If you visited this site, you know that our discussions are second to none. Whether it's Games (http://www.evilavatar.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=3), Deals on Games (http://www.evilavatar.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=22), Home Theater (http://www.evilavatar.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=18), System Building (http://www.evilavatar.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=20), Politics (http://www.evilavatar.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=19)...the list (http://www.evilavatar.com/forums/index.php) goes on and on; there's plenty of discussions that go on here that go way beyond a "simple gaming site."

Sometime today the Evil Avatar community hit over 1 million posts. In my best Dr. Evil voice I say - 1 MEEEEEEEEEEELION Posts.

Congrats guys for making this the best community on the internet.

I only noticed today that it went above a million. Late last night it was below and I thought, "well, we're going to hit it soon". I didn't figure it would be today. Maybe it was my 2,000th post...heh.

I never used to visit any kind of board yet I spent lots of time on the net. I have no idea what I did prior to becoming a regular poster around here and I feel a twinge of betrayal (and disgust) when I have to sign up on other boards.

Good job, all of us!

Seriously. I don't even remember how I found out about this place. But I don't know what I'd do without it.

Meth, probably.

Kudos to the site and Evil, and best wishes that it keep truckin' along.

There's something evil about these boards that keeps me coming back. Some days I sign off and swear, never again will I visit here. Then tomorrow comes, and I crawl back into the depths.

Not trying to nitpick on terminology, but I think we would be a much better community if we abstained from hyperbole such as "the best community on the internet," which is a ridiculious phrase without basis or qualification.Nevertheless, EvAv, is one of the better gaming communities and the site certainly does deserve praises for fostering that.

Then tomorrow comes, and I crawl back into the depths.I think it has something to do with the fact most posters use proper grammar, spelling and logic and that you won't be run out of town on a rail if you happen to have a differing opinion on a game.

Of course, all of that goes out the window once you set foot in the P&R fora :)

I agree; however this should do for qualification:

I, Expugnare, pronounce Evil Avatar to be the greatest and best forum community on all of the internets.

The weird thing about EvAv is we're like a big dysfunctional family. It's pretty bad when I go on a vacation for a week, and I ended up missing you guys. But thats what this site does, it takes you in, makes you part of it, and won't let go... like the Borg. :D

I've been around since evilavatar was hosted on geocities. Also there was dry vermouth from The Texas Martini Foundation. and bitchX.

I'm old. This site has changed a lot since the days of it being a gossip rag.

BitchX haha.
I think the Penny Arcade post is what had a lot of us newbies in at the time..

Before this, I was hanging around in a #Taffers forum. So many whose names started with K there, too.

Gratz on the first mil, Evil.

I imagine that is just on the new forums. I wonder how much earlier we might have gotten this milestone if we never switched over.

It is pretty nifty none-the-less; I've been coming to this site daily for what seems like 10 years and I can almost always find something that interests me at any time of day :)

It's all about perspective. To me, Evil Avatar is the best community on the internet. The basis and qualification is my personal experience of other communities in comparison to this one which I've found to be capable of producing thought provoking threads, be it careful discussion, angry political flaming as well as amusing rampant threadjacking. Overall it's a really good group of people who like games and like to talk about games.

Also, tits.

That's a whole lot of posts. Not hard to understand why though.
I've been a member of many sites, but I enjoy reading this one more than any other (although I stay clear of the politics forum).
I haven't been a member for long relative to some people on here, but I've had more enjoyable discussions in these forums than anywhere else. Not to mention some awesome game recommendations (I'm now officially Atlus' bitch).

So thanks EvAv and here's to the next million!
