How can Handy have so many posts, yet I never see him?!?

Handy’s managed to amass several thousands of posts on this message board. He must make dozens upon dozens of posts in a single day. And yet… and yet… I never see him. Whether it’s one of his own threads, or as the latest poster, his name only pops up occasionally, when others with significantly lower posts counts are spotted consistently several times in an hour.

Handy, I officially declare you to be the Phantom of the SDMB. Given the rate at which you amass posts, you must be non-corporeal… well, in an Internet sense.

ALmost. I don’t read GD or the Pit, so you & David B. won’t see so many posts from me…:slight_smile:

Oh, I type way fast!

Dear God. The last time I saw Handy, he had something like 6000 posts. I think that was a couple of days ago. Now it’s over 7000?

Fast indeed.

handy’s last name is Smurf. He’s just too small to notice.

All of Handy’s posts are one line sentences typed in subscript in an obscure thread over at the ATMB forum.

It’s handy not Handy. I type fast. I also type in an obscure codec language which leaves out a lot of information. Thus, most of my posts tend to not quite make sense unless you have an IQ of at least 175 so that you can figure them out.

For example, a person might ask, “What is the speed of light when it runs through a glass of Pepsi as opposed to a glass of Coke?”

My answer: “duh”

Right. Perfectly reasonable. Mysterious, arcane posts that only confuse dolts too dimwitted to understand them.

Your self-effacing humor granted, handy, maybe you could type just a leetle bit slower and fill in a few conceptual leaps?

I think ever since Coldfire got the “mod” status, and 7000-posts-to-his-name handy got overlooked, he got pissed and went a little quiet.

The Assailant, heh. I don’t want to be moderator. I’ve been a mod on other boards before. It’s really not all that much fun. Plus having such a high & mighty position I would think it unethical to date any of the members. :slight_smile: I don’t know how Tuba feels about that one :slight_smile:

TVeblen, yes for a few months now I have tried to add more information. Bear in mind that being deaf, I get a whole lot LESS information myself. I tend to think that the world is based on this concept of just give a little data, people can figure out the rest.

As a post lingual deafened adult, my world becomes more visual & so I’m also struggling to interpret a more & more visual world into words, which is a major feat within itself.

It’s easy to run up your post count if you respond to every damn thread (with a monosyllabic reply) wether you have any significant knowledge of the subject matter or not.

Oh?

Now look what you’ve done! You’re jacking up his post count even more by making this post about him!

I’ve made a new goal: to get a post count higher than handy’s. Can it be done?

That may…

be possible…

if you post like this.

Your knowledge of our community is impressive! I wish everyone would lurk as long as you. But as handy said, handy’s not pissed at anyone here. Where did you get this idea?
