Let’s put 23,000 posts into perspective...

Currently, the combined posts of everybody who has posted in this thread so far (including me) still is not even half the posts that ScottC himself has already posted.

Canarsie -- your math is TERRIBLE. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

Just to be different I thought I'd make all my posts on real threads, on active Forums, and all done manually. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif

Beware the smoke and mirrors trick as Houdini once said. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif

And remember we are all minnows compared to doc with over 40,000 real posts. That is a truly awesome contribution to FT.

Yes, congrats to ScottC. I've certainly found his posts to be of help to me in the technology forum and he's been an invaluble help in his new volunteer duties as a moderator.

I'm sure we'll also welcome oz as he nears his 20,000-post level as well. Those are truly long distance posts. The funny thing about oz is that he posts when i'm thinking that the great country (or most of it) of Australia should be sleeping.

Honestly, how these members do it is well beyond me.

But as we know, no matter how much we post, there will still only be one 'doc.'

Gee, perhaps we need to re-introduce the FT Evangelist title?

FewMiles Dec 4, 2003 2:15 pm

Belated congratulations, ScottC! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

But IIRC one used to acquire that title at 250 posts?

Gosh, it took what felt like ages to drop the "New Member" title off of my postings!

What are you implying?

Patron Jan 17, 2004 2:48 am

My apology for joining in so late, ScottC, congrats for almost 24k posts!

I remember, I applaud you for joining the 10k Post Club in June 2003, and within half a year, you did around 13k posts or around 70 posts/day! If you keep that pace, you will catch up with doc very soon!

flamboyant 1, it is even more amazing, if you take a shorter period of time in account: ScottC joined the 10K Posts Club on June 3rd 2003. BigLar reported, that he past the 20K posts line on August 25th 2003.

10K posts in 83 days makes an average of 120 posts/day.

As you said before: Simply amazing!

Res ipsa loquitur.
Just like baseball statistics, one can always apply asterisks or create new sub-categories of superlatives.

It's part of the modern, competitive, analytical age.

"OMNI" and "In the News" may be "easy posts," but to reach the extraordinary post counts of doc, ozstamps (who lost many thousand from his count to a computer glitch!), and ScottC (our resident computer savant), one must have a lot of free time, or excellent time management skills, or both. Most importantly, one must be committed to making the Flyer Talk community a better place for all.

Congratulations!

ScottC Jan 20, 2004 10:02 am

FWIW, Ozstamps regained every single one of his posts after I helped FT staff out on how to manually edit the post count, so his current post count is the correct one.

Should we take a pool like when Scotty hits 25k or 30k?
