abinidi Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 Hey ya'll, Just thought I'd take a minute and celebrate a milestone post with you. This is my 1000th post in the TCH forums. I first found TCH in September of 2003. I started hosting two of my domains here, and I've never looked back. Since then I've brought another 3 domains online, all through TCH servers. When I was investigating TCH, one of the things I liked best was the support provided in the forums. I registered for the forums, but didn't make my first post until December of 2004. In March of last year I "refound" the forums and began contributing (mostly in the Word Game thread, if that is considered "contributing"). Since then I've come to regard you all as part of my extended family. I'm so glad to be here, and glad that I can hopefully give back a little bit of what you all have given me. (Pass the tissue! ) Anyway, I just wanted to tell you all thanks and tell you how much I enjoy being a part of this community! Quote
TCH-Bruce Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 Lightweight Congratulations Paul And thanks for all the help you have been in the forums. Quote
TCH-Tim Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 mostly in the Word Game thread Good for bumping your post count. Quote
makaveli Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 yeah im on a forum where im in excess of 10k posts its worrying to think how much "forum time" that is! i do agree with abinidi this is what does seperate TCH from the rest, the some of the other options i have seen only allow email support, these forums are a great idea, and its my first port of call if anything ever goes wrong or i simply need a bit of help Quote
abinidi Posted May 4, 2006 Author Posted May 4, 2006 Lightweight True. You are after all in the lead, post count wise. However, there are only 27 people between us. Maybe someday I'll catch you... Quote
TCH-Don Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 Congratulations Paul And thanks for all your help Quote
wampthing Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 Congratulations Paul. When I grow up I want to be just like you. Quote
TCH-Bruce Posted May 5, 2006 Posted May 5, 2006 True. You are after all in the lead, post count wise. However, there are only 27 people between us. Maybe someday I'll catch you... I'll give you a chance to start catching up. I'll me gone for 6 days next week and then again in June. Quote
Guest Serpentine Posted May 5, 2006 Posted May 5, 2006 Ah, to have a post count like that. Maybe someday. Quote
Kevan Posted May 5, 2006 Posted May 5, 2006 What? Our posts count? Just kidding. I spent some deliberate time in word games just to drop the "newbie" moniker. Then I got hooked. Bruce's posts can be quite entertaining. anyway.. Congratulations Paul! Quote
chatbug Posted May 5, 2006 Posted May 5, 2006 Congratulations, Paul! Thanks for your contribution (among others) to questions I've posted on the forum so far! Quote
TCH-JimE Posted May 5, 2006 Posted May 5, 2006 Way to go Paul, I am glad your enjoying the forums! JimE Quote
cajunman4life Posted May 5, 2006 Posted May 5, 2006 When I grow up I want to be just like you. I didn't know you wanted to grow up Dave... lol, just kidding. Congratulations Paul! Looking forward to another thousand posts from you. Quote
abinidi Posted May 8, 2006 Author Posted May 8, 2006 So, as I look at my profile, this should be my 1016th post, however, somehow my post count got dropped, and is now only at 993. Where did 23 posts go? I mean, I had a bad weekend, but I didn't think that was related.... Quote
TCH-Bruce Posted May 8, 2006 Posted May 8, 2006 We are pruning (cleaning out old outdated posts) the database. A lot of counts are being affected. Quote
abinidi Posted May 8, 2006 Author Posted May 8, 2006 Ok. Okay. I guess I'll just have to get the milestone post twice... LOL Thanks, Bruce. Quote
TCH-Thomas Posted May 8, 2006 Posted May 8, 2006 I'll give you a chance to start catching up. I'll me gone for 6 days next week and then again in June. See the good side of it. Bruce fell down too, so now you dont have as many as before to catch up. Quote
abinidi Posted May 8, 2006 Author Posted May 8, 2006 Speaking of post count... The HG has been busy posting to the forums, apparently. Do you realize that he makes over 6400 posts per day? That's more than 4 posts per minute. And his posts total more than 5000% of the total forum posts... Very interesting in deed.... http://www.totalchoicehosting.com/forums/i....php?showuser=1 Quote
cajunman4life Posted May 8, 2006 Posted May 8, 2006 Yea, I saw his post count last night was over 8,000,000... maybe the pruned posts are going to him lol jk Quote
cajunman4life Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 I think he told me once he has a caffeine IV hooked up directly to his arm... something about sleep being over-rated... Just kidding Bill... Quote
cajunman4life Posted May 10, 2006 Posted May 10, 2006 HG's current post count: 8,388,607 (as of this writing). A few possible ideas on how he arrived there: He posted each of the 26 letters of the English alphabet. Roughly 322,638 times each. He got extremely bored one night and typed out the works of Shakespeare... each word being a new post. He didn't fail; he figured out 8,388,606 ways how not to write a post. He was participating in the Vonage "Thanks a Million!" contest, and nobody told him to stop posting... Whatever the case may be, we sure know he wasn't posting about service upgrades and new features! (heavy sarcasm) Just kidding Bill! Now I got bored and actually sat down and typed this out. Thanks a Million for all you do! (no pun intended) Quote
