I’m guessing that’s the **DealMeIn** / **burpo** connection because I’m pretty sure I’ve never had contact with the person; same with **esmeralda2**. Beats the crap outta me how this works. ---

I’m thinking it’s “thread starter”. Thelma has some large Trump threads, which would explain this # for me. ---

**Chronos** gets top spot for me. But the the next two are people who don’t post here anymore: @Skald_the_Rhymer and @Bricker. **Chronos** makes sense, but you’d think that other posters would have overtaken the other two. Followed by @aceplace, @Little_Nemo, and @astro. These three definitely surprise me, but not as much. I am more of a “reply to post” type of person, so I guess I just don’t discriminate much in who I reply to. (I suspect that the difference between the two types of posters is what types of threads they enjoy most.) > [@kayaker](#): > > @BigT It must be all the awesome joke setups I give you. ---

> [@BigT](#): > > I suspect that the difference between the two types of posters is what types of threads they enjoy most. I think the Game threads would skew heavily to “reply to thread” just because of the nature of the category. I think they tend to have a lot of posts to start with and if those all add into the “reply to thread” of the OP, that’s gonna add up in a hurry. > [@burpo\_the\_wonder\_mutt](#): > > I’m guessing that’s the **DealMeIn** / **burpo** connection because I’m pretty sure I’ve never had contact with the person; same with **esmeralda2**. Beats the crap outta me how this works. I’ve never even heard of either one and they both have about 125 posts and 4 threads started. Since you replied to **DealMeln** 3.5k times and he’s only read 128 posts total, I’m guessing that you are on his ignore list! ☹ ---

It looks like **DealMeIn** joined in February '14, started a bunch of word games threads and split in March '14. I doubt the Ignore List still works after you’ve been gone 7.75 years. **esmeralda2** joined March '13. She started the “Keep a Word, Delete a Word,” game and last post was September '15. ---

Interesting stuff. For me: BrainGlutton - 105 (banned, I believe) - only a little surprised, he was very prolific and seems to pop up a lot. John\_Mace - 100 (gone) - not a surprise to me at all. Zsofia - 88 (gone, I believe) - a little surprising, but a lot of cat and book talk I think. astro - 81 (gone) - another prolific poster. Little\_Nemo - 79 - still active, prolific and seems pretty common on these lists. RickJay - 77 - ditto. Mildly surprising that the top four are departed posters of one sort or another. But then I guess that is mostly down to me having posted here for ~800 years. ---

My top three are: @Chronos (24) @pkbites (24) @Machine_Elf (21) I know I’ve responded to pkbites on threads about policing and guns. I’m not sure where I’ve responded to Chronos and Machine\_Elf though I do enjoy their posts a lot. On my wishlist was @Rocketeer because I usually only respond to them when they post one of their delightful models. Had they made it into the top three, it would mean they’re posting even more models for me to envy. ---
