3.99. I think I took a bit of a hiatus at some point in college, but even if I didn’t, almost 24 thousand posts in 16 years would have brought the average up to (lets see, if I made another 4 posts over two years) 5.3. Call it 4.5, I don’t remember how long the hiatus was or how much I posted during that time. Besides, it takes a long time to change an average with numbers like that.

For my first 10 years here I averaged over 10 per day.

I need a life.

11.91. I play in Thread Games a lot, and that means a lot of short and quick posts. Mainly lately I’ve been in the trivia thread game.

I have gone through phases where I haven’t posted much. Though moderating brings the count up.

At one point though, I actually hit 2000+ posts in [three short months](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=163011) way back when.

0.26 and rising. I joined in 2004, posted a couple of times and promptly forgot that I was a member and went on to other things. Re-discovered the site about 4-5 months ago and have been working to make up for lost time.

1.0 or bust!!

2.26 but there have been long periods of time when I just lurked. It’s only the past 3-4 years that I have been what I would consider an active poster.
