I limit myself strictly to informational, insightful posts that further our mutual understanding of the vintage cards we collect. Thusly, I have not attained 5k post status. When I do, the post will undoubtedly be as mutually beneficial as all my other posts.

To clarify, 5k means 5000.

Instead of editing the original post, I thought I would point out that the last sentence in the post I quoted above would probably read better if I had not left out the word "of". This sentence should read:

"When I do, the post will undoubtedly be as mutually beneficial as all OF my other posts." I think we can all agree how mutually beneficial this new post is.

This. Quality over quantity. Some people achieve both; not all.

Congrats on 1,000. Those last five posts must have been exhausting.

Except for the sudden 'relevance' diminishment seen in his last 4 posts, Scott probably has one of the highest ratio of quality posts on this forum. I would have about 1000 posts too, if I could just keep my attempts at humor at bay. I still think I attain a 20-25% usefulness/helpful/semi-interesting posting ratio.

Brian (I obviously think rather highly about the beneficial nature of my posts)

right this was addressed as slugging percentage....some have mostly singles 'nice cards' like ichiro...others have a lot more power and a much higher posting slugging percentage....

however the number of 5000 plus posters is still pretty small so to be a member of the 5000 hit club there is no discrimination as to lack of slugging percentage or other methodology...

5000 posts is an elite club. 29000 posts is more elite, only rivaled by the Archive Bros.... Every time I say Archive I think of Dorskind.
