Title: Happy 5th Birthday to us on OER
Post by: mightytiges on May 07, 2009, 09:46:04 PM
Believe it or not it was on this day 5 years ago that a little site and forum called OER was unleashed on a unsuspecting public lol. Time flies when you're having fun following the trials and tribulations of the RFC  ;D.

Anyway I just wanted to thank everyone for sharing their opinions on our beloved Tiges in good and not so good times plus the many friendly PMs and emails of support over the past 5 years  :cheers. 

And last but not least a special big thanks to partner in crime WP  :bow  :clapping  :thumbsup. Look what you started  ;D.

Wow! 5 years? A great site that just keeps getting better! Its great to be able to laugh/cry/scream and cheer with fellow Richmond supporters.
It may be "tense" at times but its certainly never dull.
Well done everyone :clapping :cheers :gotigers

Congratulations boys :clapping I just love OER

 Im relatively new to this forum and only stumbled accross OER when the excitment of the possible signing of Ben Cousins left me searching the internet for all things Richmond.Perth can be a lonely place for a tiger fan and I cherish the opportunity to discuss Richmond with all the other hardcore supporters.I even enjoy reading the posts of our more colourful members conducting their own "Civil War".

OER has become part of my daily routine....provides me with all the latest news and gives me something to do when my wife is watching reality tv.

Thank you MT & WP

Well done to everyone involved.  It's a good site that I enjoy visiting for the information, debates and laughs.  And if it's ok MT, if you can just 'hold' my beers until my next trip down - that would be great.  Cheers!

Time or lack of it sadly. The site needs an upgrade. Even a new banner as those pics of Browny, Cogs and Richo are from 2004.

Thanks for all the kind words everyone  :)  :cheers

Great forum that is also well run, I can't believe that I have been posting on OER for half of it's life.

I have posted under various names on all of the forums and this one is the best IMHO.

Well done WP and MT.
