How long did it take you to reach 1,000 posts here?

[Diddums]

A personally historic moment. Haha

Right where's all those cheap GFX cards on the MM.

Make sure you offer a score for a 2080ti because someone else sold one for that price last year.

 

[EssexBoy]

Slowly getting there haha

I think I disagreed with Fox a lot so it didn't take very long at all.

Many moons ago

Whoa, I've way more posts than I thought! No idea when I passed 1000 though.

@Diddums can't wait for him to reach 1299 then you can post another pic of the sexier Ducati

I think pretty much anyone in motors can make that claim tbh. Dude can be very helpful but he has certain... Erm... "Qualities" which also has the opposite effect

Ages. Certainly well over a year and probably closer to three. I can't remember if I had 1000 posts pre-nuke in 2002 or not. 17 years later and I have over 4 times that.

 

[FBi7]

In about 2.5 - 3 years (in the future)

I could work it out but it's too early in the thread for serious answers.

With testimony like this my expectations are already ramped

Tried it, sodding grey on black on dark grey, with white text. I like Internet 1.0, but I do not see going mega monochrome as an advantage here. This place is dark blue by default with white text, so therefore is somewhat darkmode and easy-on-the-eyes already.

Seems like it’s taking me for ever haha

 

[Daaaavvveee]

I mainly just read and don't post, took me quite a while!

When I joined 100 posts couldn't come soon enough to shake off Fredo's face next to my name.

Next up was a made man (should be more high ranking on this forum for that alone I'd have thought), yet was murdered in Goodfellas. Either way, quite a step up from the previous avatar.

Now I'm enjoying the last days of seeing Goodfella's psychotic Joe Pesci next to my name.

Next up I believe is the guy from the Sopranos, who going by my posting rate will be my accompaniment for a long time to come (I've not watched a single episode of Sopranos).

After that I believe it's Henry Hill, so getting back to Goodfella's territory.



Ah you should've seen my first 300-500 posts - nearly all dry tech and detailed talk limited to the hardware forums. I view some 2019 whippersnappers with equal disdain that they can 1 sentence post/flippant comment 10-20x a day and be racking up the post count.

Think yourself lucky. When you’ve made it all the way to 25k posts, you get rewarded with an avatar of a stupid looking fat dude.

7 years tomorrow, and I'm still not there.

 

[Greebo]

Can't remember but I come and go on here in spurts. I can have months where I am posting up to 100 posts per day and then have years without posting.

211 days.

First I worked out my posting rate using my post count and length of membership. Then I divided 1000 posts by my rate to get the number of days.

It’s not entirely true as I lost a load of posts in charity giveaways but it’s not a bad guess.

My estimate was I'd hit 1k in July 2019, which remained so up until about May. 2 months past due it's happened.

I have to say, having taken a cursory glance at the current active posts in the member's market, I'd say going overboard to reach it via a 1k post count may not be warranted.
