Newbie sets inadvertant record?

As you can see, my number of posts have barely reached double figures. All of them have been in the past two days. However, as you can also see, I have been a SDMB member since July 1999.

Now I have various excuses for not posting sooner (home computer crash, college computers didn’t support keyboards properly, cost of UK connection fees way too high, wanted to get the feel of the message board, etc. etc. etc.) but I’ve been wondering something. Is the approximately 13 months between registering and posting a first message a record for this group?

My guess would be YES, that’s a definate record. Welcome aboard, Duke!

I come close. But I did make two posts just after registering, so I guess I don’t qualify. :slight_smile:

I don’t know. I went many, MANY months between registration and first post. Mostly because I was still involved over at alt.fan.cecil-adams and had only registered for the boards as an afterthought because I was at the site reading the column.

But I’m cured now, those a.f.c-a people are luzers (or at least that is what I have now been trained to believe).
