We've come a long way since we started in 1996, and at 18:25 BST (17:25 GMT, 19:25 CEST) today, QuakeNet passed the 100,000 concurrent user mark for the first time. Thank you to all the QuakeNet users for helping us reach this milestone.

Nicely done :) About time, just shows how far things have come. And we don\'t have to rely on warez, mp3\'s and porn to get this big :) One big mutli-national community. Quakenet deserves to be #1 for a long time yet. Well done to the opers, my helper colleagues, all the users for making Quakenet what it is.

fragp said on Wednesday 14 August 2002

That\'s just so cute. This is the outcome of alot work by the www-com, dev-com, operators and helpers. New website.. New services. Good support and a feeling of \'im welcome to this net\'. I knew the outcome would be more users, more and more people realise that Quakenet Is Doomed To Own (as flash wrote in his column).
