I have been here for 2 and 1/2 years and I still have not managed to amass 1000 posts!

I try to stop by at least once a day and I try to post regular either in response to a thread that I think I know enough about to contribute or to put up a new thread but it doesn't help.

How do y'all that have been here for 3 or 4 years manage to put up 10,000+ posts?

I'm in the same boat as you. It's ironic, on here TH has an obscene number of posts, but in person I talk far more than he does.

I would have over 20k posts if I had just welcomed every new member since I signed up. Oh well! Don, you don't want to be a :whore:

Well on line no one can interrupt you while you're typing.

I could certainly try

I've only got 464 and I've been here 2 1/2 years.

I look at it as quality over quantity

 

[Smokewagon]

Strive for quality, not quantity.

This. ^^^

Not this -

It's simple math. It will take you 2.7 years to reach a 1000 posts basis on past performance. If you post just one more time a day, you can cut the time in half.

I am on here M-F and I mainly welcome new members, help out on issues I know something about, and offer words of encouragement and congrats when someone posts a new gun purchase and that is about it. There are so many areas of TA that I don't even read or reply to. I am happy to read/contribute to that which is related to firearms. I could have a lot more too, if I contributed to all that TA has to offer, but my boss would not like my productivity!

3 years for me, and I just went over the 1000 post mark. I'm usually late to the posts, and what I would say has been said already...

We are post whores.

If everyone was intent on quality post, this would be one boring forum. What makes this forum is the people who poke and jab at each other with levity and can get serious when dictated by the subject matter. What difference, in reality, does it make if you have one post or 30,000 post? You are no more or no less a valuable member of the forum, nor are you any more or less important or knowledgeable than the rest of the membership.

Yes, I am a big post whore, but that is because I enjoy being here and conversing with the members, be it serious or with levity. Plus, being fully retired, I have a lot of time on my hands, (because I put off the honey do list) and spend a lot of time on the computer, be it here or else where.

Lets remember BangBang, running your own forum takes a lot of your time away from here and when you couple all the extra things you do, restricts the time you have here. We enjoy your company when you can find the time to stop by, and bring us some great tidbits of information. Don't worry about the post count, there are several others in the same boat.

And that is my on the subject.

We have to know what we are talking about?

 

[Aberdog1]

Not to worry. You are ahead of me and I have been here since 4-2011...

 

[88keys]

It's not just you. I'll be here a lifetime before I become a General, and that's fine.

 

[Magnum_Gauge]

It's not too hard to up your posts. Just get into a debate with TexasAviator and you will be general in about a week

Unfortunately a lot of us have jobs that keep us offline putting food on the table. I am going to retire on April 11 so watch out. This forum is a great way to fight boredom and also learn a thing or two

 

[Scott91370]

I don't know how they do it. I mean, Texheim doesn't have a life so I get that part. But for the majority of us it doesn't make sense.

Try doing it in person. I lost my voice after laughing the hardest I have in years the last night of the Sand Lake meet. :clap:
