Recreated from memory after the (speculative) db crash munched on the first one. Absolutely mundane and pointless so this is definately the right forum. I’ve reached a minor milestone, this is my one thousandth post. (Or was in the original thread.) Some threads have been fun, some annoying, some educational, and more than a few with way TMI. Just going to add that I’m looking forward to many more years of fun, flames, and festivities. The only thing I would change would be to have Charter Member under my name, not because I’m cheap and would much rather be paying charter member rates, but because of all the great threads and posters that I know about only through word of mouth. Okay, enough maudlin. Carry on. Nothing to see here. Move along. ---

Congratulations. You know this is most likely going to be locked, right? ---

Congrats man. 1000 is a lot. ---

I guess 1000 is too few to have learned that this is one place that frowns on Post count self congratulation. I make mistakes so that I can tell other people not to. ---

Yeah! Look! It’s my 1,822th post! (I figure I might as well - I don’t want to start my own locked thread.) ---

I guess I did miss that point somewhere. Ah well, I’ve never had a thread closed for a rule violation so I guess this can be a first for me too! I promise not to do it again until I hit the 100k mark when I can claim to have forgotten due to senility. ---

On the plus side, my quest to appear in the most locked threads is coming along nicely. ---

I posted for my 500th and got it locked. My only lock so far. I think. Probably not, in retrospect. Someone say pie? ---

[/QUOTE] Perhaps the mods are dealing with all the threads related to the board’s technical issues. Or perhaps not. Has anyone reported this thread? Do Mods monitor the threads constantly? (Or do they rely on the report post feature?) ---
