that's an indication of people with more free time on this hand (caused by high unemployment rate and generous unemployment benefits?), and wider access to the internet.

Total number of posts is not necessarily a good indicator of how much free time one has. A better one (albeit not perfect either) is the "posts per day" number. Now, let's see the 10K motley crew:

clawson 19.08
theusch 5.50
bobgardner 4.70
js 3.89
JohanEkdahl 3.36

The presumptive next little gangster:

Koshchi 4.46

Now millwood, for some self-insight, click this.

And as far as I know, all of these are employed.

millwood,

I'm getting the feeling that you actually have nothnig better to do then insulting people......

why?

you could have shown everybody that js was wrong by ignoring him hand actully helping others.

the last number of posts now even all include at least 1 bad remark towards js.

do you want to be banned that much?

please stop making a complete idiot of yourself and either keep quite or be constructive in helping people without snearing at one or another....

@Koshchi 5 posts to go... should not be that hard to do....
or are you also going to try and prospone it like js, clawson and JohanEkdahl tried ???

But all those people DO provide their real names, their actual employers, home addresses and even their photos in many cases, because they are NOT FRAUDS.

They have nothing to hide including their racial background (if that's a problem with you).

As far as their bank accounts no need for that, they are all rich and we all know that. I'll look up your bank account now, see how rich you are.

And, by the way, many of us will shortly be celebrating our 10th anniversary on this forum. What is the longest stretch you have managed before getting banned? No lying now, remember I can check things out.

Didn't even think about a 10 year anniversary coming up! Shocked
But I'm severely behind in my post number, probably cause I work while I'm at work and sleep at night like we're suppose to. Cool
A few years away from this wonderful place didn't help my numbers either. Embarassed

I was curious to see who has been around the longest and still active. Looks like theusch, then EW, but I can't display more then 50 members. I'm a few months after these guys but not sure how far down the tree.

Yet another bug in the deteriorated forum s/w. You can fix it by adding &start=50 (and so on) to the URL for the member listing.

Looks like JS already made a list, or should I say the the A-list.

And concerning the "view while working" scenario, I remember the complaints a lot of users made when the "new" web layout came out with the geeky mascot at the top. Didn't look enough like a tech website and users didn't want their boss knowing they weren't working. Very Happy

A long way from being "significant" Wink

Actually, if you hover your mouse over your stars, you will see the truth.

congratulations Koshchi.

you now also is an very wise man Smile

enjoy while you can, before you know it you are over the 20K and then it again is all normal practice. ( perfect example = cliff who went warp factor 10 after he broke the 10K barrier)
