I feel like its a pretty big step for me here, considering how much lurking I do vs posting. I’m not very good at arguing, and what little arguing that I’ve done here has gotten ripped apart by posters who are far better than I at disseminating information. Still, its a really great forum. There isn’t any other forum that I can go to with the same mix of serious information and good humor. Whether its glancing over my shoulder for errant blimps, or learning how to exorcise ignorance out of daemonic plagarist-monsters, I know I have an online community that I can go to that is diverse enough to never feel out of place. 🙂 ---

\ Congrats on 1,000 posts! Say, didn’t you have some trouble with an imposter a while back? ---

Yeah I sure did. Was a hair’s breadth from getting banned, too. Sure was a close call! :eek: Look out for dopplegangers! ---

Congrats, Incubus. Seems like my 1000th post was just yesterday. Actually, it was about a week ago. 😉 ---

Congratulations Incubus I’m not that far behind you with my massive 67 posts 🙂 Don’t worry about being ripped apart by other posters. A well thought out arguement is good to have but it takes all sorts to make a board interesting. ---

Congratulations! _scatters confetti_ Out of interest, if you hadn’t been… impostered? Is that a word? Anyway, if that hadn’t happened, how much longer would it have taken you to reach this particular milestone? At my current rate of posting, I won’t achieve what you have achieved for another two years. And I can’t seem to spell “achieve.” ---

My imposter made around a dozen or so posts. So it would have been the difference of about a day and a half. I’m off school now, so I have more free time to browse the boards and ask unusual questions/give feedback to threads I can relate to/etc ---

Congratulations. I hereby promote you from ‘newbie’ to ‘sophomore’. You’ll be happy to know getting to quadruple-digit posts means you no longer have to mow the lawns of the cabal[sup]TM[/sup] members. Sadly, until 2000 posts you do have to wash our cars every two weeks. Here’s a bucket and sponge. Get to work. ---
