You should have a big poster of it on your wall, then.

As predicted, I have edged past the sadly all too often absent Crow into second place. 91 behind Bambi, make it 90 with this! No-one will ever assail Blue's 1,000 post and rising lead over him. I'll settle for third, but pipping the Bamb is a tempting prospect.

When I do get to England, your butt better be all nice and shiny just like all the rumors I've heard or I'm gonna be really pissed!

If you do get over here, when you meet up with Verbal, you're sure to get really pissed! (British usage, that is.)

There you have a demonstration of why Bamb is 90 posts ahead of me. And he even edited '...'!

Nah, I'd fucked up an edit, earlier.

I don't appear to have the Delete post option. Is this a missing feature of the sire maintenance?

You can't delete a post when you've back-assed yourself with another one by mistake. Thought i'd change the statement then, but, hey, I changed my mind...

Personally I think the posts in the song and album title games should only count for half a post, at best. But perhaps that's just sour grapes...?

We don't really have any control over that. That's how the PhPbb is set up so that's what you get.
Maybe we should have a 1000+
substantial posters club.

Ive easily managed 1000+ of inconsequential posts. Perhaps we could start a thread for this. There must be some others who will join me...
...or perhaps I will be sitting all alone at the table in my party hat.

I'll be there, VG. I think if we count substance, then I'm sitting at zero. but I'm wearing really cute shoes.
Like me, the "g" is silent.

Song and album title posts are as worthy of being counted the same as other posts are, imho.
