high post count people you've never heard of...
Have you ever been reading a post from somebody you've never heard of and you look over and their post count is big - at least a thousand, maybe more? Meanwhile, there are people you recognize and remember who suddenly you realize have only 200 or something posts?
It's just weird... been happening to me a lot lately. Maybe my mind is going...

Truthfully though, that new Icon has thrown me off a few times.

I blame the play-by-post games. Those are fairly high traffic, and I never look at them.

*laugh* I was looking at Crothian's post count earlier today. I thought about changing my sig.
Only 16,063 posts behind Crothian - losing ground daily.

I'm sure it doesn't help when some of us change our usernames.

So if you're not RPGNet's Topher, does that make you NKL's Topher?

I remember many posters by their avatars only. Stop changing your avatar, or I'll forget who you are!
I just noticed that Psion has been afflicted by the Drowness recently...

There's just so many people around here, I can't keep up. (Crothian is the guy who shows up in all the threads about postcount to mention that "postcount means nothing". I'm sure he'll be around eventually to let everybody know his titanic postcount is meaningless.)
edit: well what do you know he showed up while I was typing.

Per your request, I have changed my avatar.
Oh wait, that wasn't what you asked for.
Sialia made a few avatars for me. They are all very similar and I like them all, so I sometimes shift between them.
For me, just look for a flying fox with a lute, in whatever color scheme/position it currently is.
