When Greg changed the members list awhile ago to show only members with 500 posts (I just looked and it appears he changed it back), I thought, hmm... how close am I to that magic number, and it turned out (at that time) I had quite a few to go to break 500. I did it this morning, and it took me about 2.5 years. I guess that doesn't make me a post whore, right ?

Posts Per Day: 0.63

Rhody... :blushing:

P.S. Make that a little over two years... I lurked for quite awhile too, and lurkers can't be contributors... it's early and I am not quite awake...

Congrats! You're definitely not a post whore, makes my 6.0 posts per day seem a little obsessive...

I joined 8 years ago (:eek:!) and I'm still only approaching 2000 posts. This is primarily because GD posts don't count. I remember when we used to be rated along the EM spectrum based on the post-count. I think I had made it to "microwave" before that was discontinued.

I joined a year earlier than you did but have only 378 as of now. Reading some of these posts make you feel very ignorant and often you are too intimidated to post anything.

That's an awesome idea, it's a shame that it is no longer in use here.

/I would be sky blue at the time of this post.

Evo,

I know I have spent more time lately in GD and the other uncounted forums, is there any way you can run those stats for me ? If I were a betting man I would say 2000 - 2500.

Rhody... :smile:
