Who has the most post????

I was wandering through reading some post when I was looking at the amount of post some people have gotten up to ((HANDY has ALOT)). So my question, well actually I have 2, are:

  1. Who has had the most post in straightdope history

  2. Who has the most post right now out of active dopers

Thanks for any answers in advance:)

Handy’s it. He’s got to be approaching what…15000 or so.

And he’s still active.

And a quick search reveals he’s at 15650.

However, he will lose at some point in the future. Possibly Guinastasia or Q.E.D. will be the first to overtake him.

Off to ATMB.

I do. Oh wait, no, I don’t(but now I have one more:))

This was discussed and answered at some length a few weeks ago:
"What user has the most posts? … although that thread was locked when things degenerated.

He who post most like well-made toast
He who post least like rising yeast.

It is interesting how post counts cause such a fuss,
When it really doesn’t matter to most of us.
Though I have to confess,
That in my newbie earnestness
My Darwinian metaphor of post counts was ambitious.
