Ok, so I am a relative newbie, but this place is somewhat addictive. And in my browsing around I have noticed that some names appear rather frequently on the boards. So I get to ask myself, who are the most serious addicts? (Not saying that’s a bad thing mind you.) Most prolific poster I have found so far is [**Zeldar**](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/member.php?action=getinfo&userid=36386), currently sitting around eighteen posts per day on average. Is there anyone who can beat that? or is **Z** the winner? ---

They say **handy** has more posts than anyone else, but I’ve only rarely seen one of his posts. **Q.E.D** posts a lot though. Neat guy. **iampunha** I’ve seen a lot too. I bet I could take him in a fight… if I stabbed him in the eye with the sharp stick hidden behind my back disguised as a present first. ---

I got that high average a while back with some games that made for lots of posts in a fairly short time. There are days when I don’t post at all, as well as days I don’t even check in. I doubt you’d learn much by reading more than a few of my posts. ---

I used to average, actually, more than 20 ppd. But it’s very hard to be productive in any sense if you post 20 times a day. BTW, **Blackeyes** , since I don’t like gifts, you wouldn’t be able to draw me off guard:D ---

And I used to have a higher average than 'punha! Soon as I realized that I stopped posting as much. ---

I was quite shocked to see my post count exceed 1,000. And now look what’s happened! **Q.E.D.** has to be the fastest from zero to a high count of anyone else I’ve seen since I’ve been on the boards. ---

By ‘prolific’, do you mean just a lot of posts, or a lot of posts with actual content? Because we’ve got a lot of drive-by posters with very high post counts and little actual value therein. ---

Just a drive-by post to increase my post count. Disregard. ---
