    1) Video posts instead of text?
    2) Real-time live video chatting (like a video feed at a board room meeting for instance)
    3) A wider distribution of ages posting as the current 25-35 year-old base ages and the younger posters come online?
    4) 30 Subforums to handle the 10,000 posts per day?
    5) A full-time staff of 10 people administering the site?
    6) Revenue streams that enable a highly profitable business venture?
    7) Any recognizable posters left over from today’s base?

    I think there will be an influx of robots who have haughty attitudes.

    I, for one, welcome our new robot overlords with open arms.

    And I would like to remind them that I can be useful in the rounding up of others to toil in the underground sugar caves.

    Since the world is coming to an end in 2012, I imagine it won't look like much.

    I'm not sure I would be too comfortable with this. My best posts generally are made while in the nude.

    Can you believe those Mayans. Make everyone go through the freakin hassle of Christmas shopping, only to end the world right before.

    Mental note, ask for gifts early that year.

    They'll be a thread by Manny in the hangout called "What's in your MP6000 digitized entertainment system?"

    In 20 years....

    DoD Jr. will be booting moestavern19 Jr. from chat on a regular basis

    Clutch Jr. will lay the smack down on a boastful poster at least once a year

    DaDakota Jr. will claim to have found the next diamond in the rough for the Rockets/Astros/Texans but will end up being wrong

    TJ Jr. will be posting in the D&D, but due to his father copyrighting the phrase "case closed" and threatening him with trademarket infringement, will instead sign all his posts with "AND THATS THE WAY IT IS"
