I do try to contribute from time to time but I usually bow to those higher up the hobby food chain than I - and there are lots of those.

I have enjoyed this forum...most fun since I quit playing.

well some people in the Hall of Fame are Babe Ruth and others are Harold Baines...

theres only 29 people that reached 4950 posts..yes its not a race and content means more than posts..but interesting that its just 29 people..

Like Mr Culpepper I am also retired and have been for some time. That accounts for many of my posts, I just have a ton of free time. I have averaged 2.39 posts a day.

Only 26? I figured it would be more.

didn't figure I'd be in that group either, but I guess being around a long time gets it done...

Maybe we should have a card set of our own? Sort of like the old Topps 1000 yard gainer inserts or something.

Maybe ... I've been around since before the last major site change (and introduction of 'Archive' ) like maybe sometime in '07-08 originally, but my posting has been sporadic at best. 5000 is a pipe dream.

It's time to establish the brand new advanced stat of PEBL (Posts Excluding Bump Lingo).

If the number of 'bumps' (and other ways of bumping a thread) were eliminated from my count, I'd probably be down to around 150 total posts...and I ain't alone.

Do you have a lot of 'ballast' in your post count number? Figure it out with PEBL.

If collecting the set looks like we got 6 /26 of the 5000 post club on here thus far. Some of those 26 may not be active or not allowed to post here..

Looks like I have upped my average posts per day to a whopping 2.46 now.
