Look what happens when you take a seed of an idea and cover it with 7 years of manure and hot air.

Tama, you know this site first really took off when you published that photo of me in the worst-dressed mountain biker competition.
Well, at least that's how I found Vorb, anyhow...
Congrats, really. Well-earned.

Fantastico! I know you don't do this stuff for recognition, but it's great that you have been recognised by the 'mainstream' interwebby community. Well done!

I feel famous by association!
Well done, Tama. Plus, aside from the popularity of being voted best sports & rec site, VORB is also technically impressive. It's not just an out-of-the-box forum, it obviously has a lot of behind the scenes technowizardry.
