If there is already a thread for this, just zap it and tell me where the old one is. I thought we needed on as I am closing in on 3000 posts and Jennie is nearing 1900. If it doesn't get used, I*mogen or B_A_R_T can get rid of it. Thats all.
I do beleive this makes 175 for me! yay!!! yeah kinda a sad number isnt it?. . . yes, why yes it is!!
This post number 3000 for me! I wonder if our wonderful house author ever thought her site would have a person with this many posts?
Well this is post #655, and that's a great acheivement considering I haven't been here as long as others. I also calculated I'll be overtaking Nome in a month, I've already overtaken Yoda, and at this rate I'll never catch up with HG.
Imogen, admit it. Your board is successful. More than 3000 members, with one of them over 3000 posts to date!
LETS HEAR IT FOR DRIE!!! She just passed Jennie as #2 all-time poster hear at Elenarda. If I stop posting, she may actually catch me.
She passed me a while ago
Oh well, congratulations! I'll just have to make up for it before I leave for Boston on the 16th.
HG, you'd better stay on for a while!
Not that it matters but this is post 1817 for me!
~DL
I'm aiming for Nome. There's less than 50 posts seperating us, and then I might move up into 9th place. It's not a race, just a fact of life.

Yeah I know. I was trying to give you some hope.
Well it can't compare with HG, Drie and company but 600 is not bad for a mom of four.
~Hershey~
Keep plugging away, Hershey! You'll make the 1000 mark by Xmas!
Robert
Thanks for the encouragement Robert!
~H~
With this post, I've hit 2000. I can't believe it! Thank you, Imogen, for creating such a great site that has kept me coming back again and again (and again and again).
Now, if HG will quit posting, I should take him over in, now let me see, carry the one, subtract by 10 . . . NEVER!
I just tied with Yoda. Shh, don't anyone tell!!
~Hershey~
You go girl!
700, hoo yeah!!
Must continue to widen the gap however! Constant Vigilance!
~Hershey~
I didn't realise I overtook nome, and now Imogen's the next one up...
But will you pass me?
Better worry worry less about QH and more about me!
Is our evil teddy bear feeling a little competitive?
Have you been watching Bo' Selecta again?
in answer to your querry, HG, nope. I'm just out to catch a red head. Then I'll come after you!
What IS this thread?
Its cool!
(i know Roberts plans to catch the reeeed heeeaaad nah-nah-nah)
Maybe if I keeled over right now and you started non-stop posting, then maybe you could catch me, maybe. And what is Bo' Selecta?
Bo' Selecta is a show in the UK that may not have reached the US yet. Their homepage, http://www.channel4.com/entertainment/tv/microsites/B/bo_selecta/index.html, features the exact same character I was referring to further up the thread.
I'm still after HG in # of posts . . . but I don't think that will happen. At least, not without a bunch of random posts clogging up Elenarda, and I don't want to do that.
On the other hand, I think the one we should watch is Jerry, as he's at over 100 and he's only been here for about 4 days!
800 posts and I'm in the Top 10!
(*dances about wildly*)
Congratulations, Hershey! Bumped Nome off, huh?
Oh, and Drie, I'm going to my basement now to work on a Chemistry experiment. If something explodes, not only will I stay down there for over a decade, but I'll never be able to touch this computer again, so don't worry too much (Anyway, I'm not posting just for post count. I'd never do that... intentionally )

Me neither, but I just reached 900 baby! |
Apparently, many people are overtaking me in the post count. I don't mind. As long as I stay above Yoda, I'm not competing with anyone. If I overtake, I overtake. I'll just throw a party each time I do overtake, that's all.
And now props to QH for hitting the 900 mark.
Thanks. But I'm aiming for the grand.
This now marks my 1000 post. And it only took me almost a year to make it this far!
It must be magic!
~Hershey~
WOO HOO!!!
Way to go, Hershey!
Hey, I just realized I passed my anniversary as well.
Congratulations, Drie! I'll try not to burst into a song by Cliff Richard.
I have a while to go for my anniversary, but I am nearing my 1k mark, and I could overtake three people very soon. And I'm now second on Celebdaq. I am doing well these days!
This one post. This tiny post. This minute addition to this thread marks my 1000th post in this board. At this rate, I'll have built up 1942.8 posts on my one year anniversary. I'll hopefully also have a birthday cake eighteen days before I reach this number, being a birthday to celebrate the start of the third year of my twenties.
YEA BOYEEE! Whoop de whoop on your accomplishment. Fo' shizzle! Welcome to the quadrupulate digits, my friend.
(Drie, trying desperately to prove that she's not as old as she feels today!)
Just remember, Drie, you'll alway be younger than me!
Not much of a milestone, but more a quick note that I've beaten Imogen on posting count with this one post.
I just reached 3300. Only 360 more to my goal. I want to have an average of 10 on my anniversary.
This should be my 1204th post. I didn't realise I beat the 1200 mark. I was too busy posting wildly with Drie and HG and Phred to notice.
I just passed 3400! Only 260 more posts to my goal.
Pssst! Bart! Is there any way to zero HG's post count on the 29th August 2004? It'd only be for a day as then he won't get his average of 10....
That would be evil QH.
I'm so nice 99% of the time, I'm allowed to be evil sometimes, aren't I? Anyway, I only suggest it. If it acually happens, it's not me fault.
QH and Hershey have both gone over 1300. Cool Beans!
Did I mention I broke 3500? Only 160 posts left to my goal.
Yep. Hershey and myself should be close most of the time as we're trying to beat each other for some reason. I don't really want to compete, but I never turn down a challenge.
WOO HOO! I am now at 3600 posts. Only 60 away from my goal.
With my last post, I hit my goal!
That's great, hockeygod!
I slid past 100
Has anyone seen our post counts recently or have they disappeared for a while? Of course, this post is more aimed at Bert or Imogen, who should know where they've gone...

