    Snowboard Kids World is 10 years old today (September 2nd). Happy Birthday to us!

    Here are some fun facts about the last 10 years:
    • The first ever post, an appeal for staff members, was made on September 2nd 2004. It's not particularly interesting, but here is an (edited) snapshot.
    • The most posts ever made in one day was 191 on November 6th, 2005
    • Unsurprisingly, the Countdown from 9,999 thread has the highest number of replies of any thread on the forums with over 1500, although Veertje's fan-art request thread has the most views with over 20000! Linda's now archived "Ask Ms. Maltinie" thread also deserves a special mention for it's popularity from 2006-2007.
    • The forums have had three different looks over the years. Nothing seems to have survived from the original theme, but archive.org shows the old angsty SBKDS theme
    That all said, statistics alone don't really do justice to all the enthusiasm and kindness our members have shown over the years. Thank you all for your part in it.

    The heyday of the SBK community may be behind us, but Snow Town is always open if you ever feel like dropping by.

      Agreed entirely, BobTheFish.

      I'm still here checking the forums silently day by day, just been quiet with a lot of people moving into their now-older lifestyles. The game still holds a strong place in our hearts here, and it never will truly go away.

      It's good to see that we keep coming back here time and time again to check on each other, and hold out hope.

          Hello everyone,
          It's very nice to know that this community is already eleven years old!! Congratulations!
          When you guys started it, I didn't even know the game. I only started playing it in 2008 :bradlaugh:
          Anyways, I'm very happy to know this community! I always get happy when I meet other SBK fans! :pameladitzy:
