Watch out! **handy** with your average at 10.02 posts per day, **NoClueBoy** is closing the gap by more than 3 posts per day.  
However, you’ve proven you have stamina and he’s just out of the blocks. 😃

**100** 😛

Be careful, I may just pinch you as I pass by. And I ain’t say’n where, 'cause this ain’t the proper forum for that. 😉  
P.S. to Mods… we’re not stalking each other, we just hang out in the same threads. Serendipity I guess.

The thing that scares me is, I do post a lot, but I try to make sure that my posts are either humorous or meaningful – occasionally both.

NCB has gotten to 16.7% of what I’ve accumulated in over three years in a mere three months – and loaded his with as much humor and meaning as I ever did! How long before he catches me?

That’s scary! :eek:

I think **NoClueBoy** may have surpassed my early posting rate. I’m not sure, though. I remember surpassing 1000 in six weeks, but I don’t think I was at 1142 posts!

WOW! And I thought I posted a lot. I spend atleast 4 hours here throughout different times…or sometimes just an hour or a few minutes, so in a day I only post 50 messeges a day.

I enjoy your stuff, too, **Polycarp**.

To me, post counts are meaningless. If I see something that interests me, I’ll join in the conversation.

FTR, I do lurk, just count how many things I _don’t_ say. 😃

Hi, **fauxpas**!

OK, this is rapidly degenerating into something that belongs in MPSIMS. Let’s keep this one on track, it’s about post counts.

You wanna have a pissing contest or “you show me mine, I’ll show you yours,” start a new thread in MPSIMS.

Sorry, **CKDH** , I thought I was keeping it on track. 😕

Like I was saying, what’s so important about post counts anyways? There are no prizes involved. And a high count doesn’t mean wisdom, nor should a low count.

So, what is the fascination? Sure, it’s mildly interesting. But, just like watching your car’s odometer roll over, you take note of it, then drive on.

Oh well…

Um, **C K** , ftr, why do we have a post count?
