Skydiving Forums sent me a birthday greeting, which I thought was kinda cool.

Happy Birthday Rhonda!

See... now we've sent you one as well!

We don't always agree, but it's nice to be here. Keep up the good work.

Anyone know anything more?

Nope, but I went ahead and signed up. Skydiving Forums sent me a birthday greeting, which I thought was kinda cool. Who knows what this one will do?

It'll be interesting to see just how many message boards this community can actually support without collapsing in on itself.

There's no limit to how many message boards the community will support. There are already lots of them around. DZ.COM is just the one that currently has the most registered users, but it's based on old technology. That really doesn't matter to most of the users here, but eventually, there might be "geeks who skydive" that will want to make use of features like RSS, OPML, and Blogs. Also keep in mind that the vast majority of users are "lurkers" and RSS feeds make lurking a breeze.

I wouldn't have started a new site by having so many forums though; it just makes it look empty and more difficult to get discussions going. It's always better, IMO, to start with too few forums that can be split off later as necessary.

Can anyone enlighten me as to the pro's vs con's of having two sights? I may very well be missing the obvious here and I apologise in advance if that is the case.

Pros:

Depth Perception
Facial Symmetry
Winking is easier to notice

Cons:

Contacts cost more
Impracticality of monocle fashions

I wondered how long that would take

Well, free market competition IS the American way. People are going to log on to the site they like best, or sometimes maybe both, or more. The good ones will stick around, the ones with something missing fade away. But the competition is good, it means nobody can afford to fat & sassy (that's not a PA, I hope).

If I were a pain in Sangiro's ass they way you are a pain in my ass, I'd be permanently banned for the next three lifetimes.
