I’m curious, and I like to have an idea of how often you post. I’d also like to see who has the highest, but don’t be hesitant to reply if someone else has a higher posts/day ratio already… Surreeeee, you say. I could just go around and look at everyone’s profiles. That would be too easy, though. Mine is **5.52 posts per day** , but I’m sure it changed since I am now just adding one more post to the total. So what’s yours? ---

2.13 It would be higher, but I lost some posts during the dark time. ---

1.02 ppd. “Gee, he seemed like a nice guy. Kinda quiet, though.” ---

2.49 posts per day - but I think it was over three before “the dark time” as Lsura so eloquently put it. Roughly 3.11 I think it was. ---

A lot of posts per day. I don’t know exactly, but I like to post things and watch as the pages fill with the anger and frustration of so many people who don’t agree with me. ---

I’m at 0.97 per day, but it’s a bit skewed since I wasn’t posting for about 6 months last year when I was living abroad. It’d be closer to 2 per day w/o that absence. ---

I’m at 1.07 ppd. I also should be about 80 posts higher, so with that, I’d be around 1.19 ppd. Jman ---

Currently my ratio is 1.35 posts per day. I lost about 300 posts, due to the hack. ---

3.80: People who registered or re-registered after the winter of our missed content are probably going to be at the top because the other people not only lost posts but have around 100 days of 0 posts factored into the average. Still, can’t top **YLT** ---

Still, can’t top **YLT** \*\* Well, if it’s going to be a contest, then I am at about **6.3** / day\*. If you factor back in the WoOMC posts, then it’s more like 11/ day. Which is just sad. And **Big Kahuna Burger** posts more during football season, IIRC. 😉 I usually avoid posting in threads about post counts, but we can’t let the young’ns think that they’re all that, can we. **Yo La Tengo** , shouldn’t you go outside and play or something? ---

1.32. Actually, I’m surprised it’s that high. I lurked for almost an entire year before my first post, then stopped posting from March to December 2000, only starting again to have my December 2000-February 2001 posts deleted. Somebody posted to a thread I started a few weeks ago who registered in _March 1999_ and had **35** posts. I don’t know anyone who can beat 0.03 posts a day for a record-low. ---

As or this post, it is 14.76 posts per day. Yes, I’m an addict. :eek: It would perhaps be higher, but sometimes the activities I do on the weekends (and other times) cut into my posting ratio. 😃 (and no, I’m NOT talking about sleep!) Luckily, I registered a few days after the board got everything fixed, so my post ratio is intact… unless the board has another problem… _crossing fingers and toes that it doesn’t happen… or I’d lose a bloody lot of posts!_ ---

I’m at 10.73 or so. I had it up close to 20 PPD at a few points, but my posting rate - and the Dark Age of Early '02 - dropped it a few notches. ---

I’m the lowest so far at 0.52 posts per day, although I’ve seen much lower. (This week, however, it’s been more like 4-5 ppd!) ---

0.34. It would be higher but a lot of my replies would say “me too!” or repeat what someone else had already said so I don’t post them. Plus I’m shy! 🙂 ---

Me too **Nortia** , 1.29 or so
