Twenty. Freaking. Thousand.

Somebody's got one of those keyboards with the keys having a worn, shiny bit on top.

Congratulatons Erebus, three cheers icons for a stupendous effort

And I'm rather pished off that that post ended up on a thread that is bound to tank in the next few days on the Skybar! But thanks a million CG!

Roll on 30,000!

Aye! At one point I was overtaking him until he lopped a couple of figures off my post count - and then I had a break and he went 400 posts ahead. Slowly but surely catching up though.

I approve of that post I still can't believe you became a member after me but have totally outpaced me. Its almost enough to bring a tear to my eye.

Apparently 15.69 a day, although it was over 20 a day at one point.

I think I just got bored of the forum a bit, but with Regal making an appearance and the Cube really cracking on, I've picked up again. I did have a lot going on during the summer which set me back a bit.

Will you be a more regular poster again Mercyboy?

EDIT: I've just worked out that just over 10% of the posts in the Regal tower thread are from me.

Congrats to Erebus, already you're close to 21,000. The Fox is only 59 posts ahead, closing in nicely. But Cul and ZZII are the poster kings and Chad are the ones to beat, pure poster kings, lol!

Congratulations John. I remember reaching a hundred. It took me about a year and after that I exploded into a spam post machine and now I can't be stopped.
