Hi guy's, yes, in exactly just 4 more posts and I would have hit that 7000 post. Ever ponder on what and how to use it? I'm sure many have. Sure, I can have a "Giveaway" like most members do. I'm thinking outside the box. Lol. Trying to be conservative on my last 3 posts before that big one. Stay tuned... :*

    I stopped looking at post counts long ago.... I did post a message of thanks for my 75K post though... It was brought to my attention just before hitting that number by several members. Cheers, RickO

    Oh ... So that's what those numbers mean.

    @joeykoins

    I see some replies discussing the difference quantity and quality, which is of course true. The fact that a high post count does not equal a high quality post count goes without saying.

    But you have asked whether anyone has considered it. I have seen many members say they are doing something, and even sometimes it will be suggested to them by another. So it is definitely on the minds of people. I don't remember doing that, but I did do a new collector giveaway on I think my one year of being a member. I have seen that too.

    I'm just posting this to check what my post count is.

    Edit: OK, not a milestone.

    17,301 is not a prime number, but 17,317 is...

    I actually feel bad that I must have let my 16,384th post go uncelebrated.

    To celebrate my 7000th, (one more post away) I decided to buy a mixture. Out of the 5 items, 3 are silver related. The other two are quite interesting. How did I do for a total purchase of $30? Thanks guys. :)

    That's because 75,000 posts was thought to be unattainable. They're working on designing you one with dcarr's help. It'll be awarded retroactively.

    Is that with or without privy mark?

    It can be without, wouldn’t want anyone to think I’m greedy.

    Open up about 30 browser windows on 30 different threads, type in a reply, then post them all at once.

    Blow right past 7K and nobody will realize it

    Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.

    When I hit 10,000, I did not want to give away any inventory so I gave away fresh-caught Ahi Tuna instead :p

    It actually was only for locals who were within driving distance as I wanted to deliver fresh and not frozen tuna.

    I did give away a good amount a fish to a forum participant.

    Right now, I only have extra lobster tails but you are from Boston, so I am sure you a good on your lobster supply :)
