Gee, that sucks. Then again, I was out of the country (Costa Rica) for two weeks…could that be it?

I would have had a much higher rank had I been here… _sigh_

And to think, I _never_ even padded my post count…much.  
Damn, If I hadn’t been gone this last week, I’m sure I could’ve got my PPD up a hundredth of a point or so…Damn!

Much better. A couple of gorgeous babes like us, I’m sure we could find tons of guys willing to write us smarmy love letters.

I notice that Bill is just a regular old member, not an admin or anything. Is there some cache of data about us that we can access? I’d be much interested.

And that list needs to be updated anyway, the info for me is WAAAAAAAY off.

**Regular**? You apparently have not been made aware of my super powers. Someone please fill my friend Stoid in.

Actually, there was a brief window there where this info was available on the board to anyone who didn’t mind spending (wasting?) a couple of hours processing it, someone such as your humble poster.

Unfortunately, the data is no longer available for security reasons; it enabled evil-doers to spam the community. I for one support it’s removal, but am saddened by the loss of this list.

Maybe if we ask one of the admins or moderators nicely they’ll open up the member function just long enough to make an updated list.

I’ll third the motion! I must have redeemed myself from the puny 127 posts I was rated on before! (#227 post/day & #716 total posts) I demand a recount or I’ll take this to the Supreme Court! I must of left some hanging chads somewhere.

Yeah . . . I’d like to know that I’m both the most active poster and not as low on the total post list as I used to be.

I can deal with the fact that I have not made a list in any of the popularity contest threads, but to be excluded from a purely statistical one is just too much. Oh well such is life.

Happy holidays,

You people simply need to post more often.

I can’t believe that I made that list, and at 166 no less! I haven’t even been around much lately, just a lurker with no time to post!

Get to it people! 😉

</div>

I was searching to see what I’d posted to lately, to see if I got any comments, and THIS was near the top of the list.

As I recall, the list didn’t show emails or web pages anyway.

It was closed down mainly as a resource guzzler.

But maybe they could turn it back on for a few hours and somebody get fresh data.

I’m afraid my own stats would suffer, however, as some people here have really gone to town as I’ve slowed a bit.

I can already tell you who the most per day since signing on would be…

Nymysys

And possibly by a looong way…

</div>

I missed the original thread completely! Of course, that’s easy to do if one doesn’t check MPSIMS every three hours. 😉

Lessee, as of 7/3/00 I was 36th in total post count, and 119th in posts per day. I know my posts-per-day average has gone down slightly since then, so I’ve probably dropped on both lists. Now if you added in my 900+ posts on Fathom…😃

It _would_ be fun to see what the current stats were!

Well I reckon that **Nmysys** has a rival.

**Iampunha** is at it day a night and also on the #Straightdope IRC line too, does this person ever do anything else at all or maybe he’s a Straightdope board bot 😃
