| PaGaLGuY.com turns 3!! -

I don't know what gotten into me this very day 3 years ago.. a crazy insane thought and that has given birth to this amazing community we have here. I have to admit, the last 2 years have been a rush!
We've done things I never ever could have thought possible! Say from our community service initiatives in 5 cities, PaGaLGuY.com News service  , CNBC, Indian Express, Reach across business schools, Free MoCATs .. darn..and so many things more
Along with the goods have also come the bad. The insane growth rates have alienated quite a few of our users, but then we don't reallly have a choice as to who registers..do we  . Also, what has risen is the insane amount of work I've needed to do .. and similarly our mods. Paragons of patience, each of them, almost
Its tough to remain enthused after a today day @ work, but heck ->  < has to be blamed for livening each of our lives in someway or the other.. Ok, I sense that given a chance to write anything more - I will just babble
What NEXT ?  What does the future hold for this crazy place ? Um.. if I had a say in it, we will be moving to an office very soon and will be hiring more pagalguys/pagalgals to do the bidding of his highness =>  < =
One more thing I have to ask of yee people... THINK up of a contest we can hold for a week. An online contest..  .. Lets celebrate our insanity by pitting pagals against each other

interrupts to add yet another set of thank yous and high fives and free e-booze parties (mr. green included).
hmm..online pagalpanti contest. if this was the ol' wild west and we were all sheriffs and robbers, it woulda been quite easy. though i see, it would prove to be a little difficult now 
usual insanity = spamming the board with inane posts, threads, ROT13 requests, supertione puzzles (hey! where's that thread these days), sudoku challenges, pagalpan awards (reloaded), a couple of controversies thrown in for good measure (like some stupid leaks and TV channels), coupla b-skool bashing threads (bashums!), and the usual quota of movies music, books (ebooks  ), banned members, edited posts and frayed tempers, new mods (who cant even get the junta to spell their name correctly  ), and invariably, password attempts at pagalguy's account name (read that somewhere  ).
phew !! <drips off sweat>
and you talk of NEW contests.
no offences amigo, but you are crazy
cheers | | | | | | | |

I hope you and "quite a few of our users" are not alienated in few years as the immigration and naturalisation is increasing in this Pagal Country.
As far as contest regarding PagalPanti i suspect will there be any clear winner.  Be an Authority on your National Insanity.

and you talk of NEW contests | Swell roundup there m8.....But yea, constrained by my lack of natural maturity, I am inclined to see sense and reason only in the sheriff/robber scenario....When are we having that ??
