Cybertron.ca reaches 5000 members

[Super_Megatron]

Good to see the boards continuing to grow (even though we could do without the spambots :) ). Lots of people have mentioned to me how they were able to get such great deals from other Canadians through our BST forum here, really glad to hear that. Also good to continue to see people reporting the latest toy sightings to keep their fellow collectors up to date on the latest releases as they become available at retail. Spread the word! Add a Cybertron.ca link in your signature on other boards! Mention the site to other collectors you meet at toy shows and even in the toy isle! Tattoo the URL on your ass like DAK!

[Team Jetfire]

...and I helped!

I still can't belive the amount of canadian collectors.

[Protoman]

Tattoo the URL on your ass like DAK!

Hmmm if more people came here due to that tattoo I would wonder how then came about seeing it to begin with........ unless Dak is an assless chaps kinda guy.

[GMfan]

I SEEN EM!

(guess the movie :P)

[Super_Megatron]

I SEEN EM!
DAK's ass tattoos?

Hmmm if more people came here due to that tattoo I would wonder how then came about seeing it to begin with........ unless Dak is an assless chaps kinda guy.
Is he ever.

[JLvatron]

...and I helped!

You helped tatoo a URL on someones... ??? :eek:
Dude! :mad:

Don't be offended if people refuse to shake hands at TFcon! :D :p :D

[jourdo]

Congrats Cybertron.ca!

So, is that like 30 - 40 active members and the rest are spambots?

[Dark Rage]

Congrats Cybertron.ca!

So, is that like 30 - 40 active members and the rest are spambots?

Pretty much.

More like one-time lurkers/scalpers, especially over this summer. '08 BB anyone?

Congradulations on the amount of members here, although what is dak to do if the website domain changes? :D

As long as dak's buttcheeks aren't used as a promotional picture for the website, we're trying to get more people to visit here, not scare them off!

[BadJeff]

Congrats Cybertron.ca!

So, is that like 30 - 40 active members and the rest are spambots?

30-40 active with the balance split between lurk-bots, porn-bots and scalp-bots:p

[Benzo]

yay for Canada!

lol

I wondered if my old 80's referance to a tv comercial about baking would be lost. :o

[noodle]

congrats cybertron.ca and those 30ish active members whom made what cybertron.ca is today! and for all you spambots/scalpers thinking about joining, "Somebody's gonna get a hurt real bad"...if you do!:p

[CobraCommander]

Long live Cybertron!

[Nightbeat]

I haven't even been here for a full year yet (I think) and I've managed to snag a number of transformers I'd been looking for for some time from the BTS forum.

I've used the sponsors for other things, and just enjoy the conversation here.

[Super_Megatron]

It's good to be able to interact with other Canadians that share the same experiences as you when it comes to this hobby.

[soundwaveCA]

Awesome, you guys all rock!

I think the site overall has really been a great success and has connected a lot of Canadian transfans together. Just through the BST alone I've personally been able to connect with a lot of people since the site began and it's been great getting to know more of you out there. And just think we've only been around since mid-April or so.

So far I think we have the foundations for a great Canadian TF community going here which will only grow stronger in the future. We have a great thing going here and its you guys who make it that way.

[Icetron]

Congrats! :D

Keep up the great work guys. :)

[Robimus]

Thats great!:) I think the same handful of us that were on at 1000 are still keeping it going at 2000. For all the collecting sites I frequent I would honestly say this one is the best. Its got a great format, is easy to navigate and the posting members are all great folks! Thanks to Bigbot(SuperMegatron) and all the Mods for all your excellent work. Thanks-Rob.

P.S- I don't think we've had a post from a new Manitoba member in months. Come on MB, get off yer butts!

[pud333]

Finding this site totally saved my Christmas. :D Also, it's awesome that people on this site are so friendly and helpful.

[Nocturn]

much thanks to the sightings forum my collection has grown. ^_^

[-KG-]

The sightings forum helps a lot and I've gotten a ton of great deals because of it. Congrats and thanks guys!

[BadJeff]

All things considered, this site has been of great service to me and many others. It's really nice to have our own site with the Canadian focus. I've had nothing but positive experiences meeting some of the local members in person and great dealings with many of you on line.
Big pat on the back to all of you out there that maintain the site and moderate, it's a lot of work i'm sure and it's definately appreciated.

[Super_Megatron]

We've now reached 3000 members. Thanks to everyone for a great community.

[Nightscrabbler]

Let's dedicate this to the spambots.

[Pascal]

Yeah... out of the 3000 members, how many are really active here? 30? From what I've seen on other boards, several register just to access the pictures or the sightings threads that won't display otherwise...

[pud333]

The number that are consistently active and posting are defintiely few and far between, but I think there are lots of lurkers. I'm a lurker on a bunch of other non TF sites; this is the only one I've posted on for any regular amount of time. It's a great resource and community for lurkers and posters alike, so 3000 is definitely a great achievement! Besides, spambots also need love. :D

[Dark Rage]

More lurkers...hurray?

[brr-icy]

i'm not a lurker lol, i'm on everyday, i don't know any london collectors so it's nice to talk to some ppl with the same intrest

[noodle]

Let's dedicate this to the spambots.

hey I'm also from 123456 too!!1

More lurkers...hurray?

ohhh those Lurkers... emiting their waves of supra-dense spines against enemies, and having a full width of damage of ten meters! Damn you! But, there only weakness is that they're virtually defenseless while above ground. I'll get you yet with my army of SCVS!!! :D

...seriously though, thank you everyone [including Lurkers and Spambots] for making Cybertron.ca what it is today...

[GMfan]

Everybody wave to the new scalpers :P

[Tech Spec]

*waves* to all spam-bots, lurkers and scalpers :D

[noodle]

*waves back to Tech Spec*... LOL!

[jourdo]

*waves* to all spam-bots, lurkers and scalpers :D

Yay to the silent majority!! Thanks for helping us grow as a site.

*waves back to Tech Spec*... LOL!

LOL!!!

Also, a personal thank you to all the new scalpers using the sightings threads.

And to the spambots, I thank you for showing me where to buy my stolen electronics, find the cheap viagra, etc. Thanks bots!!

[Tech Spec]

LOL :D

Good question, Pascal. Just for you I did some detective work.

540 usernames have posted more than once. Samples of the 2, 3, and 4-time posters revealed genuine posts. This means 540 non-lurkers!:eek: :cool:

If 'active' is defined at 10 posts, that makes 295 usernames.
Not bad!:)

[GMfan]

So about 1/10 of the total number of members are active....groovy

[Nocturn]

thought it had to be done so....

IT'S OVER 3000!!!!!!!

[Pascal]

How many unique deca-posters in the last 30 days for fun?

[-KG-]

When are they releasing this "Spambot"? What's it's alt mode? :D

[soundwaveCA]

Hooray!

[Super_Megatron]

Well, we reached 5000 members today. In the last couple months our number of users online has been around 100 and our traffic levels have increased quite a bit. Seems that more members have been signing up and posting which is good. Glad to see more Canadians finding us!

At least the ratio of spambots to posters has decreased since the "early days".

Congrats to the staff of Cybertron.ca for keeping us going strong.

[Batman]
