Heck, Davey Bee, I was shocked to find how FEW posts CDextHavn and Nickrz have.

Where’s TubaDiva? She’s probably got you beat.

No, not quite. Tuba is more of a phantom ruler. She has about 700 posts according to the “Newton’s Apple” thread.

I have too many! You can all have some of mine. I like to share. Unless I can get something for them at [ebay.com](http://ebay.com)  
I’m working on doing my first intelligent post, bear with me.

Can I borrow some of my posts to other bulitin boards to make this count higher.

Please?

Handy, I think you have the second most I’ve seen – even beating Satan. I don’t hang out here in MPSIMS much, so I just assumed that there were mundane and pointless posters who had me beat easily. So far I haven’t seen 'em, though.

I feel so, so, so, _inferior_! It’s not that I never am at the board, I just never have anything to say that hasn’t already been said! Oh well! I guess being a newbie has it’s perks, nobody has any bones to pick with you in the pit. 😉

Hey Dave, it may be Mundane and Pointless in here, but we don’t tend to get theatre.

That’s all right. The “Phadeus Sock Puppett Revue” didn’t get all that many good reviews, anyway.

Ha ha! There’s 69 posts to this thread! :::snicker snicker::: (commence junior high-like giggling)

Oh, wait. With this post, it’s 70 now. Whoops.

Ah well. At least it’s one more post for me.

Hmm…excuse me? I’ll admit, this is only post number #441, but I have been on the SDMB since December of 1997, when it was still on A-oh well. Can you honestly say that you know who Mr. Ruda Duda is, because I can. 🙂

David B, yes, I see you have more than anyone else. But I thought it has to do with posting lots of mod messages to the effect of ‘quit posting that kind of thing, post in the right forum, etc etc.?’

This seems like an appropriate thread for a lurker to post for the first time. Look at that little **1** over there! Now you “newbies” with 400-something posts can feel better.

Nah, that number pales in comparison to just the number of times I asked for evidence from Phaedrus.

What’s amusing is that Opal’s vote shows like 7 people voting for Satan for “most posts” and maybe 1 for me. 🙂
