MUScoop is...
« on: October 23, 2009, 08:40:08 AM »
.. 3 years old today.


3267 users .. and we just passed 150,000 postings last night, too.  (140,000 of them are classified pro-Crean, anti-Crean, pro-Buzz, anti-Buzz, pro-Warrior, anti-GE, pro-Murff, anti-Murff....)

Kinda funny to read the threads from 3 years ago:

Congratulations.  I thoroughly enjoy this site.

I see that it took you two days to register back in 2006.  Typical Minnesotan, always taking your time........

I think I took some time to come up with a new moniker.. needed to make a clean break from Rivals.

.. But we were just talking about the fact that the first few months, year, were when we put a ton of effort into the site, growing it, finding articles, starting threads, recruiting people, dropping business cards at the Bradley Center, etc, etc.

Now the place runs itself, grows every day without much effort.

w00t!

I know you haven't seen anything yet, but we really do have a good-lookin' makeover in the works that should come as a slightly belated b-day present to everyone.

As a teaser, if you've liked MUCrew's wallpapers (who wouldn't?), you'll like the new look...

Thanks to all though!  A forum is only as good as it's contributors - and you guys are great!

Hay, Rican, Lens, and I spent the last hour figuring out how to hijack this thread so we can rip Crean again.  ;D


Congrats for all you do.

I was reading the old threads a bit.  I think the MUScoop user should start being active on the boards again :)

Thanks to all who host and moderate this site.  I really appreciate it.  I'll celebrate officially on Monday when it is my three-year anniversary at MUScoop.

I started following recruiting back in '99 at the old rivals recruiting site.   Took me a year to find this place(don't know why).  But thanks for a great site and all the work you put in.

Thanks for providing a home to discuss Marquette basketball (and beer).

Also, I love the Cracked Sidewalks-MUScoop collaboration.
