Hurray For Literature Network!

[Pensive]

Most users ever online was 607, Yesterday at 11:24 PM (Pakistani timings).

I jut noticed it and I could not believe that I missed it and I am also astonished and happy as well that we are having so many guests and members day by day. :banana:

[Logos]

It was certainly a milestone :D

[Taliesin]

Hurrah, if we are not mistaken comes from the Old Mongols from where it traveled to Russia from where it probably traveled to english language.
It originally meant: "Kill them all!"

[Pensive]

It originally meant: "Kill them all!"


:eek: :eek: :eek:

I think "hurray" or "hurrah" is related to joy or approval.

[Taliesin]

Yes.
Approval and joy of killing them all. A warcry.
And the meaning of words changes over time.


On the other hand, the origin could be an urban legend too, but we doubt it.

[ElizabethSewall]

:eek: What should we say then? :confused:
Applause for the forum!! :thumbs_up

[NNoah3]

It's the third time that the record is beaten in this year!
The first time was in Feb. 25th (I think :goof: ) with 580 users.
The second was in March 10th with 586 users.
WOWWWWWWW :banana: :banana: :banana:

[Pensive]

Hurray again!

A new record of 1136 has been set up but what astonishes me is no addition in members. Most users are guests.

[Jay]

No addition? There has been addicion in members, just not much in the active (ie posting) ones.

[amuse]

mebbe some members ain't signed in and be...lurking...

[Psycheinaboat]

I do not have time to post like I used to, but I still pop in to read a bit when I can. I love this forum, and enjoy many of the members here. I like you all more than you know!

[Pensive]

No addition? There has been addicion in members, just not much in the active (ie posting) ones.

What use is to be a member when you do not post? Well, I am glad that how things on the forum are going but what I mean is that it is a kind of surprising to see the guests number. When I was very new, there were only online fifty users sometimes and once or twice, there were thirty or forty and the number of members of them was five or six usually. But now guests are so very much. :D

[Pensive]

Hi Psycheinaboat, I am glad to find out that you visit the forum!

[Nightshade]

and I missed the record AGAIN:(

[Pensive]

Last time, I missed the record but this time, I didn't.

Night cheerup, there is always a tomorrow. You might not miss the record next time!
