I don’t think the world is poorer for the loss of my words, but I do miss many of the replies I got. And all those thread hijacks with Genseric, and the 42nd post party… alas.
There have been a few times when I’ve spent hours or days working on some code, then lost it all. Every time, the rewritten code was much better than the first try. Hope the same is true here.
Okay, I’m posting to find out, too. I was this close to 1K when the board went down. I think I had 985. Based on my obscene posting rate, I probably lost 300-400.
All I know is that I was closing in on 4000 total posts. I’m not sure exactly how close I was, though.
What sucks is not the count, but the content.
On Dec. 7th, I was still in California. There were 4 seperate “Goodbye Jack Dopefest” in that time, as well as some other good stuff. Kind of sucks really.
When I got to checking… I guess I did lose about 150 or so.
I don’t think I have ever started a thread that was so popular… what a suprise.
I am so glad to be back here. It appears that ALOT of people never registered or posted much on the temp board. Already there is much more activity here than I saw over there.
As I said in a thread in ATMB, I was at 170 and had the board not crashed, I would probably have been past 200 by now. When the board came back I was back to 130. And as I’m not a particularly prolific poster it’ll probably take a fair old while to get back where I was cry!!
