You hurt my little exaggerative ego.

Bar the numbers, the rest is true. Kier still won't do anything about it and there are still far more actives than dormants and that drags us down.

Viewers, of course, mean jack. I was viewing SB.com from late '99, posters are what we want.

Inflated?
Do you have any concept of the difficulty I have in restraining myself sometimes?

How's that steel cage holding up?

Exactly...which is exactly why I still post here. You guys are far too much fun.

I don't see Something Awful anywhere on there... wonder where they'd fit in.

That seems to depend on how you look at it...
If sorting the members list "Total posts, decending" it differs from "Total posts, ascending".
The first lists me on the thrid page, that latter on the fourth-last page...
Shouldn't it be equal, wether you sort ASC or DESC ?

No, because the last page is incomplete.

And I meant #4 poster. -ahem-

Imagine my suprise at how high up on the list I am. Geez, I haven't been here THAT long, have I?

I'm surprised that I'm so low on the list (#24), relative to where I used to be (At least in the top 25). Of course, it doesn't matter how many posts you have, it's whether or not they're not spam. Unfortunately, I'm sure the other members have me beat there too.

I am #98. Yay!

Well I must say, well done all around, SD.Net might actually get some good PR for once.

#100 here.

I enjoy posting here because I know I can say whatever the hell I want is on my mind and not have to worry about offending someone...though I'm member #409 (sing the jingle, and I'll bitchslap you into next week).

I always feel like such a nerd with no life when I see how high up on the list I am. I'm freaking #29, for crying out loud!

You need to go to #71 (RougeIce) to find someone who hadn't registered BEFORE me.

*simultaniously appaled and awed*

Hey, hey, I registered in September. How do you think I look at it? o.O

Ein's the next one down that didn't register before me... but still..

#20.. AND I'm an early register.

Wicked Pilot · Post by **Wicked Pilot** » 2004-01-04 02:22pm

Wow, I'm #57, and that's without inflation due to massive spam. (except for this post of course). Back in the day, the really early day, I got up to #20, but that was during the summer of '02, when I had nothing to do.

Why, are you a commissioned officer? Or will I have some understanding from basic?

Not an officer yet, but chances are good I'll outrank you anyway, unless you somehow make Lance Corporal.

Either way, in ~3 1/2 years, be afraid. Be very afraid.

Why 3.5 years??

The Cleric · Post by **The Cleric** » 2004-01-04 10:39pm

I graduate college with an offered comission as 2nd Luitenant (bah, I know). But I don't have to take it, and I can be out from reserves in as little as 6 years total.

There are those of us who are very active lurkers, and have been so for a long time.

I meant the people with 10 posts who have been here since last December category.

I was the 30th person to join the board, and I just broke 300.
I'm apparently the oldest member with the lowest post count, among those who still post (only 6 people above me have fewer posts (and 4 of those have less than 20)).
