Exclamation Conspiracy on the forums!

There was no 1,000th member! I distinctly remember amber being 995th, Khanzumer was 999th, and Mac the Janitor was 1,001st, but there is no member between Khanzumer and Mac. There are nefarious forces of evil at work on the forums! Could it be aliens?

Next thing you know, the Help Forum will disappear, and people playing AO will be stuck forever in the Scrab Nest because they can't figure out how to roll while running!

Then they will take away our stars, and our ranks will be Pokemon characters instead of Oddworld characters!

Next, they will *is grabbed by two men in white suits, who drag Doug away screaming 'Aliens killed JFK! Hitler is alive and is planning the Fourth Reich from a UFO! There are autopsied alien bodies in Roswell, New Mexico! The moon landing was faked on a Hollywood sound stage!' The men in suits drag Doug to a remote area and strip off their disguises to reveal their alien ugliness beneath. All three are beamed up to an unseen spacecraft . . . .*

First the moon landing was faked at area-51, the theory about Hitler is still not proven, and there are more than just aliens at Roswell............................How is this in relation with the 1000 member?

Ugh... When Doug did that it was meant to be a joke. It wasn't meant to be taken seriously.

Also, Doug,I noticed that too. I didn't think much of it at first, though.

"No, just all part of my plans for World Domination... If you can't work out how this helps me, then it's working...(Posted by Dan.)"

Lol...how intriguing.

"First the moon landing was faked at area-51, the theory about Hitler is still not proven, and there are more than just aliens at Roswell............................How is this in relation with the 1000 member? (Posted by Morphius.)"

Like sum1 sed...dont take it seriously. And if u do...dont speak.
I agree, the moonlanding was faled. That 'Theory.' that Doug posted about Hitler was (I assume.) A JOKE...so, of course its not proven. And there are no 'Aliens' at Roswell. The UFO thing is a Government coverup. Sure...some might have some down to say 'Hey...hows it going.' but i dont think they would have crashed, took away and experimented on...Jesus Christ.

First, loose the quote, and next there is a Hitler theory and you obviously know nothing about the crash, I can tell you almost everything about the Roswell crash, of course there was a cover up........There is more to it then you think, especially to the thing you used to type the last quote........

USA have military aircraft that they make us believe is UFO's.

The only problem is you are stating something, that you know nothing about.........I do not care what you think because it is not you who will be judging me in the end..........

Morphius, allow me to reiterate for the hard-of-understanding: Doug was joking.

Theories dimwitt, theories are usualy made up by attention seekers or people trying to solve cases without all the clues. It doesn't make them at all true.

We understand that. It's just we already know it, and it had nothing to do with what we were talking about.

The difference between Einstein's theories and UFO theories is there is evidence for his theories.

1000th Member Here

Member numbers actually still exisit... but they are just used so the database can store them. Look at anyone's profile and you will see something like userid=1000 in the URL.

The display of numbers was a feature of the UBB. vBulletin does not use it. I never really liked the Member Number display anyway, it kind of made it seem like you were ranked based on your member number.

Eh, sorry to burst everyones conspiracy theory. Please continue on as per normal.

OK, I read your last post on the lottery.

It proves to me that you don't have the slightest clue about what you are talking about. You know the words "money" and "bank" and "savings" and "invest" go together, but you don't have any idea how.

Worse yet, you have no sense of humor whatsoever.
