Happy 7th Anniversary [Happy 14th Anniversary]

Post by cfs »

Happy 7th anniversary to the forum and forum members.

This week the forum reached the lucky 7, and we were right on the money with our "Why this forum WILL BE successful" post: http://www.bogleheads.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=717

But that prediction was then, and this is now. Time to open the time capsule. By the numbers (as of 0730 Pacific Time, 22 February 2014):

Total Post: 1,933,630
Total Members: 34,581

And here is another set of predictions, we will reach the next big milestones on:

2,000,000 posts by Memorial Day 2014
35,000 members by the 4th of July 2014

Thanks forum administrators for all you do.

Thanks for reading.

Thanks to everyone. (I retitled the thread.)
