My 1,500th post!

[LimeiBook86]

I can't believe I've been here so long :eek: It seems like yesterday when I first got my avatar after struggling forever to get 500 posts. I'd like to thank everyone here because you've all been nice and friendly to me and I couldn't of asked for a cooler place to hang out and chat. I decided rather than posting in a random discussion about my 1,500th post I'd do this here so it wouldn't be considered spam (well maybe it still is but, meh!)

Here's to 1,500 more!!

Thanks!
-Steven :D

Congrats. I know how difficult it can sometimes feel to reach the 500 posts milestone.

Yeah that was years ago for me but, it sure doesn't feel like it ;)

[grapes911]

Congrats. That's a big milestone. Good luck on 2,000.

PS. I love threads like these. :D

4,000! :eek: Wow that's a lot! I wonder who has the most!? :rolleyes:

[PlaceofDis]

4,000! :eek: Wow that's a lot! I wonder who has the most!? :rolleyes:
Mr. Anderson has the most undoubtedly and will certainly remain in the top spot for some time, im number 30 or so i believe....

there is a way to do a search for members by post count, but i don't know how to post a link to the search results.....

Tho this kind of post usually is classed as spam since the last thing the forum needs is everyone posting every time they hit a posting milestone. People should just edit that milestone mark post if they want to mark it since generally, it's of far more interest to the individual than the community as a whole. ;)

Dude, didn't it take you just over a week?

[Lacero]

Dude, didn't it take you just over a week?Yes, and it was very difficult.

[runninmac]

Wow congradulations. I think it was a month ago I got my avitar so I still have a long ways to my 1000th post and I agree this community is the best.

Yes, and it was very difficult.
I guess that would be difficult. Sorry if I offended you.

Yes, now keep posting so this stays alive! *shakes off cob-webs*

Hey I am a MR newbie anyone here know how many more post to get to a MR regular and get an avatar??? :) :)

Congrats but this is my 2000th post. Many of your whipper-snappers may have your post counts above mine, but let's see you beat my join date, 06-22-2001.

hehheh, any trolling going on? :rolleyes:

I just hit 100 posts today and it's taken me 5 months :( Who knows when I'll finally get round to getting a 'tar?

[MacNut]

I just hit 100 posts today and it's taken me 5 months :( Who knows when I'll finally get round to getting a 'tar?It took me about 3 years to get 500 posts. I started out like most others as a lurker then over time got more comfortable and posted more.

[ravenvii]

Hehe, just checked, and I got over 1,500 posts. I don't really pay attention to my postcount after getting the avatar. The most I've ever posted at any forum was somewhere around 4,500 posts. That forum went down and out unfortunately.

[dops7107]

Hey Raven - I know it's somewhat off-topic, but seeing as this is pretty much a non-topic thread...

I've been meaning to ask for some time now (it was going round my head when i was putting out laundry to dry, for some reason :confused: ) - what is a "spoony bard"? Some kind of Shakespearean cutlery?

Read this (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=37092) thread. And for future referrence, reading those stickies and FAQ's at the top of each forum disscussion area really is helpful-- not just to you, but to others who may have already answered the question many times. ;)

don't quote me on this but i seem to remeber this as an insult in a video game. i'm not sure though. it cracks me up either way.

Haha, no. It's a quote from a video game, Final Fantasy III (Final Fantasy IV in Japan). It was said by a character named Tellah, and as cussing in video games was taboo back then, the translators turned whatever the cuss word was in Japanese into "spoony".

I can't believe this thread hasn't been wastelanded yet. No offense LimeBook as you're a great guy, but creating a thread just to brag about, well, your post count, is considered spam. ;) Can you imagine if everyone did this? :eek: Heck, I didn't even make a big deal when I hit 5000 posts and became a 601, and there are only about 7 of us or so in existence!

All that being said, congrats, (I can understand why you're so excited), and it's been great having on you in the Forums. :) :cool:

But I applaud the mods for letting it go for a while. Let everyone get it out of their systems, then trash the thing.

Fair enough... These threads are definitely fun, especially on a lazy Sunday. :)

Soft is such a poor term. I prefer compassionate. :D

[PlaceofDis]

i agree, compassion, or just having some mercy on us small folks..... not soft at all

[iBlue]

what is it with men and the word "soft"? ;)

:D

haha, nothing bothers me about that word personally..... but i could see where it would bother some other guys...

[~Shard~]

Would "soft" be the opposite of (s)hard? :eek:

Couldn't resist... ;)

you mean other than to make me wonder what your avatar is? (i still can't figure it out, it looks like a hard plastic cartoon pair of knickers... and this topic is not helping me from seeing it that way either) ;)

[PlaceofDis]

actually its Samus Aran of Metroid fame, it is the main character in the video game, the 'tar is a picture of her visor with a reflection of her vaguely showing up as well

edit: i could always change it back to this:

ok, i see it, thanks i was curious. boy i feel like a knucklehead about the plastic knickers thing now!

edit: TOOL, so that was you. i saw that when i first came here and saved the image i thought it was cool to see that in animation!

[PlaceofDis]

ok, i see it, thanks i was curious. boy i feel like a knucklehead about the plastic knickers thing now!

haha, no worries, maybe you just have a dirty mind..... ;) :p

and yes that was me, i switch back to that 'tar every now and then, awesome band and concept too, freaky in its own way

[iBlue]

haha, no worries, maybe you just have a dirty mind..... ;) :p

hell, i could have told you THAT! :D

i am dying laughing at our recent edit situations too... too funny! (care to dance?)

edit: yes i adore tool... good avatar to switch around with.

edit again: just had to switch back to that 'tar now!

Wooohooo the mods are going soft, I can spam! I'm posting (spamming) this so I can increase my post count by one. I've no idea how many posts I have. Infact I'm going to check that now.

edit: it's 1069. Exciting stuff.

oh gee, it's called conversation. i am fully aware that this thread could go into wasteland and the posts within would no longer "count" - i couldn't care less, i was just enjoying myself. crickey!
party pooper :p

[edesignuk]

That's probably enough random chit-chat and hitting on iBlue by ~Shard~ and PlaceofDis, take it outside gents ;) :p

LimeiBook86, 1,500 is great and all, but come back and tell us when you hit 10k :p :D
