WaitingTooLong with 3 posts, last post on the day they registered.
I just looked 10 on each side of me. I have two people who were banned the same day and a couple of lurkers and the rest never did anything. What a quite block I live on. I guess I can turn up the music!
So she did register! prettybymistake is a friend of mine and I pointed her in the direction of the boards and I was mildly disappointed when she never posted. Take it from me she’s a big flighty but nice.
As soon as I post this I’ll check on my neighbors.
So my neighbor to the south (19587) is happyheathen and apparently he has been banned. Guess he threw one to many parties at his house…He left us with a post count totaling 2395.
My neighbor to the north (19589) is none other than Finnie the Pooh with a whopping post count of 65 and his/her last post was just two days ago.
Poster #19893, with a post count of 1115 (2.64 posts per day). I registered 03-11-2002 along with 139 others - must have been the day the boards came back online. I would guess that quite a few of us are posters who were lost in the WoMC.
Poster #19892 is monstro, with a post count of 1108 (2.63 posts per day).
Poster #19894 is Wrong Haircut, who has never posted.
I have Colour Wolf userid 19772 (I want his number) with a total of 34 posts, but nothing since last October. On the other side is Testy32, userid 18774 with a total of 4 posts. The only thread this person started was locked down too.
Great idea for a thread, JohnBckWLD. It looks like both of my neighbors are silent though. Google reveals that my member ID is the same as an escutcheon for a wall-mount bath faucet, a petition entitled Sexual Abuse Within the Ministerial Relationship and Sexual Harassment Within the UM Church, a photo of a wetland ecology canoe trip, and (coolest of all) an SGI IRIX df buffer overflow in directory argument. How many people have an ID that may allow local users to gain root privileges on unpatched systems?
I’ll step out a couple of neighbors in each direction.
#2643 - HeyHomie with 2116 posts, most recently 45 minutes ago. #2644 - Says it is an invalid link. Someone seems to have disappeared in a board hiccup. #2645 - Seelie. 5 posts, with the last one happening on 9-24-1999, one day after registering. For all you single guys out there, she was located in Placentia and had interests in darkness, myth, school, and games. #2646 - Me #2647 - Johnny J. No posts for the mystery man from Chicago #2648 - bosley. No posts
South ThreeLeggedBob who only has 158 posts or 0.16 posts per day but his last post was on 4/23/03 so he just has much more of a life than me I guess. #8952
Just before: Jynx. Never, ever posted.
Just after: badsign. 5. Last post 05/11/2001
Then there’s me, my three year anniversary of joining is on Saturday of this week. So far 3337 posts. I guess I got all of the posty-goodness that day.
Well, I’m from one of the newer neighborhoods points to post count so I wasn’t expecting much…no 1000-count posters or anything.
Most around me - 27030 - have never posted, or posted just a few times and listed no information. The more interesting ones:
[ul]
[li]Far up the north block, at 27021, there’s wolfsun, who joined the day before me, but has only spoken up once, and that was just this past March. S/he must stay inside a lot and just watch through the window.[/li][li]Next door to wolfsun at 27022 is mohdowais, who only posted twice and in the same week we joined…but s/he’s from the U.A.E., which would make that neighbor cool if s/he was still around.[/li][li]Two doors down from me at 27028 is Abm9, who is a retired educator of history and social science in Chicago. Went into great detail in the profile only to post 6 times in a week’s span.[/li][li]Yours truly. #27030, still pretty new, with a post count of 191 and an average of 1.14/day (which makes me appear as if I have nothing to do…)[/li][li]On the south side at 27034, a guy (?) named TerryW, who has the highest besides me in the two-block span…at 26. That’s pretty sad.[/li][li]And possibly the most curious story of all…27040, a user named Dad Gumm, who posted once and was promptly banned. There’s no link. I wonder what he said…[/li][/ul]
Great thread idea, btw. I just successfully killed fifteen minutes.
WOW - ya’ just never know who your neighbors are. To the north was skyre who never posted, but the neighbor to the south, was moc.liamtoh who after 119 posts was BANNED…hmm with this crazy crew, it makes me wonder what you have to do to be BANNED! Yikes, I always pick a bad neighborhood.
