passing 10000

[zebra]

so apparently i missed hitting 10000 posts at some point in the past while.
just thought i'd mention that to the 1 or 2 people who might care

[Overflow]

Congrats dude!


I hit my 10,000th today.

[zebra]

^^wow! and in barely 1.5yrs - that's a lot of forum time


so i went back & found what my 10,000th post was & almost fell over laughing when i read it & how conveniently relevant it was of course it had to be while chatting with another couple post-whores last saturday
i reckon that means i got it in before this year, too

I could've sworn you were in there more.

i guess if it's speech time or anything like TAG did, it'd be this:

if there's one thing i've learned around here - it's that it don't really matter what your post count is. for one, it can easily be modified in any number of means (one forum i'm on arbitrarily decided to reset me to 0 ). two, you can have 50,000 posts of nothing but smilies and not know much in the way of helping people with their cars making you not as technically useful as someone who has 100 posts of nothing but helping people troubleshot problems. granted these are extreme cases, but you get the picture.


for those who can't see my sig, i obviously backslid on my Camaro friends/ambitions & went to the dark side - a decision i won't apologize for it's been my dream since 1st grade & i finally had a chance to live it! that said, i'm grateful to all my friends that i've made here over the past 3 1/4 years who've let me stick around even after i let my vast technical knowledge of the Camaro slip through the cracks. it's been fun & helped keep me in good spirits through some tough times. thanks to all y'all for being AWESOME!!




ps - i didn't use near enough smilies in that

i used to live in the original post whore thread for the first year or so, but then had a spell without interwebz & when i got back, it was a madhouse that was just too much to keep up with without constantly staying logged on. that & nowadays, if i do say anything in there, i just get ignored, so i stay out. also, there were a couple times i'd take 3-6 months without even logging on. i just needed a general break from the computer.

ps - our forum currently has 122 smilies

[bossbunny]

Whore.

10k?

I guess I fall in as not so comic relief. LOL

BUT, my post count is probably 80% bullshit and 20% helpful.

You are a charter member in my opinion. And a GM guy.
