And me: Member Id: 24625
Total Posts: 39,281
Posts Per Day: 7.89
And when I go to one day of work per week next week I can get my posts per day up to something reasonable.
For now = goes off and sulks.
Agreed. Since they won’t let me adorn myself with T-shirts covered in Slug’s illustrations, or drink from a mug emblazoned with the motto, or otherwise spend my ill-gotten lucre on Official Straight Dope merchandize, the membership will have to suffice.
Didn’t realize there was a separate thread for this.
Well, you could try posting something that isn’t stupid. It will still count;)
At my blistering pace of 55 posts/year - I’ll cross the threshold in 2516!
True. I’m sure there’s lots of people I missed. Here’s an addendum of members just from this thread:

Then there’s the ongoing ftg saga: member number 12660, current posts 12629…
Hey, I make the cut:
Member number: 8564
Posts: 12289 (not including this one).
Please refer to me as “Senior member El_Kabong” from now on.
I’m just a lowly guest these days, but my number is 7,603 and I have 13,158 posts, including this one.
Slackers.
Regards,
Member 7912
As member 539 with 1475 posts…now!
… I’m in this “club” more by virtue of a low member number than a high post count.
By posting this today you have more than quadrupled your average daily post rate (of 0.24 / day).
Stop posting! 
member #173
Posts (including this one): 172
10 posts per year is good right?
Looks like you’re going to be in a race with ftg for first to move from the close list to the main one. That’s what we need, some excitement in this thread.
Then again, let’s skip the race. Don’t want to give you the fantods…
I’m #1,933 with 3,227 posts.
I’m only a couple thousand away. I could do that in a year!
I’m on “The Shit List”.
But only if I really try!
We have a milestone of sorts: ftg has posted enough to join the Club. Congratulations!
So I’m going to post the entire list, but not just because of that. There’s also a number of additions, including some who did not post to this thread. Current count of Club members is 156.

46809 59,423 Elendil's Heir
I was hoping to add someone who’s joined the message board more recently than Elendil’s Heir but have not come across anyone. He joined in 2004, only 5 years after the message board got started. There are several members who’ve been fairly prolific posters among those with higher member numbers, but I haven’t found any with more than 40K posts. Some that have over 30K are Whynot, Nava, Der Trihs, Siam Sam, Tripolar, and the abovementioned Prof. Pepperwinkle. All of them are at least 15K posts from being in the Club, so they don’t even qualify for the Close list.
Speaking of the Close list, here it is. Note: except for a couple fairly close members, I haven’t rechecked any of the post counts below.

Dude, you have Too Much Time on Your Hands.
You should speak to a Man of the Cloth, or your Physician.
:dubious:
I swear, I must be as blind as a bat, because I still can’t find my member number. Grrrrr.
