Hi FME'ers,

You might have noticed I've been a bit slack about awarding site badges recently. Apologies for that, but I'm concentrating on the community more now (lot's of exciting things to come) and so here are some badge awards.

100,000th Post

Yes, it's a big one! We officially reached 100,000 posts to the community sometime earlier today. The person who made that post.... @tono with a question on writing charts in Excel (look at the ID number in the URL).

Tono (whose profile page tells me is Antonio from Trondheim, Norway) wins the prestigious 100K badge on the site, the only person who ever has, or ever will, win this award.

Congratulations. I'm also checking with our marketing team to see if we can send you a choice and rare item of treasure from our swag cupboard.

And speaking of treasure...

Talk Like a Pirate Day

Happy FME'ing,

You shouldn't be jealous Siggy, you won the social award on FME PS in June didn't you? And if you keep it up, you might reach 1000 posts by the end of 2019, that must be worthy an award, eh?

Now I work from home, I want to see a picture too! I've passed on Tono's contact details to our marketing team who are sending something out. It'll just be something small, but hopefully fairly unique. I am also working on a future swag item for community rewards that will be awesome, if I can get it up and running. Another thing to watch out for in the future...
