Who is the oldest member still posting? And what is your number?

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

OK, I’ll start another thread.

62

I’m #35,413 and I am on track to double that in post count in 436 days, give or take :eek:

63

As GusnSpot pointed out any number lower than 33 (his) was administration at the time and got their number before Tuba started switching members over to the new board. So I’m gonna vote for GnS.

64

So I am #20432? That can’t be right. I must be doing it wrong.

65

That’s about right. You’re a year before me and I’m in the 30s.

#236, joined 3/16/99, 6,000+ posts.

I’m #539, here since April 7, 1999, with 1,473 posts, so I’ve been here longer than most but I’m not nearly as prolific a poster as many. :slight_smile:

79

Member = 5287

Maybe one day I’ll get to the 10K but it will be a while :slight_smile:
