TS- Slow down on posting. Keep posting at your present rate, and you'll have more posts than me. And that would be disgraceful. I'd never live with myself. Posts: 1795 | Registered: Dec 2004

Steve, you think I'll soon have more posts than you? Probably before the end of the day.

You threw down the gauntlet and I trompled all over it. Check out my numbers!

Oh Baby! I rock! Go Shvester! Go Shvester!

I'm outa control! WhooHoo!

Tanteleh, I think you need a little less caffeine, and a little more sleep.

Sleep? What is this sleep? I know no sleep?

What is the point of being unconscious and lying in a soft bed with a squishy pillow next to the man I love...

Umm,

I, uh,

Tante - now I'm scared. I'm a VFP (very-frequent-poster), and have been here since October. But you just scare me. You're like kq... Posting without any limits. And I pased Verily the Younger befor I reached 1000. I passed - and will pass - Steve (ever since he came here), I passed King of Men several times, but you are scaring me. You'll ware-out your keyboard.

Her posting is nothing compared to when rivka was obliterating all the competition. (I don't think many of you guys were around at that time.) Just look at when that lovely lady registered, and you'll understand what I mean. And Dag too, he's another one.
 

---

Posted by Narnia (Member # 1071) on :
 
On second thought Tante, if you keep up at this rate, you'll hit 15K in about the same amount time they did.

Posted by rivka (Member # 4859) on :
 
Dags' rate has been noticeably above mine for quite some time. He registered October 15, 2003 and has (at last count) 15414. I registered March 17, 2003 (almost exactly 7 months earlier) but only have 15109 posts. Someone more awake than I can compute relative posting rates.

I temporarily passed him at some point, I think when he was offline for two weeks? But that was temporary.
 

---

Posted by Narnia (Member # 1071) on :
 
Must have been when he got married.
 

---

Posted by rivka (Member # 4859) on :
 
I think so, yes.
 

---

Posted by Jonathan Howard (Member # 6934) on :
 
And what about kq? She signed on a MONTH before me - and look at her posts. 7,000 or something. I remember her at 2,000...

Posted by Dagonee (Member # 5818) on :
 
I hadn't caught Rivka when we (edit: Eve and I) got married. I was at a different family event when she passed me.

Posted by Jonathan Howard (Member # 6934) on :
 
Nice edit.

*laughs at the edit*

Well, you were away for a while, I know that much. Probably that's the only way it'll happen again, too.

*wipes brow* Whew! He isn't talking about me.

No, but I believe he may be talking about me . . .

Nah. You just married someone you'd never met after falling in love with the quality of his tech support. That's something entirely different. *grin*

You'll have to excuse me. I got off to a slow start.

Hey Tante is even ahead of me. but any one can get more post counts than a lurker like me.

Posted by BannaOj (Member # 3206) on :
 
Do Tom Davidson and Bob_Scopatz still reign in the post count battle? Bob's rate has dramatically decreased, so Tom's probably ahead again, but he's also been here since the Ice Age. You might be able to estimate based on current post rates, when they will surpass TomD...

Posted by Jonathan Howard (Member # 6934) on :
 
But post-rates can change. In 18 months kq will probably pass Tom - but what if her rate decreases? The functions have more than one dimension - we're talking parabulas!
 

---

Posted by Tante Shvester (Member # 8202) on :
 
Are parabulas anything like nebolas?
 

---

Posted by katharina (Member # 827) on :
 
Am I still a distant third? Or has someone passed me up?

Both Dag and Rivka will pass me up soon, I think. That makes me feel slightly better about my addiction, considering I registered three years earlier.
 

---

Posted by ElJay (Member # 6358) on :
 
I actually calculated when Dags would pass Bob and Tom at one point, if their posting rates all remained constant. I posted it somewhere, but I'm sure I'd never find it. Not to mention that it would have changed by now.

Posted by kojabu (Member # 8042) on :
 
If y = time and x = the number of posts Tante has, do you think it's a log function?
 

---

Posted by Tante Shvester (Member # 8202) on :
 
A log function? Don't axe me.
 

---

Posted by Dagonee (Member # 5818) on :
 
Jonathan, at KQ's current rate she wouldn't pass Tom in 18 months if he stopped posting right now.

edit: your post rate is on fire. /bad pun

As far as I know, Tom has no alts. Neither do I or rivka.

Bob has a few, with low post counts, and kat has at least one with a couple thousand if I recall correctly.

There's a couple of others with several multi-thousand alts, which obscures post counts pretty effectively.
 

---

Posted by katharina (Member # 827) on :
 
I think we added up all my other alts once, and it was about 1800 additional posts. So, still not 20,000, although it is getting close.

I just now noticed this thread. And I'm ashamed. Of course, I'm in high school while you, as long as you haven't flunked consecutively for a long time, aren't. I have reason. And I was gone for a combined month and a half over the summer. I have reason. Just wait, come Christmas break I'll catch up, father permitting.

Posted by Tante Shvester (Member # 8202) on :
 
Yeah. Right.

If I were in old timey India, I'd be an Untouchable.

If I were in old timey Chicago, working with Eliot Ness, I'd be an Untouchable.

If I were Shomer Negiah, I'd be an Untouchable.

You can't touch me!

Steve, I love when you do that!

But use other login names at your peril -- you'll fall farther and farther behind my count.

It matters not. For I shall conq....oh darn. I'm not on that log in anymore. Anyway, I'll probably not catch up. But it isn't nice to smash one's dreams.

BTW, I'd rather you call me Steve. I don't like broadcasting my name over the internet.
