Happy First Birthday For Aussie Pinball !!
« on: September 24, 2009, 10:56:39 PM »

How time flies when you are having fun !

This month  marks the one year anniversary of Aussie Pinball  $#$

Technically speaking - It was the start of this month, and we should have picked up on that. Not to worry !

We have every reason to celebrate this milestone, as I believe this is the best place to "hang out", share experiences and learn something new ! Pinball has not been as exciting as it has been for MANY years, and we have all worked together to make this place "what it is today".

Special thanks to Creech - Who was responsible for setting up the "backend" of the site, and sorting out out the teething problems when we started out. He is always "quietly" looking after the running of the site, and I think we have never suffered any downtime. Of course our latest Mod - Pinnies4me - has done a great job since coming about in his role. Honestly - the three of us don't really "moderate" anything.

Sponsors keep the site running, equally the kind donations from the members - Without this - it would be difficult to have the site running at all

I would personally like to take this opportunity to thank all the members that have made this site what it is today.  !#%
I've made MANY new friends and learnt a lot form other pinheads in the last 12 months. There are many great characters on this site that make the site so enjoyable to login to every couple of hours..

Pinball is alive and well -  ^^^

Well done Nino and Creech... the balls definately rolling...

well done guys

gone so quick

so much has gone on in the last 12 months   the last 6 months  even
but AP  has seen it all and will continue to grow
its has been the place to be and if you are into pinball  its be here or MISS OUT
many news stories have been listed here
Sydney expo
Coconut Island   the first pin made in OZ that i know of
Stern new titles
and many other deals

well done all involved  keep up the good work
but more so well done to all the members as this site is only as good as its members
no matter what sponsors the site has , AP is and always has been for its members  and I for one hope it stays that way
its a members forum and great place to chat and help each other out , no fighting no BS no family insults no crap and its simple as that NO crap here

mark , sue and family   ( and Tim AKA goat boy and staff)

I remember the first few posts, and looking back a couple of times a day hoping for some activity. Now I have trouble keeping up! This place really has attracted the greatest bunch of guys (and a couple of great gals) and it's a pleasure to be part of this forum.

Congrats to all the members, those that contribute have taught me lots and I'm sure it's the same for many others. I hope some of the lurkers come forward too - we don't bite (hard) and everyone who loves pinball has a story to tell, and it's a story we all love to hear.

Congratulations to all our members who have in one short year created the best pinball forum bar none!
