You would be absolutely correct. The announcement of a new blade only for members and personalized for JYD's has a flood of new blood. Some of which are pretty nice folks and I hope they stick around.
I'm sure a few signed up and got JYD and will rarely visit again. I do think we picked up a few good folks though. i have to say i was not happy at first. but i was around some of the guys on the jyd runs and i have to say there are some awesome new guys here. so yeah they are counting their posts. but i did at first also. MB said it well. to some of the great new guys. keep countin and posting. and to my fellow jyd please support them. once they make jyd they arnt only about their post counts and they are brothers. long live the brotherhood of the yard
Any day I'm above the grass and I'm not a zombie is a good day! JYD#138

Hey I just made JYD. I almost pulled the trigger on a Dogfather on the bladforums exchange but Got a Ratweiler to go with my Rat Daddy instead. Then I messed up on my elail to get some Elmax. I origionally wanted 3 of the 460 and 3 of the 340.. Then I changed my mind to 2 of each size. Then I wanted one Kill devil axe and 2 of each. Then I wanted just 2 Kill devils. And thats where I sat and that was the email I had prepared. Then I changred my mind again was going to go 2 axes and 2 of each size elmax. U nfortunately in the middle of making the email the ggogogogogo was posted so now.... Ill be gettin 2 axes.
Oh well. I figured what better first scrapyard than one available only to forum members and the added bonus of a JYD coin and that number being etched onto the blade will make my first Scrapyard an EPIC one.
Great guys on here so far.
I look forward to shootin the sheit witchas
Oh and heres what I think the FDM will be:
FDM
Franken-Dog Mauler
14 inch blade. 5 inch handle. .20 thick. Blade height will be thin at the ricasso / handle area and taper out to 3 inches or so towards the tip.
Like a scimitar.
Ill take 2 one with my JYD number and one sterile for my covert ops.
BRING IT....
That is all.
JYD # 156. Looking forward to the FDM

I still think it's a 12" bladed cousin of the B-11, and remember when someone put a DogFather style handle on a B-11? Just about everybody loved it, including me! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Yes, the FDM has caused a stir... Made some folks come out and participate more, got some of the lurkers in, and some just went for it to get a numbered FDM...

I am one of the new crowd. However, I have been lurking around here for over a year. I never joined because I was an active member of other forums. But, in the last month or so I was seeing many member of this forum joining one of the other forums I am a part of so I finally decided to join up over here.
There are quite a few friendly faces here. And guys that I have been talking to for quite a while. I think this makes it easy to be able to join right in and hopefully be a part of the community.
This is a very active forum with many members, and lots of different topics of discussion. Hopefully I can contribute and meet a few more good people along the way.

Me... I'm on the 10 year plan. When I get there I get there. Lol! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> I think my run was the last 100-200 posts...that was hard for me! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> The Yard is a great place and I hope all the new members make + contributions to the threads, forum and community. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

The high post counts, just for the sake of reaching JYD status can be a little annoying to wade through. But I did some of that myself during my final run, so no problem here. But it is more enjoyable when we're having a good conversation. Best when we share our experiences and post some pictures. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
