Sim Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Hello all. On behalf of the BalletcoForum Committee I'm delighted to announce that we have just registered our 1000th member! We are so pleased to have reached this milestone in just over a year, and we would like to thank all of you for continuing to make this forum so vibrant and interesting. I would also like to extend a special thanks to John Mallinson, who does such a wonderful job in keeping spammers from registering and cluttering the Forum. Here's to the next 1000! Best wishes, Simonetta Dixon Chair BalletcoForum Committee 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Mallinson Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 It is amazing how many dance enthusiasts there seem to be in the Ukraine and China with user names such as emuggisomieri or pytczswjvb. A pity we can't accommodate the 100 or so such applicants what we receive each day. Would get another 1,000 members in no time at all! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisa O`Brien Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 (edited) I noticed yesterday on the discussion on RBS Auditions that over 20,000 views had taken place ! Obviously I know that doesn`t mean 20,000 separate individuals because many people,like myself,come onto the forum usually twice a day,every day. However,I`m sure that amount of views if translated into members,would come to a lot more than 1,000.!! But that many members after just 12 months is a fantastic achievement. Thank you to everyone who makes it so. Edited February 10, 2013 by thequays 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ann Williams Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 As one of BalletcoForum's - and its predecessor, Balletco's - oldest members (in both senses, unfortunately), I congratulate the committee, administrators and moderators on the disciplined, elegant and informative young offspring they have formed - well done to all of you! I particularly appreciate the daily links page, so promptly put together by John Mallinson, Ian Macmillan and Bruce Marriott (nothing much gets past them, does it?), and also the thoughtful way that the occasional forum wrongdoer is put right! This is not to mention the many posters too, who keep the ball pinging high over the discussion net with some powerful rallying. So - one way or another - perhaps we can all congratulate ourselves! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boomer Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Congratulations!! As a new member, and recent balletomane, I need to thank you for opening a window to a world I have known little of and would never learn about without folks like you and all the wonderful YouTube ballet videos! Best wishes for days to come! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheila Beelam Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Thank you all for the time spent maintaining this site. Time is priceless and as a mother, wife, running two businesses, home to 3 dogs, 3 cats and I'm sure I've forgotten somebody or something, I should know!!! But I worry that sometimes doing ballet comes before all of the above!! Thank you. Sx 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
