How Many Posts?

I'm not real big on post padding - primarily because I'm too lazy. As such I've racked up all of 30 posts in 3 months. But I am curious as to how many posts it takes to move beyond the Junior level. Makes me feel kinda....I don't know....like Ernie on My Three Sons somehow.

As an aside, I'm also considering asking that my log in name be changed to "Crack Whore." I think I might get better response because people will be curious. IE: "Huh...I wonder what a Crack Whore could want to know?"

Thanks and see you all later.

Well, now I get to sleep with the lights on again.

That's some nasty imagery there.

I said "not real big" - but I was a Junior then - you know, like Ernie.

We can try Thom, but we'll never catch nostatic. Especially now that he's laid up with a stash of narcotic pain pills...

nostatic? You mean Chip, right? I tried to tell him about the dangers of those gosh darn motorcycles.

Man, I'm starting to think that I got into a stash of those pills.

What do you think Wayne is doing every time he shuts the board down for "maintenance". Padding his post count of course...

Back in the day, every reply to an initial post counted, so you could get 10-20 posts out of one topic by just answering yes or no. I'm not sure why or when they changed it.

Probably back when Wayne offered a prize for the gazillionth post. Man, there were TONS of one word, one symbol, posts as a result.

the narcotics just slow down my typing. Luckily I don't take very many of them.

Ok, I might take a lot of them, but not very often.

Ok, I might take a lot of them all the time but it doesn'[t realllly affectt my postse veryy mush.

There were prizes? Sheesh! I wondered how some people got to 10,000 posts by typing "blah blah Bush blah blah Clinton blah blah Popoff valve blah blah how do I turbocharge my cat blah blah blah...and so on.

But prizes! Now it all makes sense.
