When **Coldfire** hits 10,000 posts, will he be the 2nd or 3rd Doper to do this? [sub]Coldy currently has around 9985[/sub] **Handy** passed this milestone nearly a year ago, has anybody done so since then? 😕 ---

2nd. **Guinistasia** will be the 3rd, I believe. ---

a) Only if **Flamsterette\_X** doesn’t get there first or, more seriously; b) Isn’t **tracer** up there too? ---

Sorry, **tavalla** and **World Eater** : there is no way I will get to 10,000 posts before (for example) **tracer** , **Guinastasia** , or **Coldfire**. Thanks for thinking of me, though! 🙂 F\_X ---

I imagine I could extrapolate it from your posts per day, but that would give me a headache. Suffice to say _you_ will get there before I do, and lets leave it at that. 😉 ---

Believe me, that would give me a headache, too. Math and I do not generally get along. Let’s just leave it at that, shall we? 😉 F\_X ---

When **Coldfire** gets his 10,000th, do you think he will crown himself ‘King of the SDMB’ for a day? Or has he aldeady? ---

Hey, I’ll be hitting triple digits here soon. At my feverish post rate of less than half a post a day, I might be there by next month. :rolleyes: I’m at 95 or so at the time of posting. ---

I was posting like a school girl on crack before the big crash of 2002. After being away for so long though I came back somewhat sheepish and at the rate I’m going now I doubt I’ll ever reach 2,000, much less 10,000. It’s funny though, I have no idea what my post count is now, the only time I ever paid attention to it at all was when I was coming up on 100. When I first started lurking here, long before I ever registered, I was completely :eek:'ed at people that had post counts over 300. So, ummm, in conclusion, I have absolutely nothing to add to this thread. So long, suckers! 🆒 ---

I just noticed that **Coldfire** has been posting around this morning and is at about 9996… ---

Maybe I’ll pull a “handy” and stop at 9999 for about three weeks. ---

“Maybe I’ll pull a “handy” and stop at 9999 for about three weeks.” That was a lot of fun, threw off all the bets on when I would reach 10,000. ---

I was looking forward to my 100th post as a distraction from my otherwise mundane and meaningless life, but it has been overshadowed by you 5-figurers. I shall throw my own party in my honour then. _Raises keyboard and waves to crowd in poncy cricket type way_ egg [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/10-000-posts/120365.md?page=2)
