for those of us who lost 25% or more of our post count

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

I’m a bit bummed about losing all those posts after Dec 7th because they made up a significant chunk of my overall post count. I was up to 270 or so and found my count to be just under 190 when I returned to the boards this week.

If you had a similar experience let’s get together in this thread and work on replacing some of those lost posts. I’ve never been one to post in post-boosting threads, but this is different because we lost posts and are merely trying to regain our doper dignity (you can use your own excuse if that one doesn’t work for you).

Let’s play some kind of game. Any game will do.

How about… 20 Questions!

Naaa…

Truth or dare?:wink:

(I lost nearly 400 posts, which tells you how much work my employer gets out of me since I found the Dope.)

4

About 530.

5

I had just broken 200, and lost 90.

6

I don’t remember how many I lost, but I’m pretty sure I was averaging over 1 post per day.

Grr. Know how hard it is to bring that back up?

I’ve found that playing the Movie Chain Link Game has helped immensely.

I was around 60. Now I’m down to about 30-35.

I lost half my posts, but some people lost a lot more than I did.

Post count is a sign of laziness as far as I’m concerned. I’m glad I get to fool myself some now. The only thing I am partially upset about is I lost all of my posts about how Cecil Adams is not the name of a real writer (summary) and how the clique and some moderators are reclining containers of fertilizer for trying to be cute about maybe he does exist, etc. on a message board dedicated to fighting ignorance. In fact, I’m so vain and self-centered, I think the whole supposed crash was just an excuse to get rid of my posts on the subjects. And I do love Carly’s song about me. Ya know, Mick Jagger does back ups on it. :smiley:

OG sort rubbish!

I think OG needs a theology.

10

I lost 400-500. I was over 600 when the board crashed and was down to 180-something when it came back. Wahh.

11

I was in the 150s before the board crashed. When it came back up my first post registered at number 39.

12

I had just gone over 100. I had to re-register and start anew. Nuts.

As for games, ummmm…how about limericks? “There once was a man named Orange…”:smiley:

13

I had 95, closing in on triple digits at last, back to 70.

" … who got a .300 Magnum with more range"

Ow! Ouch! Stop it!

14

I don’t remember exactly how many I had before the Exodus. I was at about 470 or so when we got back. I think I was in the 600-650 range. So I guess I lost just about 25%. w00t.

15

I lost about 900. I was just about to break the damn 1000. Well guess I’ll head back to the ol posting board.

16

Pah! Merely scratched, the lot of you!

I lost about 1000 posts.

17

I’m not as prolific a poster. I went from 190 to 110, not a big change but it was over 40% of my total posts.

Doing my best to make it up.

18

Funny thing is, I remember being somewhere around 200-220 and when we came back I was at a massive 250. Maybe I have some of the missing posts! I’ll look in the refrigerator.

19

I lost everything. Only about 120 posts, but I felt kinda special having broken into the triple digits. Oh, well, I have next week off of work and school, I’m sure it’ll be growing expontentially then. :slight_smile:

Hey! I thought there was a game going on here.

Anyone?

Hmmmm…I wonder if I can stay in double digits for another year.
