I don't know how some can do so many posts.
Do they get alerts on their phones and add their 2 cents worth to every one?

Once they start paying out the $$$, it's a sweet gig... paid to post stories, pics, jokes, and utter bs too.... along with occasional sound advice... hey....

Glen bought a freakin' plane!

I think I'm still in the 50-60k range. I suspect Glenn is top dog or pretty close.

Yeah, they disabled that back in the day.

When I first discovered Pelican (Tech only), I drove a screen like many here and it wasn't as "chatty" ... but I just read.... all day long ... between interruptions.

After a few years ... I discovered OT ... then it became more of a real-time "chat room" ... around the PARF split.

There used to be a bunch of active 50K+ posters .... prolly hundreds over 30K.

Glen & Paul post TONS of pics, jokes, etc., and some just want to discuss ticks ... a LOT

And we have bots now too...

Do you consider the people who were banned so they created a 2nd, 3rd, ??th account?

I have a crazy post count, no augment here.

As a lifetime photographer, I love photos. I have a crazy post count in the old original random photos thread. It was corrupted, and the new random posts thread was started. I have over 5,000 posts in the new random thread.

I have over 22,000 posts in the Stijn thread alone.

I honestly never pay attention to post counts or star rating unless someone brings it up.

For the last 10 years, I work for myself, so no boss wanting me to get busy, amd we run the business like a lemonade stand. No ads, no fancy web page, and mostly word of mouth customers. We make enough to pay the hangar rent, and make the airplane payment, and pay for the many expenses of airplane ownership, like $442.95 for a set of spark plugs!

I started out in the 911 Thread. Lots of posts there, but I discovered OT, and I discovered the brain trust, and the many unusual and weird folks, and I fit right in as a major weird dude.

So I will keep posting. The big bucks Pelican pays me for posts is great money!

If I had posted like Muldose ... I would have 250K posts and the crying baby pic would be 30-40K of them

Glen is just a lightweight ... that never joined the band

Not exactly a badge of honor. More like a badge of too much free time.

At 100k, not even light can escape the gravitational pull of the post's cumulative mass, creating an event horizon, beyond which, nothing can be seen. No posts get out, and they are never heard from again, even though the poster is sitting in their underwear happily typing away in their own home.

Speaking of- what happened to Island? He was on a similar logarithmic posting trajectory during covid.

Are Island and fint hanging out in PARF still... 50K PARF posts count too ... don't they?

Glen ... with Glenn, and fint in close competition would be my guess.... for total posts...
still. Glen is a relative newbie tho .