Would it be easier to lock this thread to discourage the competitive behavious of said individuals?
Excellent suggestion. Something which I could do but I don't know how to bring the numbers back to each post so the point would be moot. In addition, if anyone needs to know how many posts they have there is a list you can access.
~H~
If I was disrupting the boards so much, why did no one tell me?

LOL Don't worry HG, if you'd have been a problem we'd have kicked you
We just thought we've vanish the post counts before a little bit of competitive fun took over the boards. Hopefully you're not too disappointed - there's still the top 10 posters list if you're truly curious about how many posts you've made!
Imogen
Thanks Imogen.
I still look at the list to see how much time I've procrastinated here.
And with this post (drum roll, please) I now have
2000 posts!

Yep, but just remember that between the two of us, we crush HG!
Someone getting caught up in something more than a little good natured posting?
Not that i have a strong objection to competition.
But its really stupid people getting so obbsessed with post counts, and im glad that we cant see them.
I actually do agree. It was a shock not to see them, but since they went, I haven't really missed them. I don't bother looking up how many I've done. I only look at what percentage I procrastinate compared to General Discussion-ing. And that's rare these days, too.

I do believe that makes 2000.
~H~
On the other hand, its quite funny when someone just pops up and says
'i do believe....'
I do believe I've gone over 3000 posts.
I do believe I'm on 2007 now with this little'un.
2007? when did that become a significant number.....?
I need to find out my post count...2007 is LOADS!!
You're at 2027 dalink.

I do believe this gives me 3800 posts.
I remember when HG persisted to post all the time because he wanted the title of top poster off me. (dont deny it cos i know its true) When i really didnt mind who had it i just posted for fun, and i found it hilarious cos every post was HG's !!
Was funny, at the time. Maybe only to me. But.
Im poorly, forgive me.
I plead not guilty.
I would never do that.
The worst lier i have ever known.
Joking...oh well, best be off!! training now
3 weeks early This didn't post the first time
Ahem. 1 year and 49 weeks after joining - 1000 posts for me
Expect it to triple during the NaNo as I tear (what little remains of) my hair out.
Yoda,
PS: also have a job interview on Monday - even less hair (shaving off the beard)

Not that I have anything to bring to this discussion. Just thought I'd get my two cents in. This makes my 49th post since I joined 3 days ago. It's just fun posting with you all! Thanks for letting me share my small news...
As Jerry just pointed out, I've reached 'P2K', meaning post 2000....YAAAY!!!
I have no milestone but i just thought that id post here for no apparent reason wot so ever.
I hope u liked my post.
Yes, I liked it. It brought down the meaning of the concept of the thread, causing disorder in where we post, and chaos across the whole of the board. It was also fun to read!
QuickHare, post #2k,'84
This is my 50th post!!!
I would like to take a moment to mention that most likely by the end of the day today, Jerry will overtake my position as 2nd highest number of posts.
Way to go Jerry!
Thanx, Drie
Incidentally, this one's the one
and.......... *drumroll*....... 100
199 and........
200!!!!!
For no apparent reason, this is post number 2845.
245
All hail Jerry, who has passed me as all-time poster.
Thanks HG.
And Drie deserves credit for going back up to the number 2 spot
370!
Only 49 more posts, and I'll hit 1,000!
Wow, I'm way too excited for my own good!
I DID IT! I made it to 1,000! (Actually, this makes 1,005, but who's counting?) Thank you Jerry for pointing this out to me!
This is post number 3536. Not much of a milestone, but something worth pointing out...
I believe this is my 5000's post. Wow. Just shows how much I love this place...
Thank you Imogen for creating this wonderful place and thanks everybody for continuously making it wonderful!
WOW! Congrats Jerry! I aspire to someday be like you and reach 5000 as well!
*Cristin on knees and worshiping the ground that Jerry is standing on*
(#3589)
Cristin, there's no need to try and reach 5000 posts. I believe in quality before quantity. It's just good of Jerry to provide both, as with the other member to pass the 5000 mark, the wonderful Drie. In fact, a quick snapshot of the leaderboard is as follows:
QUOTE (Post Leaderboard) |
1. Jerry (TMB) 5291 2. Drie (TMS) 5082 3. hockeygod (TMB) 3932 4. QuickHare (TMB) 3588 |
and after a year & a half, 3001!
I can join the 3000 club now!
CONGRATS HERSHEY!
Because I'm feeling rather random...I'm at 5219.
There is a very good chance that by tonight (or tomorrow) there will be a new all-time poster here at Elenarda, so without further ado...
Way to go Drie for reaching first place!!!
Jerry
May I be the first to congratulate Drie on becoming officially the top poster!!!!!
Oh dear. Oh dearie dear. I officially have no life, as I've reached 6,000 posts.
I just happen to look to the left and saw that this was to be my 2,001st post! Wow...although this isn't quite as impressive as Drie's 6,250...
Well, I must be kicking on a bit, chugging away slowly but surely... The hare always wins the race, right? Or is it the tortoise? Though it could also be the fox. Or the owl.
Oh, thanks, Cristin. Now you've confused me. Now what will I do?!
I don't know what number of post this is for me, nevertheless it is a milestone!
For reasons unknown.
To everyone.
Including me!
xxxxxxx
I've reached a milestone. It says "400 miles London". Does that count?
