5000 net54 Post Club Thread

[1952boyntoncollector]

Just like 500 homers and 3000 hits and 300 wins...there is the 5000 post net54 club...

Some day when i get there, I will get to rub elbows with the bnorths of the world and ulmandds, republicaninmass, peter S., clydepepper and the like...

i know its rare air to be in this company.

i hope i am worthy.....from this point on in the thread, the hope is only people with 5000 or more posts (or someone closing in on the record) on net54 to post their wise opinions on this thread and grab a drink ,

as with ichiro his march to 3000 was different than other 3000 hit players...many of his hits were singles aka 'nice card' and not doubles or homers (analysis of blank back/error cards)


welcome all (worthy members ) to the 5000 post club!

[bnorth]

I would grab a drink with anyone on here.

I don't think I got many singles associated with my posts.

Like me or hate me I can guarantee I have never lied on this forum or screwed over a single member in what has to be close to 1000 transactions by now.

Have a great day everyone!

I'm not sure if the 5,000+ posts I have made are as 'noteworthy' as the others...just retired with too much time on my hands...and my rate has decreased since I lost the fire of collecting. (once you sell a Babe the writing's on the wall)

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.

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.

[buymycards]

There are currently 26 members who have exceeded 5000 posts. Here is the list.

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

I'm on the list. Is there a cash prize? How about a medal? Just a woo hoo would suffice.

[Exhibitman]

Will we accept Kellogg's in lieu of Posts?

[kmac32]

Not ready for the Hall of Fame Net54 style quite yet! LOL

[brianp-beme]

Thankfully since the original post almost two years ago, I was able to lay the 5k golden egg, which of course has secured my lofty position within this community, and therefore so shall this be my last post in this thread.

Brian (unless I just can't resist posting something again)

Leon, does the guy on the far left with the long bamboo fishing pole, something he would have adored, look like Rube Wadell or what. Posted this to get my count up, although I am still playing AA ball.

[esd10]

I've been on this board since 2010 and I'm getting close to 1000 post so I have a long ways to go to reach 5k

Looks like 2085.

Thanks for the set up.

[egri]

I just hit ten years here last month, and this is my 1,841st post. At that rate, I should reach 5,000 posts sometime around 2042.

Keep on the effort, rome wasnt build in day etc..


Another Stat to consider on the back of our net54 cards besides 5000 hit club...

Number of threads started with 100 posts on the thread, 200 posts etc. (bumps dont count those are unearned runs)

Number of threads started that Leon had to lock

Number of threads started where poster was reminded the same thread already done

A good thread starter is like a good lead off hitter....some can start a good threat but the 'heavy hitters' on the board due the clean up hitting a number of time that cause a lot more posts ..


Quickest time listing a card to 'ill take it'

And like an ofer, how many posts for card in sale in a row where it ended with no sale or send to auction, ill keep it...

hitting streak- number of cards for sale where ends with 'ill take it'..

You forgot Best Closer... meaning "thread-killer".

The person who's made the most posts to terminate a thread. I might rank within the Top 10 of this infamous category.

In the individual thread category of "most posts on a thread" Rob / ooo-ribay is like Cy Young with games won : never to be beaten
