Is it just me, or does it seem like they have less than a dozen people posting there? After scanning through twenty or so of the threads, the same names keep popping up over and over…

My sig file at [somethingawful.com](http://somethingawful.com) is due for a paring down, but I can’t bear to reduce it! Here it is…

But I have done a thousand dreadful things  
As willingly as one would kill a fly,  
And nothing grieves me heartily indeed  
But that I cannot do ten thousand more.
