Forum Announcement
« on: May 06, 2014, 10:17:44 am »
Forum members, we moderators have decided to cease acknowledging milestone postings with the exception of those reaching their first milestone of 500 posts which earns 5 stars and makes them a Hero Member.

We are all here to share, support, help and encourage members and we know we do a very good job of that.  Therefore, the number of postings is irrelevant in the scheme of things and we feel it cannot be the focus of attention.

There is no reason why you could not pm anyone who has reached a milestone but we ask that you do not do it publicly unless of course, a moderator posts first as in the case of our Hero Member status.  It is not being dropped because of lack of time from the moderators but because we need to take the focus off milestones and focus on being here to help everyone who owns a Thermomix.

We trust you will understand and accept this decision.

I ditto Jamberie's comments  It's unnecessary as the amount of posts members contribute is irrelevant as everyone's time and needs are different. We all contribute when we have time and that differs on a daily basis and its not a competition.
Thank you Cookie, Judy and CC and of course MM. You all do so much to make this the best forum ever  ;D

Agreed. You all do so much besides having to keep a track of everyone's post count.
