20,000 ??

So, I hit the big two O.... O O O

Not sure what this means if anything. Never really paid much attention to the post count thing anyway. People seem to enjoy it and like pointing it out, but not so much anymore. Is that good or bad? Not sure....man, twenty thousand posts....

so much for barely getting a hundred like before the reset. I suck at being a lurker....

Ok, now you can admit that you're really a bot designed to pass Turing's test through messageboard posting.

By the gods, that is just insane...anyone else think we should reincorporate Crothian into the system as a whole and distribute his posts equally?

Reincorporate Crothian into the system? Wouldn't that give him the ultimate powers over the boards?

Crothian, congrats, and may your next 20,000 posts be as filled with wisdom as the previous.

Ehh, not impressed.

When you hit 10K I was impressed, but to do it again you need another digit.

Yeah, I remember when I hit 20,000 posts...

(You all do realize that once you hit 1 million, it starts over, right? That's why you only see around 600 by my name...)

Yep...

Really.

1,000,600 for me.

Of course, that still leaves 1000 totally worthless posts.

Hmmm...

trying to find an appropriate present for Crothian.

AHA!

How about some crazy glue to repair that Post Reply button of yours? Heck, I can go all out and buy you a BRAND NEW Post Reply button.



Keep it up. And I'll find something appropriate to gift you with @ GenCon
