healthy and happy New Year to everyone! May your present orchids survive and may you acquire many more in 2008! Judi

[kmarch]

From henceforth Fred shall be known as the King of Raw Data! Based only on a quick scan of the data it looks as though the forum use is pretty consistently increasing and that use has more than doubled in the last year.

I dare say the members of the forum are successfully reaching the goals of the forum namely useful information from friendly members! Congrats to all members, and a big thanks to those regularly contributing to the forum through their questions, discussion, and information. I even read a recent post where a member said that this forum was their, "preferred place to talk about orchids."

I'm looking forward to 2008!

[arleneg]

Wishing you all a Happy, Healthy, & Prosperous New Year!!

Well, I'm not sure about the prosperous part since we will spend a bit more on orchids next year.

Cheers!!

[pikevi]

Thanks cupcake. I do hope I will have more flowers. I have been fairly successful in growing them but not making them bloom.

kmarch: I think a few somewhat controversial posts/threads have just added more flavour to the forum and kept the adrenaline high. fred has been reasonably accommodative with those tangent threads.

I hope membership and the participation grows more and more during the coming year.

[fred]

Yeah I don't mind a little controversial posts/threads but I must say I keep a close eye on them.
I try to keep the forum a happy place for all the members usually when things get out of hand a quick PM sorts things out pretty quickly.

I see orchidgeeks as a good forum and I will protect that at all costs.
I must give credit to the members though and also to the Super Moderators
as we can all see members love to come back because we are a good orchid forum
Yeah I know I have a strong passion for the forum and its members
that makes my work more enjoyable.

[Tony]

Happy and Healthy New Year to All. This has been a great site and in the past year, I have learned a great deal from everyone here. Lets hope the site continues to grow. Tony M.

[Sharyn]

Happy New Year to all. It's been a very pleasant experience and lots of fun being a part of the Orchidgeeks community. May all of you have good health, happiness and a big fat wallet to support the addiction.

[Joan]

A happy, healthy and peaceful New Year to everyone.

[BillC]

I am always at the back end of the hunt, only just returned home.

My New Year wish to all geeks:

May your rice-bowl never be empty

Bill

[patticake]

AMEN-

[fred]

Nice to see you back with us safe and sound Bill
happy new year to you and your family mate

[BillC]

Thanks Freddie, had a great time with the family in Denmark; just recovering from drinking moonshine (probably made in the bath). Best wishes to you and your Lady.

Bill

[NancyG]

Happy New Year to all.

Interresting statistics, thanks Fred.

There is always something to learn on this forum and you get advice quickly.

NancyG

[pikevi]

yea, I agree with you NancyG. But I was wondering why the spikes in Dec. and Feb. ( may be I have a few theories)
