Well, here it is. I’m a four-digit poster, and I’ve managed to do it without developing any discernible persona (which, incidentally, fits me to a T in real life, too!)

After 1000 posts, I feel it’s time to invite some commentary from the teeming millions as to how I could improve the next thousand. (“Get the hell off the boards!” is a perfectly valid, if trite, option.)

I’m gonna go bake a cake now!

_How to improve your posting style, 101_

Have your next post party in MPSIMS. There you’ll find the real party animals. They might bring beer and nekkid wimmins to the bash too…

Congrats!

I heard there were nekkid wimmins here, but I guess I’m just early.

- opens can of beer

- takes the big, cozy armchair

Congrats, RickJ.

I’m sorry, but IMHO is not zoned for Post Parties.  
We _have_ reserved a space for your party over in MPSIMS, however. Just show the receptionist your hand stamp from _this_ party, and she’ll let you right in.

Thank you.
