If I had the post rate of some people here I'd have 300,000 posts by now. My posts laid end to end would wrap around the whole equator!! :D Given the fact that boards starts to appear on…

Given the fact that boards starts to appear on the radar of 'de yoot' about 14yo or so, in a few short years I'll have been on boards longer than the newest posters have been alive.

My question is. Do any 10 year vintage posters have as few posts as me??

Just did the maths. I've been a member for ~9 years or 3,053 days, with a shameful 204 205 posts. That's about 0.067 posts per day. As you can see I don't post often, but when I do, they're pretty awesome. :cool:

That was it Not as high ratio now; but was quite a lot in a short time - maybe not as much as I thought, though.
