Dude, for a guy who’s only been here for about two years and a mentor already, you are on fire!

The question is, why do you want to know? What is it you are looking for and why?

He's coming for us!! We should pick up the pace for a bit again.
You know, just to keep him down

I will continue to post as i do. Most post are worthless but now and then i get lucky. Ha. I dont think about post count very much. I just try to help other when i can. But, i will say that maybe i post a bit more than most. I got to do something when im standing doing nothing but watching gas flow thru a hose.

Qick, someone write a program and enter all the info. That shouldnt take long, right?

var u[] = SELECT DISTINCT USER from USERS wHERE count(USER_POST_COUNT) > 0;
foreach (user i in u)
{
[add user and post count to a collection];
}
[sort collection by descending post count]

???
English please.

Seriously? Stop trying to up your count man! What about that didn’t make sense to you?


Bahahaha

I’m surprised I’m on the first page actually.
Some of you gents span all the threads, keep the entire site lively.
Me, I just lurk in the workshop and bbq threads mostly.
These days, reading far more than posting..
Enjoyed watch8ng your scale skills develop Jerry. Was a fast progression into nice looking stuff.

There are threads that I will stumble upon and simply read but will not comment.
Often because I know too little of the particular subject and am still learning to shut up, sometimes because my contribution would simply echo what others had already said so I just like and thank.
But sometimes I feel like a new member chiming in where it's not his place, like at Thanksgiving dinner at a friend's house..
In regard to the rift that happened when I was gone, I'll say that it was a very terrible feeling to type in SRP into the address bar and find that this special place was gone.
Very terrible feeling.
When I realized you were all still here I shouted out loud, YES!
Sometimes I'm a bit of an idiot, say stupid things, still learning that old saying "Don't miss a good opportunity to shut up"... in the end I realize why we are here. A common interest that brings us together, and through that some great friendships are gained.
As far as number of posts, I admit that I've looked at likes and thanks for a feeling of my own acceptance, but I shouldn't.
But the number of posts, I usually see those high numbers and think "dang this guy is a veteran of the craft".
And the years active, as a brotherhood I feel that I'm a little late on.
Hopefully my life allows me more time with you gentlemen, and hopefully you can put up with me long enough to get past my quirks.
Sorry that was so long!

Michael — the nice thing about SRP is everyone is welcome to the table! It is a blessing that we feel like family, when most of us have never met each other!

Ok well let’s not forget that the names on that page are only the names of men who have posted in the last 6 months. Who knows what would happen if we had all the greats from the past like edhewitt back on the list.

Wait! No, you’re still there one the first page just below 10Pups. I miss that guy!

I’m last on the page at 50!! I better start yapping before gasman puts me on page two lol!

We are truly a living and vibrant community. Some people have been here from the beginning, others have just joined, some have taken short or extended breaks, some have left and don't think they'll ever return.
But it's a special place, where as Harold said everyone is welcome like at the family table.
What brought us here is our shared hobby, but I think that's not what keeps us here. I think what binds us is our values and sharing our lives with each other

It's fun to look at numbers but I know that everyone is here because they enjoy being here and that's what's important. Some post a lot, others read a lot, some check in on occasion, others daily or even hourly. To me it's all good since each of us is unique and in a unique situation - this is what makes each of us irreplaceable, why we need each other and why together we make a community that's better than any of us alone
